🎀 October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in Australia, with 1 in 7 women expected to be diagnosed in their lifetime. While some risk factors like age and family history can't be changed, many lifestyle choices can help reduce your risk.

What you can do:
• Limit alcohol consumption: Even small amounts can increase risk.
• Maintain a healthy weight: Being overweight or obese, especially after menopause, increases risk.
• Stay active: Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate activity most days.
• Breastfeed if possible: This can slightly lower risk.
• Don't smoke: Smoking is linked to increased risk, particularly in younger women.

Regular self-exams and being aware of any changes can help with early detection.

Screening saves lives! offers women over 40 a free mammogram every two years, and those aged 50–74 are actively invited to screen.

Your GP is here to help. Discuss any concerns or symptoms with your GP. They can guide you through risk assessment, screening options, and preventive strategies tailored to you.

Book an appointment with your GP today to discuss your breast health.

From 1 July 2025, the Australian Government introduced MyMedicare — a program to help patients receive more coordinated, ongoing care from their chosen GP clinic.
You don’t have to register for MyMedicare.

However, if you choose to register, it’s important to sign up with the clinic you want to manage your ongoing care plans. If you register with another clinic, we will not be able to provide your chronic disease care plans — even if you normally see us.
Patients registered with MyMedicare are eligible for:
• Longer telehealth GP consultations (Level C & D)
• Medicare-funded care for chronic and complex conditions
• Coordinated, personalised care from their chosen GP clinic

If you want to:
• Keep accessing longer telehealth appointments
• Have your regular GP manage your care plans
• Receive regular reviews and support for chronic conditions
➡ Then consider registering for MyMedicare — and choose our clinic when you do.

How to register:
Log in to MyGov > Medicare > MyMedicare > Register
• Or ask us at reception for a paper form
• We’re here to keep your care continuous and connected. Registering with us ensures we can continue providing the services you rely on.

🧠 Dementia Action Week, 15- 21 September

This year’s theme: “Act Now for a Dementia-Friendly Future”. This initiative aims to raise awareness, reduce stigma, and encourage community support for those living with dementia.

Over 433,000 Australians are living with dementia, a number expected to double in the coming decades. Despite this, many still perceive dementia as a normal part of aging. In reality, dementia is a brain condition that affects memory, thinking, and behavior, and is not a normal part of aging.

Your GP can play a key role in supporting those with dementia. From early diagnosis and medication management to coordinating care and supporting families, GPs ensure a comprehensive approach to managing dementia. They also provide referrals to specialists and support services to improve quality of life.

Act now—book an appointment today to discuss dementia care and support with your GP.

A conversation can change a life, and that includes a conversation with your GP.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stressed, or unsure about your mental health, reaching out to your GP is a vital first step. Your GP will conduct a comprehensive mental health check, taking the time to listen and understand what you're going through.

They can provide tailored suggestions, whether it’s connecting you with mental health professionals, offering coping strategies, or discussing treatment options. Starting the conversation can open the door to the support and care you need to move forward.

Don’t wait—your GP is here to help you prioritise your mental wellbeing.

It’s Still Important to Get Your Flu Vaccine 💉

Flu season is still here, and annual vaccination is the best way to protect yourself and those around you. The flu vaccine is recommended for everyone aged 6 months and over, and especially for children, pregnant women, older adults, and those with certain health conditions.

Vaccination:
• Reduces your risk of catching or spreading the flu
• Lessens severity if you do get sick
• Protects vulnerable loved ones
• Helps you avoid missing work, school, or day care

Book your flu shot today and stay protected this season!

Prioritise your Health this Women’s Health Week! 🌸

This week is all about putting you first. We believe in empowering women to take control of their health at every stage of life. This year’s theme is ‘Say Yes to You’.

Here are some key tips to help you prioritise your wellbeing:
• Every check-up matters: Understanding what's normal for your body starts with regular health checks. Stay up to date on your bowel health, breast health, and cervical screening with your GP.
• Take the lead: Be proactive and ask questions with your GP about your health. Take control by having informed conversations and understanding your body’s needs.
• Heart smart: Heart disease affects women in ways often overlooked. Let’s talk about it and take control of your heart health.
• Pain to power: Pain isn’t just “part of being a woman,” and you don’t have to push through it alone. Speak with our GPs about managing common pain conditions.
• Be kind to your mind: Mental health is just as important as physical health. Your GP can help you uncover ways to be resilient and empowered throughout life.

Book an appointment with your GP today and prioritise your health this Women’s Health Week and beyond.
