Every day, our staff deal with some of the most consequential health and social issues facing rural, remote and Indigenous communities in Australia. 

 

More than any other thing our health status is determined by the places we are born, grow, live, work and age.  That is why we are committed to a place-based approach to community health.

 

Our doctors and health staff live and work in rural and remote communities building knowledge of the local context and the relationships with local residents that are essential for good primary care and better health outcomes.
