🎁 AN EARLY CHRISTMAS SURPRISE FOR TARARUA 🎄

We’ve got a little early Christmas present to share with our community!

From late January, ultrasound services will resume at Tararua Health Group, thanks to a sonographer with over 30 years’ experience joining the team.

Here’s what this means for patients 👇

🩻 Faster access to ultrasound services
📍 Care delivered locally, closer to home
🤍 A calm, supportive patient experience
⏱️ Reduced need to travel outside the district

We’ll share more details in the new year. For now, we’re excited to let you know that something very positive is on its way for ultrasound services in Tararua.

📣 REMINDER: MEN’S HEALTH MATTERS ALL YEAR ROUND 💙

Movember might be done, and the moustaches might be gone, but the need to look after yourself remains the same.

No matter what you’re into, every fella needs a few basics: eat well, move a bit, go easy on the booze, and ditch the smokes and vapes. Simple as.

And as you clock up a few more birthdays, there are a couple of extra checks worth keeping an eye on too. Think of it like giving yourself a WOF, just without the hassle of finding a park.

🎄 FEELING THE YEAR-END RUSH? 😴

The lead-up to Christmas can feel full on, and it’s easy to get swept up in the busy days and long to-do lists.

If things are starting to feel a bit heavy, take a moment to rest or ask for support. Sometimes, a short pause is all you need, and things feel easier when you don’t carry them alone.

Be kind to yourself as we head into the holiday season. ✨
