Just a few blocks from my last stop and I’m stopping in with Miwatj Health Aboriginal Corporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Miwatj Health is an independent Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Service providing culturally appropriate and comprehensive primary health care to over 6,000 remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents, spread across the East Arnhem region. Their 7 clinics are located in Nhulunbuy, Gapuwiyak (also known as Lake Evalla), Gunya\u014bara (also known as Mar\u014barr or Ski Beach), Galiwin\u2019ku, Ramingi\u1e49i\u014b, Yirrkala and Yurrwi (also known as Mili\u014binbi\/Milingimbi), and provide a walk-in service for all acute and preventive health care needs. In addition to these clinics, their outreach teams provide a regular visiting health service to a number of nearby communities including Birritjimi, Galupa, and Dhanaya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also facilitate an Indigenous Smoking Program as part of the national Tackling Indigenous Smoking Program called, Yaka Ngarali<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
