Residents have the chance to have their say on the future priorities of East Grampians Health.
EGHS board chair Nancy Panter said the development of the Strategic Plan is one of the most important roles of the board as it shapes and guides what the organisation is, what it does and why it does it.
"We're excited to invite the community, our staff, Visiting Medical Officers and volunteers to identify priorities for the future of our organisation," she said.
The board has appointed Claire Edwards of TAG Health to facilitate the strategic planning process.
"Once our Strategic Plan is developed, and approved by the Minister of Health, the Board will monitor it to ensure we continue to deliver high quality health services that serve our community and beyond," Ms Panter said.
