The West Arthur Health and Resource Centre was constructed in 1999, with funding support from the Lotteries Commission and Department of Health. The West Arthur Health and Resource Centre is managed by the staff of the West Arthur Telecentre. This facility has enabled the Shire to attract many visiting professionals, such as doctor, chiropractor, and general nurse. The Shire's Landcare officer also works out of the Health and Resource Centre.
