Good health is an important element in a child’s quality of life as it can influence participation in many aspects of life, including schooling and recreation. The early years of a child’s life provide the foundation for future heath, development and wellbeing. A positive start in life helps children to reach their full potential, while a poor start increases the chances of adverse outcomes.

Kareela Village Medical Centre has priority appointments for children with acute medical problems, and offers health checks and childhood immunisations.
