NWQPHC is a not-for-profit organisation working to improve health services across approximately 770,000 square kilometers of Queensland's most rural and remote areas. We are governed by a management board, made up primary of general practitioners (GP's). We also talk regularly with members of the community, local area network representatives and advisory members. We believe practitioners are central to individual and community health. NWQPHC services communities within an area bordered by Cardwell and Mornington Island to the north, Bowen and Collinsville to the South, Birdsville to the south-west, Palm Island to the east, Northern Territory border to the west and Tambo to the south.
