The two services will combine to become Omnia Community Health, a name developed through consultation with staff at the two current organisations, clients, community members and partners.
Its new visual identity has also been informed by research with these stakeholders in hopes to embody the new organisation’s purpose: ‘to help our communities feel healthy, connected and supported through trusted, local care’.
Chief executive David Wild said the announcement marked an exciting and important milestone in the merger, signalling the beginning of a new chapter for the organisation.
“We consulted broadly to understand how our new brand should reflect the care and connection we deliver every day,” he said.
“Omnia Community Health represents our shared vision to be the trusted local health partner for our communities, one that empowers people to live well through care that’s inclusive, connected and grounded in local relationships.”
Derived from the Latin word for ‘all’ or ‘everything’, Omnia reflects the organisation’s commitment to providing inclusive, comprehensive and connected care for everyone.
To the organisation, it symbolises unity, collaboration and the belief that everyone deserves access to quality health and wellbeing services.
The new logo sets out to bring this meaning to life, visually representing Omnia Community Health’s commitment to inclusivity, connection and care.
“Nexus Primary Health and Sunbury and Cobaw Community Health are coming together to create a more resilient and connected community health service for our region, and Omnia Community Health’s logo captures that beautifully,” Mr Wild said.
“We look forward to delivering better, more connected healthcare for our communities into the future.”
The name will officially launch on the first day of the new year, when the organisations formally merge to form Omnia Community Health.
