Supporting healthy futures starts with prevention and early intervention 💙💚

Students boarding at Djarragun College, Elson, Jahleel, Kassarn, Ishaley, and Cyrus, recently completed their annual 715 Health Check with Ngak Min Health as part of their ongoing health and wellbeing journey.

The 715 Health Check is an important opportunity to support the overall wellbeing of children and young people. It helps monitor growth and development, assess physical, social and emotional health, and identify any concerns early so the right support can be provided when it's needed.

These health checks also give young people the chance to build positive relationships with health professionals, ask questions about their health and develop confidence in managing their wellbeing.

By making the 715 Health Check a regular part of our model of care, Ngak Min Health is helping children and young people stay healthy, connected and supported as they grow.
Healthy futures begin with the steps we take today. 💙

Sore throats or skin sores might seem minor, but if left untreated, they can sometimes lead to Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD), a serious condition that can cause permanent damage to the heart.

RHD continues to impact many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, young people and families across Australia. The good news is that early treatment of sore throats and skin infections can help prevent it.

This powerful video shares a personal story of living with RHD and highlights the importance of getting symptoms checked early and staying connected to ongoing care.

𝗘𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀💙

Xavier’s journey started like many others at boarding school, but something wasn’t quite right. After each school holiday, he kept coming back unwell.

Through regular 715 Health Checks at Ngak Min Health, our team noticed the pattern and took a closer look.

That decision led to an early diagnosis of Rheumatic Heart Disease and the care he needed to stay healthy.

Today, Xavier is supported with ongoing treatment and regular check-ups to protect his heart and keep him moving forward 💪

Early action makes all the difference.

Primary health care nurses are often the first point of contact. They work across general practice, community health, schools, aged care and remote services, supporting prevention, early care and ongoing support close to home.

Today, we want to shine a light on Jayrahni Nicholls, one of our dedicated primary health care nurses here at Ngak Min Health 💙

“The most meaningful part of my role is building strong, respectful relationships based on trust and continuity of care. Taking the time to listen, learn and walk alongside individuals, families and community helps ensure care is truly person centred and culturally safe.” Jayrahni said.

Jayrahni is especially passionate about holistic health models that recognise culture, family, community and connection to Country as essential parts of wellbeing. Supporting people to feel empowered, informed and in control of their health is what makes her work so rewarding.

🙏 Thank you to Jayrahni and to all primary health care nurses. Your care, compassion and commitment make a real difference every day.

📍 On Gimuy Country, Ngak Min Health and Djarragun College stood together at the 2025 Closing the Gap on Indigenous Health Forum.

From the early days of supporting Djarragun students to becoming a national example of school-based healthcare, Ngak Min continues to prove what’s possible when education and health walk side by side.

At the forum, our leaders shared the data, stories and cultural strength behind our success and why community-led models like ours need long-term support to thrive.
