My health for life

My health for life (MH4L) is a free behaviour change program designed for people at high risk of developing a chronic disease and shows participants that making small lifestyle changes can have major health benefits.

The program works in partnership with general practice and is a practical extension of advice given by GPs and nurses to their patients.

Participants can complete the program through face-to-face, video conferencing or telephone coaching.

Note: Participants can attend a VC session with a facilitator anywhere in Queensland.

13 RISK (13 74 75) will assist participants in selecting a program mode, timeslot and location that suits them.

Patients can be referred using the practice software MH4L referral template or calling 13 RISK.
