The Aboriginal flag has been raised for the first time on the redeveloped Goulburn Base Hospital campus today, as part of celebrations for the opening of the new Aboriginal Health Centre. The new Centre is part of the final phase of works for the $165 million Goulburn Hospital and Health Service Redevelopment, which has delivered a fit-for-purpose health facility to support high-quality healthcare for the Goulburn community. Local Ngunnawal Elder Jennie Gordon gave a Welcome to Country and raised the Torres Strait Islander flag, alongside Inland Network Aboriginal Health Manager Marion Knight and Goulburn Base Hospital Site Manager, Kylie Strong who raised the Aboriginal and Australian flags. The Centre includes a waiting area, accessible bathroom, kitchen with breakfast bar for cooking demonstrations, consultation rooms, and a flexible activity space. A new outdoor area landscaped with native plants comprises a yarning circle for community members to gather along with a play area for child and family programs. Additional works were made possible through a successful $225,000 grant from NSW Health as part of the Aboriginal Health Minor Capital Works Program.
