In one of the Northern Territory's remotest communities, Ngukurr, indigenous residents are accusing the region's Aboriginal health service of failing to respond to emergencies on a regular basis. They're alleging it's contributed to at least one premature death, and damaged long term health outcomes for other patients.
The Sunrise Health Service says its struggling to recruit enough staff to man its indigenous community clinics, and it's a problem common to many remote health organisations.
