HACC Active Service Model Statewide Seminar - 3 May 2010

The HACC Active Service Model Statewide Seminar was a one day event that sought to provide HACC funded service providers with a shared understanding and some useful learnings as they commence implementation, following the release of the HACC Active Service Model Implementation Plan.

The Department of Health outlined its expectations of the ASM initiative and support to be provided to agencies. The Keynote speakers reflected on their experience of adopting similar wellness and restorative approaches in Australia and overseas. Victorian service providers also shared their experience of key areas of implementation.

The seminar was targeted towards managers, clinicians and direct care staff from HACC services across Victoria and took place at Moonee Valley Racecourse, Moonee Ponds.

Information and presentations from the seminar are available below.
