Description
Rural health settings face challenges in delivering and sustaining health services for their communities. Performance in rural health settings can be constrained by resources, staffing and the tyranny of distance from major centres. This research set out to determine how innovation might contribute to solutions and used a case study methodology to understand the organisational and contextual factors that support innovation in rural health settings. Further, the research examined how publicly available health data can be used to describe performance in rural health services through visualisation and the assembly of measures reflecting access, equity, quality, safety, sustainability and employee engagement.
