Community clinics (Primary Health Care Centres)
Community clinics (Primary Health Care Centres) generally serve small populations in rural, remote and very remote locations within Queensland. Services provided at a community clinic include treatment and triage for lower acuity medical conditions and minor procedures plus life support and stabilisation prior to transfer to a higher level health service. They may also provide a range of other primary, ambulatory, aged care, prenatal care, postnatal care and community services.
