WACHS Strategic Plan 2019-24: Message from the Chief Executive
The WACHS Strategic Plan 2019–24 guides the future of the WA Country Health Service for the next five years and beyond.
This plan is the culmination of months of consultation and collaboration with our staff, stakeholders and partners across the many country communities in Western Australia in which we operate. A five year plan set against a fifteen year horizon, this plan provides a roadmap for achievement of a sustainable future, and one which sees greater equity for country communities.
It articulates our overarching mission which is to deliver and advance high quality care for country WA communities. This reflects the important work we already do but highlights that we can always do more, and our desire to advance healthcare for country communities drives us to achieve this.
Our vision is to be a global leader in rural and remote healthcare. In many ways, we are already achieving this, as many of our service innovations are world-leading.
Our values reflect the fabric of our organisation and its culture – Community, Compassion, Quality, Integrity, Equity and Curiosity. These have been refreshed based on feedback and aim to ensure that we remain particularly focused on addressing disadvantage and remain ever-vigilant in finding more effective ways to deliver high value health care.
On behalf of the WACHS Executive, I thank the many people who contributed to the development of this important plan and to the many more who will contribute to its achievement. The implementation of this plan will guide the delivery of outstanding and trusted health care to the communities in which we live and work, now and into the future.

Chief Executive, WA Country Health Service
