Cabrini health has actively sought partnerships with the primary care community to promote greater cross-sector engagement and to strengthen the provision of person-centred, accessible and integrated care. The initial work has shown a 70% reduction in the number of hospital readmissions among people with heart failure and respiratory conditions through the provision of community based programmes involving education and person-to-person care.
