This week is National Reconciliation Week.


Medilaw Group acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the land upon which we live and work, and pays respects to Elders past, present and emerging.


Reconciliation Australia’s theme for 2022, “𝗕𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲. 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲.” is a challenge to all Australians – to “𝗕𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝘃𝗲” and tackle the unfinished business of reconciliation so that we can “𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲” and strengthen relationships between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and non-Indigenous peoples, for the benefit of all Australians.


This week, MedHealth also launches it’s Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) as part of its National Reconciliation Week 2022 celebrations. Medilaw Group (Next HealthMedilaw and MindSense Centre of Psychiatry) is proud to support this great initiative which exists to:




  • Recognise the value of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’ histories, knowledge and contributions within MedHealth’s business and the wider community

  • Make a meaningful contribution to reconciliation, building respect, relationships and opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, both within MedHealth and through delivering culturally appropriate services

  • Foster a corporate culture that values the health, wellbeing and knowledge of all peoples
