Welcome to UTHSAC
Welcome to Umoona Tjutagku Health Service Aboriginal Corporation (UTHSAC). Umoona Tjutagku Health Service was established in 2005 to address the specific medical needs of the Aboriginal people in Coober Pedy. The organisation has expanded steadily over the past seven and a half years to provide a comprehensive range of medical, dental and social services for our community.
About UTHSAC
UTHSAC continues to provide high quality comprehensive primary health care services to an increasing number of local and transient clients. Umoona Tjutagku Health Service has over the past two years been focusing on improving our service delivery in the community. As well as providing a variety of medical services, UTHSAC is committed to supporting the well-being of the community through contributions to community events and activities.
History of UTHSAC
Prior to 1975/76 access to Coober Pedy health services for all residents, including Aboriginal people was through the local hospital, with the added support of the Royal Flying Doctors Service and several local nurses. The hospital was built by the local Coober Pedy Progress Association through Drive-in Takings and staffed by the Bush Church Aid (outreach of Anglican Church) until 1977 when it was handed over to South Australian Health council.
