Celebrating 25 years of Jimbelunga Nursing Centre.From humble beginnings in 1994 to the modern facility it is today, Jimbelunga Nursing Centre boasts a proud history and commitment to providing quality care for all our residents. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community Health Service (ATSICHS) Brisbane co-founder and nursing pioneer Aunty Pamela Mam and her late husband Uncle Steve Mam played a vital role in its establishment. In the early 1990’s work began to rally for an Indigenous nursing centre and along with her husband Uncle Steve, Aunty Pamela and fellow ATSICHS founders worked tirelessly to advocate for a centre which provided a range of aged health care and support services for the community. After many years of searching for land, Jimbelunga Nursing Centre was officially opened on 25 November 1994 at Eagleby on Brisbane’s southside under the umbrella of ATSICHS Brisbane. In 2019 we celebrate 25 years of operation.
