Timboon and District Healthcare Service

Timboon and District Healthcare Service (TDHS) is a multipurpose service providing a range of health services to the Timboon and surrounding areas. The Consumer Advisory Committee (CAC) is composed of Community Representatives (Volunteers), Timboon P12 School Representatives (Volunteers) and TDHS team members. Our CAC members increase the consumer and community voice in how services are provided, raise issues of concern to TDHS consumers and their carers, assist TDHS to stay in touch with what is important to the people who use its services, assist in the development of documents, communication and programs to ensure they are appropriately targeted to the audience, attend meetings every second month, and participate in training and education as required. Bronwyn Rantall, a retired secondary school PE teacher, is the Chair of the Consumer Advisory Committee and enjoys contributing to the local community and making TDHS meet the needs of the local community. Scott Munro, who moved to the South-West area 10 years ago from Melbourne, works at a local oil & gas company and is interested in learning about the local health system. Bobbie French, an osteopath at the Timboon Clinic, grew up near Lavers Hill and completed her high school education at Timboon P12 School. Ellen Podbury, a teacher at Timboon P-12 School, is the school representative on the Committee and is passionate about health and wellbeing for the school and wider community.
