Data shows that Australians who live in rural and remote areas have a higher level of disease, hospitalisations, injury and mortality. It is because such people have poorer access to medical services than people who live in metropolitan areas like Melbourne and other parts of VIC. Stats also reveal that the life expectancy for both males and females decreases in remote areas, and the preventable hospitalisation rate is around 2.5 times higher than in a major city.
Swan Hill is one such rural area, which is quite far from major cities like Melbourne and Geelong (more than 335km). Moreover, the population in Swan Hill is only around 16,000, which is extremely low in comparison to the capital city of Victoria (Above 51 lakh). However, Swan Hill Medical Centre is making tireless efforts to provide every possible medical service.
