Subjective experience levels of the clinicians/health professionals varied across the service types,
with NGO services having the least experience; with only 3 out of 9 NGO participants (33%) felt very
experienced working with Rainbow service users. These 3 participants were all working in addiction
services. 4 (45%) of NGO participants felt they had little or no experience working Rainbow service
users. The remaining 2 (22%) had some experience.

As stated earlier, those who participated from primary care were generally from the central city
GP practices, and were likely to have a higher number of Rainbow services users than practices
outside of the central city. None of these participants felt they had little or no experience working
with Rainbow consumers.
