A document has been released to outline a proposed new cluster structure for Greater Western Area Health Service (GWAHS).

At the core of the proposed Cluster Structure is the reduction in the number of Clusters and the strengthening of Cluster management to allow local health service managers the ability to focus on the delivery of core clinical services. The existing Clusters will be aggregated into four Clusters each with a dedicated Cluster Executive Team.

The document explains the factors underlying the change, the proposed Cluster model and benefits of the new structure to the community and organisation. It provides a map of the proposed Clusters and organisation chart.
