LINK Innovation funding now open

Metro North Hospital and Health Service is seeking innovative ideas on a collaborative approach with community partners to drive improvements in health service delivery.

The Leading Innovation through Networking and Knowledge-sharing (LINK) initiative is an opportunity to work with partners to improve patient experiences, outcomes, continuity and quality of care and funding for this $1 million scheme is now open.

The focus of the initiative is to collaboratively address the areas of hospital admission and discharge practices, and avoidance of unnecessary hospital admissions and readmissions.

It’s all about integrated and connected care and ensuring MNHHS works in partnership to deliver the right care, at the right place, at the right time.

Health professionals are encouraged to share this information through their hospitals, services and networks to encourage teams to get involved in this great initiative.

External partners are encouraged to approach potential partners within Metro North Hospital and Health Service to start the discussions about innovative ideas and solutions for integrated and connected care.

There are three funding streams for large, medium and small projects.

For more information on the initiative and how to propose a LINK idea, please contact metronorthengage@health.qld.gov.au or visit our Link Funding Page.
