About Us
Integrated Chronic Care Program
An Accredited Exercise Physiologist (AEP) and Certificate IV Fitness Instructor provide culturally appropriate supplementary allied health services in the primary care environment using a multidisciplinary approach to address community needs.
The services include prevention and early intervention activities for individuals to support healthy lifestyles and rehabilitation programs/services. Service Delivery is prioritized for people experiencing or at risk of developing chronic disease (including but not limited to: diabetes, arthritis, obesity and issues such as cardiovascular), people in or experiencing socio economic hardship and indigenous people.
The Centre includes an air-conditioned fully equipped gym that is designed specifically for rehabilitation and risk prevention programs for clients who have been identified by their doctor as having significant health risk factors, chronic conditions, wish to prevent disease or wish to improve their current health and wellbeing.
We aim to provide clients with fully supervised exercise sessions including monitoring heart rate and blood pressure. Individual personalised programs are written, delivered and overseen by our accredited Exercise Physiologist. Healthy lifestyle education and information sessions are also conducted to enable clients to develop a happier, healthier, risk free lifestyle.
Our qualified Staff are dedicated to helping and supporting you every step of the way.
