Boab’s newest podiatrist flies over the floods

Recent flooding over Roebuck Plains in the West Kimberley has made access to Bidyadanga Community difficult for Boab Health’s clinicians who usually travel by 4WD. However that didn’t stop podiatrist Helen McCausland running a podiatry clinic at Bidyadanga on February 13th as she was lucky enough to catch a flight with the Royal Flying Doctor Service and fly over the floods. Helen is Boab’s newest podiatrist and had only been in the Kimberley for 2 weeks when she flew out to Bidyadanga and took this photo on the way. According to Bidyadanga clinic staff the road hasn’t been that submerged for many years.
