ABORIGINAL HEALTH & WELLBEING
INTEGRATED TEAM CARE
Our Integrated Team Care program aims to improve Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander access to primary health care services within the Great Southern, Coastal & Southern Wheatbelt regions.
We support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients with chronic disease to link them in with the support they need to better manage their health
If you would like to join the program, our team can talk to you and help you to take a health check. If your GP has written a care plan for you, we can then book the appointments you need and support you in other ways to better manage your health. As a team, our staff will help you to feel more confident about your health.
