🎊Today, we’re celebrating International Nurses Day and taking a moment to acknowledge the incredible work of our practice nurse.

🎯This year’s theme, "Our Nurses. Our Future. Empowered Nurses Save Lives", reminds us how vital nurses are to strong, person‑centred primary care. When nurses are supported and empowered, the entire community benefits.

💙Thank you for everything you do, and for the calm, skill, and kindness you bring to every patient interaction. We’re so grateful to have you as part of our team.

🌟We’re so delighted to welcome Dr Fiona Watt back to Ponsonby Medical Centre. She began her GP career here almost 40 years ago, and it’s a special full‑circle moment to have her return.

💙Dr Watt brings extensive experience from her years of working in practices across Auckland in Kingsland and New Lynn. She enjoys the scope and all aspects of general practice as well as the relationships that she builds with patients over time.

🎊We’re thrilled to have her back with us and know our community will feel the same.

🌡️As the days get colder and more bugs start circulating, it's good to know the common symptoms of a cold, the flu, or COVID‑19. Because these illnesses all affect your airways, it’s always a good idea to rule out COVID‑19 first with a quick RAT test.

💙If your symptoms linger for more than two weeks or if your flu symptoms become severe, it’s best to check in with your doctor for support.

👉You can learn more about symptoms and how to care for yourself at home here:

Stay warm, stay well, and look after yourself this season.

✅Flu season is here, and now is the perfect time to protect yourself and your family. This year’s flu vaccine is available, and getting immunised is one of the simplest ways to reduce your risk of becoming seriously unwell.

The flu vaccine is free for those most at risk. It is funded for everyone aged 65 and over, and also for people under 65 who may be more vulnerable — including those with long‑term health conditions, reduced immune function, pregnancy, specific mental health or addiction needs, and children aged 4 and under who have been hospitalised for respiratory illness or have a history of significant respiratory illness.

📅 Book your flu vaccine today by calling reception on 09 378 7916.

🌍 This year’s World Health Day theme, “Together for health. Stand with science,” is a reminder that good health is shaped by equity, prevention, mental wellbeing, and the everyday choices that help reduce our risk of chronic disease.

🌿 It’s a moment to reflect on the essentials that support healthier communities — from nutritious food, clean water, and sanitation to vaccines, medicines, infection control, and mental health care.

✨ Science powers better health outcomes, and staying informed helps us all make choices that support long‑term wellbeing.

💤Quality rest plays a big role in your mental and emotional wellbeing, and even small changes in your routine can make a difference.

🌙If the long weekend gives you a bit more breathing room, try using it to unwind, reset your sleep rhythm, and give your mind a chance to recharge. And if stress or ongoing worries are affecting how well you sleep, having a chat with your GP can be a helpful first step.

🌼 March is Endometriosis Awareness Month
It affects 1 in 10 girls, women, and people assigned female at birth in New Zealand. For many, it brings symptoms like significant period pain, pelvic pain, and challenges with fertility.

🎯This year’s theme, “Your Story Shaping Our Future,” highlights how endometriosis impacts far more than health. Delayed diagnosis and limited access to care mean too many people face these challenges alone.

✅If you’re experiencing symptoms or something doesn’t feel right, book an appointment with your GP. You deserve to be heard and supported.
