Healthy skin is important for maintaining overall health and wellbeing. Some skin infections, if untreated, can lead to serious downstream health complications such as heart disease, kidney disease, or sepsis.

The aim of this project is to conduct a situational analysis of the skin health services and activities currently available for managing skin infections within the Kimberley.
