Purple House
Western Desert Nganampa Walytja Palyantjaku Tjutaku Aboriginal Corporation (Purple House) runs from its headquarters in a suburban house in Alice Springs.
Purple House’s mission is ‘Making all our families well’. Flexibility and cultural safety are at the centre of everything we do. It’s the ‘Purple House way’.
We now offer remote dialysis, social support, aged-care and NDIS services, and run a bush medicine social enterprise called Bush Balm. And our services are expanding. Since the opening of the first dialysis clinic in Kintore in 2004, we now run 19 remote clinics and two mobile dialysis units called the Purple Truck, which allows patients to head back home to visit family, for festivals, funerals and other cultural business. We are always getting new requests to open dialysis units in new communities and have a number of projects in progress.
