RIVERVIEW Family Health says it is looking forward to the challenges – and rewards – of providing an increasingly broad range of health services, to the Casterton district, in response to concerns raised over a lack of GP services in the district.

Riverview’s Linda Thompson said while the service could not “solve all the community’s issues tomorrow”, its partnership with a South Australian-based service would provide an accessible and regular GP service, to the Casterton district community and the Jackson Street clinic was taking new patients on a daily basis.
