The first Victorian Refugee Health Network (the Network) Primary Care Forum was held on Tuesday 26 August 2014 at Foundation House in Brunswick. The Primary Care Forum was organised in response to the increasing interest and growing size of the Network’s Primary Care Working Group. A review of the Network conducted in 2014 recommended holding fewer, but larger primary care events or meetings in order to ensure the structure of the Network and its primary care activities remain flexible and responsive to the changing context and needs of the sector.
