Engage with us!

Opportunities exist within the North West HHS to join us as a consumer, which means partnering with us in many ways including helping to co-design services, provide feedback on health plans and initiatives, join committees and consumer advisory groups, and review publications.

We’re particularly looking for new consumers to join our Consumer Advisory Networks and Groups. These groups meet quarterly to the health needs of the community and hear from Executive members and NWHHS staff about current issues and opportunities. 

Current consumer groups:

• Mount Isa/Camooweal Consumer Advisory Network
• Cloncurry Consumer Advisory Network
• Normanton Consumer Advisory Group
• Burketown Consumer Advisory Group
• Karumba Consumer Advisory Group
• Julia Creek Consumer Advisory Network
