Get support from our health clinic

Supporting your health

The Asylum Seekers Centre health clinic is a team of nurses and volunteer health professionals. You can book in to see a nurse between 10am to 4pm, five days a week. We also have GP and physiotherapy appointments available. The Asylum Seekers Centre can help with:

• Appointments with a registered nurse, GP and/or physiotherapist
• Help with getting medications
• Getting access to medical imaging
• Getting access to pathology services
• Getting access to counselling
• Connecting to specialist health services
• Getting access to dental and optometry (glasses)
• Immunisations
• Health navigation to medical appointments organised by the ASC health nurses
• Health education and workshops
• Fee waivers (for clients without medicare)

If you need to pay a fee for emergency treatment, or get public hospital outpatient services, we can help.

Many of our health clinic services are supplied pro-bono by our broad network of healthcare partners, in particular Sydney Local Health District.
