Launch of the Integrated Chronic Disease Management Online Clearinghouse
Date published: 2009-09-03 15:29:12
The Clearinghouse has been developed to hold practical resources and tools used by chronic disease services and initiatives, plus brief explanations of their development and use.
It includes a range of assessment tools, evaluation tools and frameworks, position statements, guidelines, pathways, policies, patient education materials, health professional education materials, planning tools and more.
The Clearinghouse is openly accessible so that anyone can search and access resources, as well as contribute their own practical tools and resources. It is intended to reduce the duplication of, and expedite access to, practical unpublished tools and resources for all health services, as well as reduce the growing burden upon those health services running well-established and innovative Victorian chronic disease initiatives by providing an efficient mechanism for the sharing of learnings and resources.
The Clearinghouse can be found online.
All Victorian clinicians and services are encouraged to use and contribute to the Clearinghouse, including but not limited to:
- Early Intervention in Chronic Disease initiatives
- community health services
- HARP-CDM programs
- Primary Care Partnership staff and member agencies
- Divisions of General Practice
