Effectiveness of a Digital Screening and Navigation Model in Addressing Unmet Social Needs among Parents and Caregivers in Priority Population Groups
Introduction: Children and families from priority populations (e.g. culturally and linguistically diverse and regional/rural communities) often experience significant psychosocial challenges and barriers to accessing health and social care. These inequities were further exacerbated during the COVID-19 pandemic. Integrating social care with health services has been proposed as an approach to improve service access and address unmet needs. Methods:…
Reterritorialising paediatric care in general practice clinics through a GP-paediatrician integrated care model
Evidence is building exploring the efficacy of general practitioner (GP)-paediatrician integrated care models in improving the quality of paediatric primary care and reducing GP referrals to outpatient clinics and emergency departments. However, contemporary research has not adequately explored the mechanisms of change within these models to best support their sustainability and scalability. Our analysis involved interviews and focus groups with …
Impact of an integrated general practitioner(GP)- paediatrician model on GP hospital referrals and GP paediatric care
Introduction: Like many countries, Australia’s hospital system is under pressure with pre-school children comprising the largest proportion of all primary care-type emergency department presentations. General practitioners (GPs) must refer patients to specialists and waiting times to see specialists in paediatric hospital clinics are up to 12 months. We therefore aimed to see if a new model of care, Strengthening Care for Children (SC4C), could r…
HealthPathways spread, scale and sustainability
HealthPathways is an online decision support tool available at no cost to local healthcare workers, with primary usage aimed at local General Practitioners (GPs). HealthPathways programs are made of multiple ‘pathways’ containing practical, concise, evidence-based information intended to be used during a patient consult. The main types of pathways are clinical or referral pathways, they guide GPs on patient assessment, management and when and whe…
A Preliminary Trial of an Early Surveillance Program for Autism and Developmental Delays within General Practices
There are inequities in engagement with established early childhood developmental surveillance programs, eclipsing disadvantaged families. The current study sought to address this by dovetailing developmental surveillance with immunization visits and other opportunistic contacts with children at general practices). While 53 General Practices were recruited, significant COVID-19 disruptions resulted in only 81 children being screened (both parent-…

Knowledge co-creation in participatory policy and practice
Engaging citizens with digital technology to co-create data, information and knowledge has widely become an important strategy for informing the policy response to COVID-19 and the 'infodemic' of misinformation in cyberspace. This move towards digital citizen participation aligns well with the United Nations' agenda to encourage the use of digital tools to enable data-driven, direct democracy. From data capture to information generation, and know…
A Realist Synthesis of Literature Informing Programme Theories for Well Child Care in Primary Health Systems of Developed Economies
We conclude that Well-child Care policy and program leaders should shift their focus to the integration of: human and physical resources; policy instruments; and shared agreement on outcomes measures across health, social and education sectors. In addition, countries should work towards strengthening universal early education programs and parents' health literacy regarding child development, health and safety

EHealth and Integrated Primary Health Care Centres
Background: Integrated primary health care (PHC) relies on connectivity and seamless information-sharing across primary, secondary, acute, aged and social care. eHealth tools can promote a better patient journey and avoid duplication of care processes such as pathology and imaging or unplanned attendances at emergency departments and hospitalisations.Conceptual framework: This encompasses integration, Informatics Capability Maturity (ICM), multid…
Integrated Health Care – a population health approach in South Western Sydney
Wollondilly Shire is a heterogeneous rural community (population 45,000) in the South Western Sydney growth corridor. The Wollondilly Health Alliance (WHA), a partnership between South Western Sydney Local Health District (SWSLHD), South Western Sydney Medicare Local (SWSML) and Wollondilly Shire Council (WSC), was established in 2013 to address increasing needs for health services in the region.

Factors Influencing Access to Urban General Practices and Primary Health Care by Aboriginal Australians-A Qualitative Study
This paper aims to explore the barriers and facilitators for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians with chronic disease to access urban, mainstream general practice and primary health care. Six focus groups and five interviews were conducted with 40 participants that included Aboriginal people with diabetes, health service providers and policy makers. Using diabetes as the exemplar, participants were asked to relate their own experien…
Reflections on 'Aboriginalising' the Research Process
This article describes the way a multidisciplinary research team set about 'Aboriginalising' their research processes in the initial phase of a project that aimed to develop a culturally appropriate model of care for urban Aboriginal people with diabetes. Although academic conventions and protocols tended to dominate, the project incorporated the innovative approach that the Aboriginal researchers brought to the process of recruiting and facilita…
Using multimedia to assist students with communication skills and biopsychosocial integration
This paper reports on the development rationale and evaluation of a computer facilitated learning (CFL) package which aimed to assist medical students with their clinical communication skills and develop an integrated biopsychosocial approach to identifying a patient's problems. Using a formative evaluation framework developed at the University of Melbourne the CFL package, Communicating with the Tired Patient, underwent a three stage review. Ini…
