Description
Purple House is a community-driven health service dedicated to improving the lives of Aboriginal people in Central Australia, particularly those affected by renal disease. Established under the Western Desert Nganampa Walytja Palyantjaku Tjuṯaku (WDNWPT) Aboriginal Corporation, Purple House provides essential dialysis services and a range of support for patients from remote communities, allowing them to stay connected with their families and cultural heritage.
At the heart of Purple House’s mission is the belief in the importance of community involvement and self-determination. The organization emphasizes patient-centered care, where the voices of patients and their families play a pivotal role in decision-making processes. This approach not only fosters a sense of belonging but also enhances the overall well-being of individuals undergoing treatment.
