The Crisafulli Government is delivering health services when you need them after officially opening a new, free walk-in Women and Girls Health Hub in Caboolture.
It's one of the ways the Crisafulli Government is delivering easier access to health services and a fresh start for Queensland.
The new Wellspring Women and Girls Health Hub provides health checks and screening, immunisations, social work support, education and healthy behaviours.
Operated by Micah Projects, the Hub is delivered in partnership with Queensland Health thanks to an $8.94 million commitment by the Crisafulli Government over four years.
The Crisafulli Government is investing in women and girls' health, after the former Labor government left the Women and Girls' Health Strategy without a funding source and put $157.3 million worth of women's health initiatives at risk.
Minister for Health and Ambulance Services Tim Nicholls said the Hub would empower women and girls in Brisbane's North and the Sunshine Coast to make informed about their health and wellbeing.
"Labor left a funding blackhole of more than $150 million in women and girls health, but the Crisafulli Government fully funded these initiatives in our record $33.1 billion health budget," Minister Nicholls said.
"It's fantastic to officially open this new service that has already begun providing life-changing support to more than 450 local women and girls," Minister Nicholls said.
Minister for Women Fiona Simpson said the Crisafulli Government was committed to delivering better health outcomes for women and girls across the state.
"Labor's decade of decline left our health services on life support, which is why we are delivering important services, like this women and girls hub in Caboolture," Minister Simpson said.
"The Hub delivers wraparound support for those experiencing difficult circumstances, such as homelessness or domestic and family violence, ensuring they receive the care, and guidance they need."
In its first months of operation, the Hub has supported some of our most vulnerable women and girls, including:
49 per cent were experiencing homelessness
40 per cent had experienced domestic and family violence
36 per cent identified as First Nations
11 per cent were in contact with the justice system
Member for Pumicestone Ariana Doolan said the the Hub was a safe and inclusive space for women and girls to access social, emotional, and healthcare support.
"By focusing on early intervention and holistic care, the Wellspring Hub is already making a meaningful difference in the lives of women and girls," Ms Doolan said.
"Importantly, it is helping to fix Labor's Health Crisis because it will reduce pressure on emergency departments by addressing non-urgent needs in a more appropriate setting."
The Hub prioritises communities who face significant barriers to care and who experience poorer long-term health outcomes, particularly First Nations women and girls, those experiencing homelessness, and those experiencing domestic and family violence.
The Wellspring Hub is one of two pilot Integrated Women's Health Hubs funded by the Crisafulli Government. The second hub, Jalbu Women and Girls' Integrated Health Hub is located in Cairns and was officially opened in September 2025.
