In this episode, Helen speaks with David Bradley, an optometrist based in Brisbane. For many years David has been servicing the Ngaanyatjarra lands out at Warburton and Warakurna on the Great Central Road with Optometry services to those Indigenous and remote communities. David tells us about the background of the optometry services he provides to the Ngaanyatjarra communities, including the training program for university optometry students that he facilitates, and what he’s seen change over the years. Helen and David discuss how important continuity of service delivery is to the health and education outcomes of remote communities, as well as how sealed road access impacts the health outcomes of the people that live there.
