The Central West Gippsland Division of General Practice Inc is an incorporated
association of General Practitioners working to improve health care in our
community. We are one of 120 divisions established to assist and represent GPs
throughout Australia and are governed by a Board of Directors comprising local
GPs.
The Division provides support and services for and on behalf of General
Practitioners. We aim to assist GPs to deliver quality care and improved health
outcomes for the local community. We maintain a focus on the health and well
being of GPs as well as providing opportunities to improve their professional
skills and knowledge. Partnerships continue to be established and strengthened
with surrounding divisions, primary care, acute care and other health service
providers.
Our region encompasses Drouin, Warragul, Neerim South, Trafalgar, Moe,
Newborough, Morwell, Churchill and Traralgon representing over 100 GP and GP
Registrar members, and a community of more than 100,000 people. Membership of
our Division is extended to all GPs and GP Registrars who practice in this
area. Other GPs may become associate members.
The Central West Gippsland Division of General Practice has been very successful
in establishing major health programs that not only address the national health
priorities, but also work towards the specific needs of our local community.
