Drop-In Doc brings free healthcare to those experiencing homelessness or at risk of homelessness.
The Drop-In Doc is a collaborative initiative between Link Wentworth and the Nepean Blue Mountains Primary Health Network. This pilot program is designed to break down barriers to healthcare by providing free medical support to those who need it most.
Anyone who is homeless or at risk of homelessness is welcome. No referral, Medicare card, ID, or proof of citizenship required. The team consists of Coordinators and Medical staff from the Primary Health Network, Link Wentworth, and Octa Medical.
What’s available?
- Consultations with a doctor and nurse
- Help navigating health and social services
- Warm referrals and follow-up support
Already, Drop-In Doc has delivered life-changing support to people who were unable to access healthcare elsewhere.
When & Where:
- Every Wednesday
- 10:30 AM – 2:30 PM
- PCYC Penrith, 100 Station Street, Penrith NSW 2750
People from any area are welcome to attend, even if they already have a regular GP. No appointment is required but caseworkers can book a time for clients
