Description 1 online resource (1 video file, 51 min.) Series Desperately seeking doctors Desperately seeking doctors Summary Working at the Ord Valley Aboriginal Health Service (OVAHS) in Kununurra and dealing with upwards of 120 patients a day, Dr Mary is thrown into the deep end of the health crisis facing the Kimberley. And the OVAHS clinic is a long way from her sedate waiting room in the Scottish Islands. Against the backdrop of a resources bonanza, Dr Mary comes face to face with the health impacts on a community by-passed by the boom; including a homeless pensioner recently awarded the Order of Australia and the ticking time-bomb of heart disease for a grandmother trying to provide a home for young kids fleeing family feuds.--Kanopy Notes Produced by Artemis International, in association with SBS and BBC Scotland, with the assistance of Screenwest and Lotterywest Credits Producer: Brian Beaton Event Originally produced by Artemis International in 2010 Notes Originally produced [Perth, WA., Artemis International ; Eight Mile Plains, Qld., Marcom [distributor], c2011] Subject Rural health services -- Australia Medicine, Rural -- Australia Medicine, Rural -- Australia -- Western Australia Physicians -- Recruiting -- Australia -- Western Australia Physicians, Foreign -- Australia -- Kimberley (W.A.)
