Queensland Divisions Profile
Since July 2009, GPQ has been producing six monthly ‘Division Profiles’. These profiles provide comprehensive information from a range of data sets including demographics, primary care workforce, health service utilisation, disease prevention and management and Divisions National Performance Indicators.In October 2010, GPQ also published the first state wide 'Queensland Profile'. This profile provides an overview of key health indicators in Queensland. The indicators have been selected on the basis of their availability and their relevance to primary health care. They provide a useful snapshot and a means of monitoring trends rather than being definitive measures themselves.
