COVID-19 Information
The Women’s and Children’s Health Network is keeping you safe during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
We have a range of measures in place to protect our staff, consumers and the community during the current pandemic. For information on current visitor guidelines, visit our COVID-19 Information page.
What's in focus
Visiting a health service can be scary, especially when there’s lots of people covered head to toe in Personal Protective Equipment or PPE.
A free virtual urgent care service for babies to teenagers will connect you with our team of emergency nurses and doctors who can stream into your home and provide medical advice and assessment.
All Children aged 5 and over are now eligible for a COVID-19 Vaccine. Visit one of our Family-friendly clinics today.
WCHN is committed to improving health outcomes for Aboriginal women, children and families. We provide our staff with learning and development opportunities in Aboriginal culture, to help build culturally appropriate, relevant and accessible services.
Person and family-centred care is respectful of, and responsive to, the preferences, needs and values of consumers, their families and the community.
