Making healthcare fairer means addressing poverty 📢 Poverty has a profound impact on health and access to healthcare. Everyone deserves to get the care they need, regardless of their income.

This Anti-Poverty Week, our CEO Clare Mullen is adding her voice to No Place for Poverty’s Voices for Change campaign.

Poverty isn’t inevitable. We can change the systems and conditions that shape people’s lives. Organisational leaders can help build support for those changes by speaking up and challenging assumptions.

We encourage our partners across health and community services to add their voices. Share the campaign, start a conversation within your organisation and visit No Place for Poverty’s website to explore practical action.

Let’s make healthcare fair for all.

📢 Let's make healthcare fair for all.

Everyone in Western Australia deserves healthcare that is accessible, safe, compassionate and centred around their needs.

But fair healthcare is also about what happens when we seek care.

🔸 Are we listened to?
🔸Do we understand our healthcare options?
🔸Do we have a say in decisions about our care?
🔸Are our individual needs, backgrounds and experiences respected?

Good healthcare starts with listening, everyone deserves to be heard, understood and included.

At Health Consumers' Council WA, we work to make sure the voices and experiences of patients, carers and communities help shape better healthcare across our state.

Consumer representatives bring their experiences of healthcare into decisions that affect others.

Your contribution deserves recognition, support and meaningful action.

It's 📢 YOU live with your condition 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. YOU know what is normal, you know what has helped, what has not, and when something has changed.

The theme this year is “Safe care for noncommunicable diseases”, and we join patients and patient organisations around the world in calling for patients and families to be recognised as partners in safe care.

Health professionals bring clinical expertise. Patients and families bring lived expertise. Safe care needs both.
