Details of the offer

Sunrise Health Services Aboriginal Corporation – Katherine NT
Sunrise Health Service Aboriginal Corporation is an Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Organisation.
The Sunrise approach involves Aboriginal communities taking part in controlling their own health.
Everything from financial management and governance, staff selection and service delivery priorities are delegated by the organisation's Aboriginal Board and Community Health Committees.

Yet despite this, the ethos and practices of Sunrise Health have it be a leader within both National and Territory performance indicators.
Acute health care does not make people well - it is only when health issues and the social determinants of health are addressed, that families and communities become well – a challenge that Sunrise Health is committed to addressing with each of its communities, and with the expectation that each of its employees will adopt and uphold this culture.
