Reports

YNLHN Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan

The Yorke and Northern Local Health Network Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan May 2023 – May 2024 outlines the YNLHN’s commitment to reconciliation by focusing on building relationships and creating meaningful opportunities through relationships, respect, opportunities and governance.

Disability Access and Inclusion Plan

The YNLHN Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (PDF 3MB) outlines how we will ensure our services and workplaces are inclusive, accessible and responsive to people living with a disability.

 The plan focuses on:

  • Improving accessibility across services
  • Building workforce capability
  • Strengthening consumer engagement
  • Delivering equitable care  

The plan is a living document and will be formally reviewed on an annual basis, incorporating consumer, community, staff and stakeholder feedback to ensure we continue to identify and address the emerging needs of those living with, caring for or providing services to people with disability.  

We extend sincere thanks to the many people who have contributed their time, insight and experience to shape this strategy, and the value of the diverse voices of priority populations across our network. Your perspectives help us understand the different ways people access, experience and navigate care.
