A NEW purpose-built medical clinic in Blacktown has been officially opened by NSW Premier Chris Minns to provide care for western Sydney’s most vulnerable residents. The clinic marks a major expansion of The Reverend Bill Crews Foundation’s healthcare services which provides free, wraparound healthcare to people living with disability, mental illness, addiction and complex physical conditions. “This clinic is about giving people dignity, care, and hope,” said Reverend Bill Crews. “Often we see patients presenting without Medicare, secure housing or a stable income so for them this free service is a lifeline.” “Too many people in Western Sydney are going without basic medical treatment. We built this clinic so that no one is left behind.” The new clinic extends the Foundation’s renowned services beyond its Ashfield headquarters. The new clinic in Blacktown aims to service 2,400 medical and 1,300 dental appointments each year, and up to 3,000 social work intake cases.
