Northern Territory Primary Health Care Network — Wall Map

A clear, region-wide view of primary health care delivery across the Northern Territory

This Northern Territory Primary Health Care Network (PHN) Wall Map provides a practical, wall-ready overview of how primary health care is organised and delivered across one of Australia’s most geographically complex jurisdictions. Designed to support planning, commissioning, and coordination, it translates system-level health delivery into a clear geographic reference for everyday use.

Funded by the Australian Government, Primary Health Networks play a central role in improving access, equity, and outcomes in primary health care. In the Northern Territory—where remoteness, distance, and dispersed populations shape service delivery—this map brings essential spatial clarity to decision-making.

🩺 The Three Core Functions of PHNs

This wall map supports and reflects the three core PHN responsibilities:

• Coordinate & integrate care
  Working in partnership with Local Hospital Networks (LHNs) and regional services to improve quality of care, patient experience, and efficient use of resources.

• Commission services
  Planning and funding primary care and mental health services to address population health needs, service gaps, access challenges, and equity—particularly in remote and very remote communities.

• Capacity-build & support providers
  Strengthening general practice, Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Services, allied health, and mental health providers through practice support and system coordination.

🗺️ Why a PHN Wall Map Matters in the Northern Territory

Government primary health care wall maps are powerful visual planning and communication tools. In the NT context, this map helps users to:

• Visualise PHN coverage across vast and remote regions

• Support commissioning, outreach, and service-planning discussions

• Understand distances, regional relationships, and access constraints

• Brief staff, partners, and stakeholders quickly and consistently

• Improve transparency and shared understanding of health service delivery

By grounding policy and planning in geography, this map supports more informed decisions and more equitable health outcomes.
