🟡 R U OK? Day – A Reminder to Check In🟡
At Family Practice Yamba, we believe that good health includes mental and emotional wellbeing—and that starts with connection.

This R U OK? Day, we’re encouraging everyone to pause and ask a simple but powerful question: “Are you OK?” Whether it’s a friend, a colleague, a neighbour, or a loved one, reaching out can make a real difference.

💬 You don’t need to be an expert—just a good listener.
👂 Sometimes, the most healing thing is knowing someone cares.
🏡 In our family practice, we see every patient as part of our extended community. So today, and every day, we’re here to support you—not just physically, but emotionally too.

If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out. Our team is here to help guide you to the right support.

Let’s keep the conversation going. Because asking “R U OK?” could be the start of someone’s healing journey.

💙 It’s Origin time — and NSW is locking in a blue-ribbon finish! 🏆
The Blues have shown up with precision, poise, and pure footy brilliance. This final game isn’t just a battle — it’s a clinic. And speaking of clinics, Family Practice Yamba know a thing or two about peak performance: clear communication, cohesive teamwork, and cool-headed decision-making under pressure.
📋 Just like in our waiting rooms and consult rooms, every pass and tackle is part of a game plan designed for results. The Blues aren’t just aiming to win — they’re setting a standard for how preparation meets ex*****on.
So whether you're cheering from the stands or catching highlights between patients, let’s rally behind NSW as they bring it home!
