Kununurra, East Kimberley: For two very good reasons, last year was a stand-out year for the Ord Valley Aboriginal Health Service (OVAHS). Firstly, the corporation (on 1 September 2014) celebrated 30 years of service to the Aboriginal people of Kununurra and surrounding communities.

And, secondly, OVAHS became the first ever Aboriginal medical service in regional and remote Western Australia to achieve the international accreditation standard ISO 9001: 2008 for quality management.
