Tender Description

In mid-2021, PHNs with local government areas (LGA) under extended stay-at-home orders, or declared areas of concern, were funded to establish temporary ("pop-up") Head to Health clinics. In South Eastern NSW, a Head to Health pop-up clinic was established in the Shellharbour LGA in September 2021. This will be replaced with a permanent 'Head to Health Shellharbour LGA & Surrounds' from July 2023 providing immediate access to mental health supports to people from hard-to-reach groups, who are also facing socioeconomic barriers to service access.

On 21 April 2023, the Commonwealth announced funding for 'Head to Health Moruya'. The choice of location was informed by analysis of the population data, service and workforce gaps, current and existing pandemic response activities in the region, and with input from Southern Local Health District. Significant sections of the community in the Eurobodalla LGA face socioeconomic barriers to service access. This initiative is designed to break down those barriers. The new location in Moruya needs to support high accessibility via public transport and be easily accessible for vulnerable persons.

People living in the Eurobodalla LGA and surrounding areas will be eligible to use the service.

Successful respondents will be required to enter into a Service Agreement with COORDINARE. Funding recipients will be required to provide progress reports on agreed milestones and achieve performance outcomes and measures. The format and framework for progress reports and measures may take account of the size, costs, complexity, relative risks, service model and other considerations of the project being undertaken.
