Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people and their direct family members are eligible to use our services.
Confirmation of Aboriginality is required for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander clients.
If you don’t have a Confirmation of Aboriginality from an organisation with a common seal, then we will accept the following documents while the confirmation of Aboriginality process is underway. Interim documents include:
Non-Aboriginal direct family members can access our service if an Aboriginal family member is already a client of Galambila. Direct family members can include non-Aboriginal spouses, de-facto partners and children in the family’s care. Supporting evidence such as a Medicare card or a power bill may be required.
You will need an Aboriginal family member to support and sign the new client application.
We reserve the right to review patient eligibility if the requirements of our stated eligibility process are not met.
We have a transport service available to active clients to assist getting between home and Galambila. We provide this service as far North as Corindi and Red Rock, South to Urunga and West as far as the Ulong/Lowanna area.
You can book in for this service when you make your appointment with us. We are able to accommodate for Elders and also have safety equipment for babies. If you are requiring any safety equipment (car seats etc) please give our reception staff as much notice as possible so we can make all transport bookings and arrangements.
