This week we held a two day Research Workshop at our Mardi Community Hub. Community members and Health service staff actively participated in "Designing an Aboriginal-Led Precision Medicine Program in NSW". This first stage of Co-design workshop is a crucial step where we understood the study, discussed needs of community and health service and training requirements for health services.

We are continuing to accept new patients onto the waitlist, as we understand the needs of our community.
We kindly ask for your patience and understanding while our team works through this process.

We would also like to remind our community that we have a zero tolerance policy for inappropriate or abusive behaviour toward our staff. We are committed to providing safe and respectful care, and we expect the same in return.
