Description
Family Health Matters is a primary health centre providing evidence based healthcare centrally located in the Glen Innes Community.
Our mission is to create a safe and supportive space in which we can work together and provide personalised, family-oriented medical care to the people in our community and surrounding areas who want to take control of their health and live a more vibrant and healthy life.
By combining the art and science of nursing and medicine, we work with our patients in a more holistic way that considers their situation in a wider context and finds solutions that work for them.
As every body and mind is different, we are mindful of our patients’ needs and taking the time to develop a personalised treatment plan for our patients. We are working as a team and we are part of a wide network of health specialists to which we can refer our patients as needed.
