North Western Melbourne Primary Health Network (NWMPHN) has been working with Safer Care Victoria (SCV) to establish and manage a community of practice that promotes cross-sector collaboration and communication. It aims to build relationships, knowledge, trust and efficiencies across the local asthma care system. As this structure matures it has a potential “system stewardship” role whereby local stakeholders, vested in asthma care, can work collaboratively to identify areas for attention and to drive ongoing local improvements.
