Doctors moving out of the pub with new RFDS facility

Appointments used to take place at the William Creek Hotel, but that's all to change for the tiny Oodnadatta Track community

There was once a pub with no beer, and a horse with no name but soon travellers on the Oodnadatta Track will have access to a clinic with no doctors. 

The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) plans to build a new health facility in the SA outback town of William Creek, population 10, by the end of the year. 

Currently the community is using the local pub as a venue when needing medical treatment.

The facility will feature a primary care room, an emergency treatment space and a community area as well as digital health technology.
