What is it for?

Planning our health system starts with you. This census of the whole Port Lincoln community is the first major step in unravelling the many different ways we all use health services. Your views and opinions are key to planning how services should be developed in the coming decades. For the first time, we can gain a clear picture of how the whole system works for a community; from hospitals to mental health to support from friends and family.


Why Port Lincoln?

Port Lincoln is the only city in Australia especially selected for this health census.
Port Lincoln’s mix of ages, cultures and industries in a remote setting provides an excellent snapshot of how Australians use their health system


Why should I be involved?

Taking 10 minutes to fill-in the census will make a real difference. To get the complete picture of health in Port Lincoln we need everybody’s input.
