Learning about the planning framework for health

The Metropolitan Health Strategy has primarily been developed as a framework for health planning for the next five to ten years.

But for members of the broader community with a deep interest in health issues reading the strategy will:

• Enhance your understanding of the challenges facing the health system,
• How Victoria is addressing the issues, and
• What the system will look like in years to come

Countries around the world are also facing many of the challenges being faced in Victoria.

There is wide recognition that Victoria has a world-class health system. But there will always be more that can be done.

We encourage you to read the Summary Booklet including the Area Profiles. Together they provide a good overview of what has occurred most recently and the next phase of infrastructure, equipment and services.

If you wish to learn more you are welcome to read the strategy paper and other related documents.
