Abstract
Ageing populations, overcrowded hospitals and emergency departments, increases in the numbers of people with chronic diseases and mental health concerns, consumer demands for improvements in health care services and access to new discoveries and technologies, struggling health budgets with a reduced focus on prevention and health promotion — these are just some of the global health challenges facing many countries, including Australia.
