In addition to our clinical services, we are focused on helping our communities and individuals take greater responsibility for their health outcomes through health literacy and preventative health programs and partnerships. HealthWISE was established in 2015 to generate primary and preventative health activities specific to the needs of our various communities. We strive to change the mindset of health by improving access to opportunities to be healthy for the people who live our communities. We recognise the social determinants of health and the unique characteristics of our regions. We believe it is possible for every individual to make choices that result in a healthier self and our purpose is to make these choices easier. Working in conjunction with the NSW Rural Doctors Network we also deliver medical specialist outreach services such as Gynaecology, Endocrinology, Cardiology, Nephrology, Opthalmology, Paediatrics, Rheumatology and Dermatology.
