Primary healthcare services in schools

PublishingPageContent

Students in selected primary and secondary schools can access free primary healthcare at school. General practitioners (GPs) or nurse practitioners work with students and their families to identify and address health issues impacting on students' engagement with learning. The service provides timely and appropriate access to healthcare for a wide range of health and mental health concerns at no cost to students or their families. GPs and nurse practitioners will provide referrals to medical specialists, allied health professionals or other external agencies when required.
