Green Lifestyle Prescriptions will be tailored to a patient’s individual health and lifestyle situation to target smoking, poor nutrition, lack of physical activity, excessive alcohol consumption and depression. Extra funding will be given to the NT Health Helpline to expand its Health Advice role to provide specific follow-up advice and extra support for patients on Green Prescriptions. A website will be created to provide up- to-date advice on how a busy lifestyle can also be a healthy one. Sporting clubs will be encouraged to list their information on the website to encourage people to participate in a sport.
