“The service is run by trained Women’s Health Nurses that can assist females from puberty to menopause and beyond. The clinics are free in a safe and relaxed environment.” Ms Phillips said. 

“We really want women in the Nyngan district to know you do not need a referral to use our service, all you have to do is book a free appointment by contacting the Community Health Centre or local Women’s Health Nurse”. 

She is encouraging women of all ages to book in for one of three women’s health clinics at the Nyngan MPS, even if it’s a general health check up. 

The first free clinic will be open on February 7, between 10.30am and 2pm. Make an appointment by calling 6835 1700.
