Bridging the Gap between Homelessness and Healthcare
Hear from an extraordinary young Australian – learn what it means to make a difference
At just 26-years-old, identifying a gap in the healthcare of vulnerable people in New South Wales, Dr Daniel Nour founded Street Side Medics in August 2020. It’s a not-for-profit, GP-led mobile medical service for people experiencing homelessness.With 500 volunteers, and six clinics across New South Wales, Street Side Medics has changed the lives of thousands of patients. It has treated many communicable and non-communicable illnesses, dealt with neglected medical needs, and detected conditions that would otherwise have gone unnoticed. Despite working full-time at Royal North Shore Hospital, Daniel has rarely missed a clinic across the six sites since Street Side Medics launched. He volunteers his afternoons to ensure the clinics are run smoothly and patients are receiving the care they deserve. With his leadership and social consciousness, Daniel is committed to making a real difference to the lives of many Australians.
