What is a Community Health Hub?
The Community Health Hub is a central, purpose-built space where people with complex health needs can easily access the care and support they require.
Scope
We transformed the interior of the building to create a safe, modern and welcoming Community Health Hub, featuring:
- Clinical spaces and healthcare consultation rooms for treatment and support services.
- A drop-in zone with kitchen space, laundry facilities, showers and toilets to support the wellbeing of vulnerable community members.
Benefits
Better access to care: The Community Health Hub will be a welcoming place for people to access health, social and treatment services.
Health-led approach: Treating drug harm as a health issue with compassionate, coordinated support.
Reduced pressure on emergency services: Helping people before they reach crisis point.
Safer communities: Outreach and harm reduction initiatives that improve public health and local amenity.
Partners
This project was delivered by the Victorian Health Building Authority in partnership with:
- cohealth
- Department of Health
- Lyons Architecture
- Lendlease.
