Meet Rylee, our Health Improvement Practitioner
Kia ora,
My name is Rylee, and I am the Health Improvement Practitioner (HIP) here at Gore Medical Centre. I work within the Access and Choice/Toku Oranga Programme through WellSouth.
Access and choice is a free wellbeing service that is designed to make mental health and wellbeing support easier to access, offering guidance for people experiencing, stress, anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties, grief, chronic health conditions, pain and other life challenges or concerns that may be impacting their overall wellbeing.
As a HIP, I work alongside people to provide brief, practical support that focuses on helping them build skills and strategies to improve their wellbeing. Appointments are usually around 20-30 minutes and can assist with a wide range of concerns. There is no issue too small and often just one session can help people take positive next steps.
Anyone who is enrolled at the practice can come and see me! I look forward to supporting our community.
If you would like to book in with Rylee, give our reception team a call on 03 2089222, no referral required.
