12 Feb 2025

The Car­diac Care Statewide Clin­i­cal Network’s vision is to ensure all South Aus­tralians liv­ing with or at risk of car­dio­vas­cu­lar dis­ease can access high qual­i­ty care and ser­vices to achieve the best out­comes for them­selves, their fam­i­lies and the com­mu­ni­ty as a whole.

Statewide Clin­i­cal Net­works (SCNs) are an impor­tant engage­ment struc­ture to con­nect clin­i­cal experts, con­sumers, and oth­er col­lab­o­ra­tors on agreed pri­or­i­ties to improve the South Aus­tralian health system. 

We are com­mit­ted to pro­vid­ing the oppor­tu­ni­ty for con­sumers of car­diac ser­vices to share their voic­es and expe­ri­ences to help dri­ve the plan­ning and deliv­ery of health­care ser­vices and improve health out­comes for South Australians. 

We are look­ing for peo­ple with lived expe­ri­ence of car­dio­vas­cu­lar dis­ease as a con­sumer (patient), carer/​support per­son or com­mu­ni­ty mem­ber who: 

  • are pas­sion­ate about improv­ing car­diac care, patient expe­ri­ences and sup­port for their families 
  • can com­mu­ni­cate effec­tive­ly, work well in a team and are good prob­lem solvers 
  • are avail­able to par­tic­i­pate in activ­i­ties of the Steer­ing Com­mit­tee, includ­ing face to face meet­ings, work­ing groups and some work con­duct­ed between meetings. 

All appli­ca­tions will be reviewed, and appli­cants will be noti­fied of the out­come. Mem­ber­ship will be con­struct­ed to reflect the nec­es­sary mix of knowl­edge, expe­ri­ence and skills to sup­port the Car­diac Care Statewide Clin­i­cal Net­work to ful­fil its responsibilities. 

Appli­ca­tions close Fri­day, 28 Feb­ru­ary 2025.
