The review is set to begin in March.

The Australian government has announced an independent review into Wee Waa health services to assess access to healthcare in New South Wales.

Key areas of focus will include local health needs, workforce recruitment and retention, and decisions related to service delivery and models of care.

The review is set to begin in March, with a report expected to be delivered to the government by mid-year.

It will be led by subject matter experts and will examine both current and former service models.

The panel will include professionals with experience in nursing, midwifery, patient safety, Aboriginal health, and rural and regional healthcare.
