About us
People, connection and positive change — that's what Allied Health is all about.
Our Allied Health teams work alongside medical, nursing and operational teams, as well as community partners, to help people recover, stay well and get the support they need.
Our Social Workers look beyond the diagnosis, recognising the impact that life, relationships, culture, finances and other circumstances can have on health and wellbeing. Through practical support, advocacy and specialised interventions, we help people navigate challenges, strengthen their wellbeing and connect with the right services.
