The Association has a history of active involvement in projects and services to improve health and healthcare services in the local region

Improving Management of CKD in patients with Type 2 Diabetes

In this project organized by the MDMPA, General Practices are analyzing their practice data to improve the care of patients with Type 2 Diabetes who also have kidney disease.

Healthicare Neighbourhood Health Hub

MDMPA in collaboration with the PHN WentWest and other stakeholders have envisioned a neighbourhood health hub here in Western Sydney. Healthicare has opened and is taking patients who do not have regular GPs and is also available to assist local GPs with their complex care patients and provide additional supports to existing GP teams. See the website for more details. https://healthicare.org.au/

 

Healthy Environment, Healthy People

MDMPA is working to support schools with grants for chilled water coolers to reduce plastic waste and encourage reduced consumption of sugar sweetened beverages.
