Aboriginal Liaison Officers play a vital role in the care and welfare of Aboriginal patients, families, carers and kin. Ask any staff member to connect you.
If you, your carer, a family member or kin does not speak English as a first language or is Deaf, you have the right to ask for a free and confidential interpreter.
