Did you know on 23 January 1922, the first successful insulin injection was given to a human patient, changing the course of medical history.

Fourteen-year-old Leonard Thompson, who had severe type 1 diabetes, received a purified insulin extract that dramatically improved his condition.

Before insulin, diabetes was considered a death sentence. This breakthrough has since saved and transformed the lives of millions of people worldwide. While treatments continue to advance, there is still no cure for diabetes.

Today, we recognise this milestone and the lasting impact of scientific discovery on global health.

Your words can make screening feel safe, or stop someone from engaging altogether.

Every conversation about lung health is a chance to build trust, reduce fear, and support better outcomes for your patients. If you work in healthcare, how you communicate matters more than you might realise.

This blog explores why stigma still gets in the way, and how health professionals can change that.

Today is World Religion Day.

Did you know there are over 4,000 religions worldwide, with over 300 distinct religious groups represented in Australia (source: ABS)?

Faith can influence behaviours, such as observing fasts or dietary restrictions, which can affect health decisions.

Asking about one's beliefs can help provide care that is aligned with patient values and looking after the whole person. Respectful questions could include:
• “Do you have any spiritual or cultural practices that are important for your care?”
• “Are there any beliefs or traditions we should be aware of to support you better?”

What questions have you asked in the past?

General practice is deeply rewarding, and demanding. While you support patients every day, your own wellbeing can easily slip down the list. Alongside sleep, movement, and nutrition, practices like mindfulness or meditation can help restore energy, balance, and emotional resilience.

Start small. One simple, sustainable change at a time is more likely to stick than trying to do everything at once.
