Our organisation strives to alleviate the burdens faced by the homeless community of NSW in accessing primary healthcare.
““The enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being without distinction of race, religion, political belief, economic or social condition” ”
Our Mission
Our founder, Dr. Daniel Nour, and his fellow directors shared a vision of providing an exceptional standard of healthcare to the homeless community. We are able to carry many of the burdens that homeless people experience by exploring and addressing the barriers keeping them away from healthcare services. Our service operates from a mobile medical van which ensures that we are able to reach the homeless community across multiple locations. Each doctor in our van is an RACGP accredited General practitioner and our vans are fitted with the necessary equipment to provide primary healthcare services, to the standard of a normal general practice. Furthermore, we have partnered with a number of homeless services in areas with demographically high concentrations of homelessness in order to improve patient participation. Finally, our services will be of no personal charge to any patients regardless of healthcare status.
