Community health care that reaches further

Our remote drug supply helps clinics keep medicines available. We also support community pharmacy remote dispensing and ACCHO pharmacy support for remote clinics. As a trusted partner for Aboriginal Health Services and Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisations (ACCHOs) we can help with:

  • Our imprest system keeps medicines ready for rural and remote clinics. It helps prevent shortages and gives your Aboriginal Health Service peace of mind.

  • We help improve patient safety and health results with medicine checks, staff training, and Home Medicines Reviews (HMRs).

  • Our tools make work easier, improve stock control, and cut manual admin. That gives your team more time for face-to-face care.

  • Also called blister packs or sachets, DAAs help people follow complex medicine plans. They help patients take medicines the right way and lower the chance of errors, especially when a pharmacist is not available.
