The Royal Flying Doctor Service of Western Australia (RFDS WA) will open its first permanent GP clinic in Kalgoorlie in 2025 to support the growing demand for primary health care in the Goldfields.
The opening of the Goldfields Health Centre supported by Northern Star Resources is a key initiative in the RFDS WA’s 2024 – 2028 Strategy Above & Beyond and marks the beginning of a broader primary health care expansion for the RFDS, with plans to establish additional GP clinics in other regions across WA where it’s needed most.
The Goldfields Health Centre supported by Northern Star Resources will complement the medical services already available to the Goldfields community.
A key feature of the clinic will be the involvement of allied health students who will work alongside GPs, providing a holistic health experience for patients.
This model also offers regional training opportunities for the next generation of health care workers, encouraging them to remain in the regions where demand for medical care is greatest.
The new Goldfields Health Centre supported by Northern Star Resources is made possible with the support of Curtin University, the WA Country Health Service and Northern Star Resources. Further information about the clinic including the opening date, location and opening times will be available soon.
