Moving to a Remote Locality
A Guide for Employees and their Families when moving to a Remote Locality
These guides have been developed to assist Parks and Wildlife employees and their families when moving to a Ranger station in a remote locality.
Each Park is unique and has a variety of services in either close proximity
or some distance away in the nearest established town or community.
It is hoped that the guides will give some idea of what services are available in a particular location and what might be expected upon arrival with regard to schooling, health, shopping, and communications. It also incorporates what the Parks and Wildlife employee and the family is entitled to by way of allowances, fares etc.
It is not always easy to cope with the isolation and demands upon a family, however there are support and community groups which can be tapped into and this information has also been included.
