Sydney Health Partners
NSLHD is one of five founding partners of Sydney Health Partners, along with Western Sydney and Sydney local health districts, Sydney Children’s Hospital Network and the University of Sydney.
In 2019, Sydney Health Partners developed a three-year strategy, intensifying its commitment to translating research into better health outcomes. As part of the strategy, each of the founding partner members took leadership of a strategic platform of health and medical research translation. NSLHD is leading what is known as the “Platform Three” projects, a program of work designed to reduce the barriers to conducting research across the partner organisations. This has been an intensive program of work involving research support staff from across the different partner local health districts (LHDs).
Key achievements to date include: › The development of a combined ethics calendar, hosted on the Sydney Health Partners website, which enables researchers to search for the next available ethics meeting to submit their project for review › The development of a streamlined governance review process, which ensures that all governance requirements are based on policy and are consistent across partner LHDs › The development of a research passport that will allow researchers working in multiple LHDs to undergo the credentialling process just once in one LHD, and for that credentialling to be recognised across all partner LHDs › The development of a research support map for each LHD, to assist researchers in identifying the available support
The relationship between Sydney Health Partners and NSLHD is strong and positive, and we look forward to working together and further developing this relationship over the next year.
