Redefining how people access care beyond the medical system
Redefining how people access care beyond the medical system
Health Village is Australia’s first social prescribing app, designed to connect clinical treatment and everyday wellbeing. It’s time to transform how we think about care by recognising that over half of what determines our health lies beyond the doctor’s office and hospital walls.
We believe that being healthy does not stop at being medically treated. Our purpose is to make those important non-medical connections visible, accessible, and valued within the healthcare system, ultimately easing its pressure and demand.
One in five GP appointments are taken up by issues that medicine alone cannot solve, contributing to pressure on the system.
55% of all health outcomes are determined by social, non-medical factors such as loneliness, isolation, relationship issues, or stress.
This has quietly become its own health crisis, with evidence showing that loneliness is as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
