1. The Hobson's Bay Refugee Health Network (HBRN) have produced a website www.hbrn.net.au which features the Directory of Health Services accessible to refugees and asylum seekers in Hobson's Bay and surrounding municipalities.
The Directory is designed to provide accessible information for people who are trying to assist asylum seekers and refugees to establish their lives in the community. The services listed in the Directory are those that are located in, or which service the Hobson's Bay area and which - currently- have a special interest in, or special expertise or experience pertaining to, the health of asylum seekers and refugees. It includes GP clinics, regional and central services, other health support services and GPs listed by language.
This is a work in progress and the authors are happy to receive updated, corrected or additional information. It is planned that the directory will be expanded to include other support services including the legal and housing sectors. Contact Ann Morrow on: annmorrow@bigpond.com.au
