A general medical outpatient clinic for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children

Wadja health clinic is a weekly general medical clinic for Aboriginal children which provides medical, social, cultural and emotional assessment.

The focus of the clinic is on the management of Aboriginal patients with complex health and social issues by a team. A paediatrician will see the child and family together with an Aboriginal Case Manager with the aim of enabling a family to feel supported and culturally empowered.

An Aboriginal family health worker will also be available during clinic hours for further support if required by the family.

Referrals to the clinic can be made by GPs who have assessed that a child requires specialist medical care.
