Our History In its beginning, the Central Australian Remote Health Development Services Ltd (CARHDS) started life as a support organisation for the development of Aboriginal community controlled health services. From a demountable at the Institute for Aboriginal Development (IAD), its predecessor, the Central Australian Remote Training Unit (CARTHU) was established. In 2001 CARHDS was independently incorporated under ASIC and became its own entity with its membership comprised from Central Australian Health Services.

CARHDS has been responsible for much of the primary health care training, governance and cross-cultural training required by the ACCHOs as they established themselves as health services in Central Australia. Over time, CARHDS role shifted towards ATSIHP upskilling in ACCHOS and the NT Department of Health.
