Clinical Services
Our clinical services are designed to address the unique health needs of our community, ensuring access to quality healthcare that promotes overall well-being. Our approach is rooted in cultural understanding, respect, and a strong commitment to improving the health outcomes of each individual we serve.
Health Assessments
Our health assessments cater to all ages, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of an individual's health status and needs.
For infants and children, we conduct developmental assessments and immunisations to support healthy growth. Adolescents and adults receive comprehensive check-ups, screenings, and assessments that focus on both preventive care and early detection of any potential health concerns.
We address the health needs of seniors with assessments and monitoring, enabling us to provide appropriate care and support tailored to their stage of life.
Chronic Disease Management
TAMS ACs’ chronic disease management program is structured to provide comprehensive care and support to individuals dealing with conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, respiratory illnesses, arthritis, and more.
We work closely with each patient to develop personalised management plans that encompass regular check-ups, medication management, lifestyle modifications, and education about their specific condition.
Our team of healthcare professionals ensure a holistic approach, addressing not only the physical aspects but also the mental and emotional well-being of patients. By empowering individuals with knowledge around their condition, we enable them to proactively manage it for a healthier and more fulfilling future.
Childhood Vaccinations
Our clinic is committed to ensuring that every child in our community receives timely and appropriate vaccinations to protect them from serious and potentially life-threatening diseases.
We follow national immunisation schedules and guidelines, offering a comprehensive range of childhood vaccinations that safeguard against diseases such as measles, mumps, rubella, polio, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, and more.
We educate caregivers about the importance of vaccinations, the diseases they prevent, and any potential side effects to alleviate concerns and promote informed decision-making. By providing accessible and reliable vaccination services, TAMS AC ensures that all children in our community grow up healthy, protected, and free from preventable diseases.
Women's Health Assessments
Tamworth Aboriginal Medical Clinic provides comprehensive and sensitive health assessments tailored specifically to the unique needs of women. Our women's health assessments promote overall wellbeing and address both general and reproductive health concerns.
Our experienced healthcare professionals conduct thorough health check-ups, encompassing various aspects such as reproductive health, gynaecological examinations, breast checks, family planning and more. We prioritise education, empowering women with the knowledge they need to make informed decisions about their health.
Skin Cancer Checks
Skin cancer is a significant concern in Australia, and regular skin checks are crucial for early diagnosis and effective treatment. TAMS AC offers comprehensive skin cancer checks conducted by experienced and specialised healthcare professionals.
During a skin cancer check, our doctors examine the skin, identifying any unusual moles, growths, or changes in existing lesions. If any suspicious spots are detected, we may recommend further tests or a biopsy to determine the presence of skin cancer.
We emphasise the importance of sun protection and educate our community about sun-safe practices to reduce the risk of developing skin cancer.
Wound Dressings
TAMS AC provides wound care services, including wound dressings, to ensure optimal healing and prevent complications. Our healthcare professionals are trained in wound management and follow best practices to meet the specific needs of each patient.
In addition to applying wound dressings, we educate our patients and their caregivers on wound care at home, emphasising the importance of cleanliness, changing dressings as instructed, and monitoring for signs of infection or complications.
