Supporting research

Metro North Hospital Health Service (Metro North NHHS) supports local, national and international collaborative research and partnerships with health services, academic institutions and commercial organisations.

Establishing strategic partnerships and research collaborations with organisations including Hospital and not-for-profit Foundations, Universities, Research Institutes, Government and industry is a key priority of the Metro North HHS Research Strategy.

Metro North HHS values the benefits to clinical service that research collaboration and partnership affords, including the potential to enrich and educate staff, access and use of additional skill sets, the creation of new knowledge and increased capacity to provide excellent, evidenced-based quality health care services.
