Caring for our Elders

Bidgerdii Community Health Service is committed to providing culturally safe healthcare tailored for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders. We understand that health needs evolve with age, so we emphasise preventative care to support long-term wellbeing.

Our clinical services focus on preventative care, chronic disease management, and overall wellbeing – ensuring Elders receive the support they need to maintain their health and independence.

Preventative Care

At Bidgerdii, we focus on keeping our Elders strong and well through regular health checks and early prevention.

Our services include:

  • 715 Health Checks – annual, comprehensive check-ups for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people

  • Immunisations – including shingles, flu, COVID-19, and pneumococcal

  • GP Management Plans – for ongoing care of chronic conditions

  • Chronic Disease Support – regular monitoring and guidance

  • Allied Health Referrals – access to services like podiatry, physio, dietetics, and more

We’re here to support our Elders with respectful, culturally safe care at every step.
