Marketing and Communications Intern - Health Ready Project
Department of Health — Semester 2 (July – October)
The South Metropolitan Health Service’s (SMHS) ‘Health Ready’ project creates a pathway for external businesses to test their healthcare innovation within a Health Service Provider (HSP). Public HSPs are a major final user of innovative health-care products, which provides them with both insight into the health-care innovation landscape and opportunity to support the adoption of novel health-care products at large scale.
Businesses experience difficulties in engaging directly with HSPs during their innovation development which can lead to 1) limited access to (clinical and non-clinical) experts during innovation development; 2) limited understanding of unmet needs and competing solution already in the market; 3) delays in the validation of innovation products.
We are in the process of establishing the ‘Health Ready’ pipeline which will leverage innovation capital and infrastructure at SMHS to validate health-care innovation products and enable long-term collaboration between public health and innovators throughout the innovation development.
The project will involve developing the launch marketing and communication material, both for internal and external distribution. This will include developing a marketing and communications plan, copywriting for website content, flyers and posters, media releases, and branding for the initiative. Developing these will involve consultation with internal and external stakeholders, including industry representatives.
