Happy International Nurse Day to all of our wonderful nurses here at Harrow Bush Nursing Centre. For this year’s International Nurses Day, the International Council of Nurses (ICN) is highlighting the economic power of care, with the goal of reshaping perceptions and demonstrating how strategic investment in nursing can bring considerable economic and societal benefits. Celebrated on 12 May each year, the IND theme is chosen by ICN – a federation of more than 130 national nursing associations around the world, representing over 28 million nursing working globally. ICN President, Dr Pamela Cipriano, said the 2024 IND theme: Our Nurses. Our Future. The economic power of care, was a call to action to invest more in the profession. Thank you to the amazing nurses that care for Harrow and district .. we love you!
HBNC thanks our wonderful midwives: Jo McCure & Adrienne Caldow on the important work that they do at the centre. Harrow and district are very fortunate to have you both.
Happy administrative professional day! We would be lost without our admin team and their support staff. Jane and Lynne keep all the plates spinning and keep a smile on their faces while doing it. They are the first face people see, they are the first voice on the phone, they are asked all the questions and are across all of our daily programs. Thank you for all you do for the HBNC and for our community.

Tai Chi Qigong flow presented by Loren Linto; who has been training through Exercise Medicine Australia over the last two years. This flow was taught to our participants over Term 2. All current participants were beginners at the start and we welcome any new participants each term. We are learning a new sequence again next term. Loren teaches each movement and gives verbal and visual cues throughout the practice. This 50 minute class will resume again in Term 3, Wednesday the 12th July. Participants have said "their balance has improved, it's a nice gentle form of exercises and it's good to test the brain too". Tai Chi is a part of our Neighbourhood House program as it improves mental and physical health and fitness, functional ability and the quality of life for all. Not everyone can do all of the movements in this video and Loren gives alternatives as needed, come along a try a new form of exercise- you will love it.

Got a feeling that someone you know or care about it isn’t behaving as they normally would? Perhaps they seem out of sorts? More agitated or withdrawn? Or they’re just not themselves. Trust that gut instinct and act on it. Learn more about the signs and when it's time to ask R U OK? here. By starting a conversation and commenting on the changes you’ve noticed, you could help that family member, friend or workmate open up. If they say they are not OK, you can follow our conversation steps to show them they’re supported and help them find strategies to better manage the load. If they are OK, that person will know you’re someone who cares enough to ask.
August 8 - 14 is National Stroke Week. Learn the signs so you can act FAST to enjoy precious moments.
