As Australia has been rapidly gearing up its response to all aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic, our focus has continued to be on helping primary care and our funded service providers to respond to this crisis and translate policy changes into practical advice and support.
Current circumstances dictate that we do this differently and innovate in ways we never thought possible until recently.
In order to do our part to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus in the community, we will be working remotely for the foreseeable future.
A small group of staff remain in our Perth office for logistical reasons, and we thank them for their dedication during this challenging time.
However, we are working towards closing our offices entirely in the near future.
Business will continue with our main switch number (08) 6272 4900 and email address info@wapha.org.au still in operation.
Staff can be contacted via their usual phone number and email address.
We have well established virtual capability and will be working to ensure business continuity for planned meetings and activities to support practices, commissioned service providers and our key stakeholders.
All our staff are working hard to respond to the COVID-19 situation, ensuring access to primary healthcare continues across the state.
We are providing regular updates to primary healthcare providers to ensure they are well informed with the evolving COVID-19 pandemic.
We encourage you to visit our Practice Assist, COVID-19 web pages which are our main source of up to date evidence-based information on COVID-19, both at a national and state level.
We appreciate your patience and support during this uncertain time and look forward to working together in this new way of doing business.
