AHCaN does not practice from a traditional GP medical centre due to “non competing" service restrictions on providing patient care.
AHCaN is a home health care clinic located in Paralowie designed to provide comfortable and professional care to its patients with undercover parking only a few meters away from the entry to make it easier for people with mobility or balance concern.
In rare cases Purgatorium staff may provide home visits to its regular patients in the local area due to ill health, recent hospitalisation or other factors impacting in clinic appointments or were telehealth may not be appropriate.
