Primary Health

At Alexandra District Health our Primary Health team provide a range of services and programs that can be tailored to your needs.

Our Primary Health (or Community Health) services include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, dietetics, speech therapy, community nursing, diabetes education, counselling and social work. Allied Health Assistants also support these programs and services. Our primary health services are provided at our Alexandra site, however some services are provided at our campus in Marysville or as home visits.

Our community are supported to manage their chronic health conditions via a variety of programs and services including our diabetes educator, dietitian, pulmonary rehabilitation program, cardiac rehabilitation program, counsellors and continence nurse.

Health promotion activities aim to prevent the community from becoming unwell in the first place, and currently target the areas of healthy eating, active living and reducing harm from tobacco and e-cigarette use.
