Podcast opportunity for lived experience voices

Background

COORDINARE is the South Eastern NSW Primary Health Network (PHN), operating in one of the largest regional and rural populations of NSW. We aim to improve the health and wellbeing of the community by helping people to make informed choices, funding services to address local health care needs, and supporting health professionals to provide exceptional care and deliver better consumer experiences.

COORDINARE is partnering with Co-Equal to develop a series of podcasts for people to provide a lived experience perspective on what it's like to access local mental health services in in the region, and share ideas about how to improve help-seeking experiences for all. The podcasts are designed to be a lived experience-led educational tool for mental health service providers to inform person-centred, recovery-oriented, and trauma-informed service design and delivery for public mental health services.

The podcast will explore topics such as:

  • barriers to help-seeking
  • assertive outreach approaches
  • service navigation
  • the importance of recovery-oriented, person-centred care
  • the scope of peer work practice
  • what is required to sustain a peer workforce.
