Working with Clients to Tackle Chronic Disease

Published on Wednesday, 22 February 2017 at 12:00:00 AM

Our Chronic Disease team focuses on completing health checks and care plans for clients.

Regular health checks can help detect and prevent chronic conditions such as diabetes, cancer, respiratory conditions, renal disease and heart disease.

We work with clients to create Individualised Care Plans, to help them self-manage their chronic disease and prevent complications. A Care Plan includes goals and targets that a client has made for their own health.

Our Chronic Disease team includes Aboriginal Health Practitioners and GPs.

Our vision is to improve healthcare outcomes for Aboriginal people in the Hedland area and surrounding communities.

Our team has been sending out recall/reminder letters to clients. If you have received a letter in the mail, please come to Wirraka Maya Health Service during. You can make an appointment by phoning our friendly reception team on (08) 9172 0400.

We are open from 8:30am-5:00pm Monday to Thursday, and 8:30am-4:00pm on Friday.
