WE REGRET TO ADVISE THIS CONFERENCE HAS BEEN CANCELLED 

Cancellation of the Aboriginal Health Conference - 4 and 5 July 2020

As you're aware WA Health has been continuing to strengthen their response to the Novel Coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19).

With that in mind, Rural Health West have decided that the Aboriginal Health Conference in Perth, scheduled for the 4 and 5 July 2020 will not proceed. 

While this is a disappointing outcome for all of us, part of the broader health sector’s planning for the COVID-19 outbreak has involved making sure the right people, protocols and processes are in place to continue delivering high-quality health services across rural and regional WA.

We’d like to take this opportunity to  acknowledge the ongoing efforts of all healthcare workers at this challenging time.

Kind regards,

Rural Health West



About the Conference

Developing strong commitments to improve the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal people in rural and remote communities.

Rural Health West invites you to one of Western Australia’s leading Aboriginal health conferences to be held at the Parmelia Hilton Perth on the 4 and 5 July 2020. 

The 2020 Aboriginal Health Conference will provide an opportunity for rural medical and health practitioners to discuss and exchange ideas on the following key issues relating to the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal communities:

  • Chronic disease
  • Technology
  • Mental health – including drug and alcohol use 
  • Environmental health
  • Early intervention - ear, eye, chest, and child health 

These topics will be addressed through presentations, clinical updates, practical workshops, hands-on concurrent sessions and case study learning opportunities.

As the leading conference of its kind in Western Australia, this event is open to all health professionals who have an interest and passion in Aboriginal health.

We encourage you to join us, and your colleagues, and take advantage of the opportunity to collaborate and network with others who share your enthusiasm and commitment.

The preliminary program will be available shortly.
