Satellite Health Centres and Minor Injury and Illness Clinics
There are three Satellite Health Centres in the Metro North Health catchment – Caboolture, Kallangur and Bribie Island.
Each Queensland Satellite Health Centre offers a Minor Injury and Illness Clinic, which provides walk-in urgent care for illnesses and injuries not anticipated to be life-threatening in nature. This service is free for Medicare card holders.
Satellite Health Centre Minor Injury and Illness Clinics are run by a team of doctors, nurses and allied health professionals experienced in treating urgent medical needs who can assess, diagnose and treat a wide range of minor injuries in adults, adolescents and babies older than three months of age.
Minor Injury and Illness Clinics are equipped to treat:
- minor head injuries with no loss of consciousness
- minor burns and scalds
- sprains and strains
- suspected arm and lower leg broken bones
- eye infections, conjunctivitis or scratches to the eye
- foreign bodies in the eyes, ears or nose

Minor Injury and Illness Clinics also provide:
