Connector Points

Connector Points are community organisations and services that can provide face-to-face or telephone assistance for improving social connections and reducing social isolation of older people, particularly those without internet access. You can access the community connector points on the My Health Connector website.

Pharmacy Connector Points are another way older people can access social connection. Pharmacies are an important service in the community who see patients that may be experiencing social isolation and/or loneliness due to a range of life circumstances. Pharmacists are in a unique position to assist patients.

Through this initiative, pharmacists conduct social prescribing, which is where health professionals connect patients with non-clinical services, social groups or lifestyle activities. It can be used to address a range of health issues including both physical and mental health conditions. You can view these Pharmacy connector points on our My Health Connector website.

The Connector Point program can be found in Blue Mountains, Lithgow and Penrith LGAs and ongoing in Hawkesbury.
