💊 🩺 ❤️ Celebrating National Thank Your Pharmacist Day - 26 March

Today, on National Thank Your Pharmacist Day (26 March), we’re celebrating the incredible contribution pharmacists make to patient care every day.

Pharmacists are a vital part of Australia’s healthcare system, supporting safe and effective use of medicines, providing advice, and improving access to care across our communities.

At GHFP, we’re proud to have our Primary Care Pharmacist, Michael Connolly, as part of our team - working alongside our GPs to support better health outcomes for our patients.

We also extend a heartfelt thank you to our local Community Pharmacists, who we work closely with to ensure our patients receive the best possible care.

👏 Today is a great reminder to say “thank you” to your pharmacist for the important role they play in keeping our community healthy.

Tuning in to stress 🧠💭

Stress doesn’t always show up the way we expect — but your body is always communicating with you.

Learning to listen is a powerful first step. At some point, your body will tell you when something needs to change… are you noticing the signs?

Two common (and often overlooked) signals:
😴 Sleep Are you struggling to fall asleep, or waking in the night and lying awake for hours? Stress and sleep are closely linked. When your mind is busy with worry or overthinking, your body stays on high alert — making deep, restful sleep feel out of reach. Over time, this can lead to that exhausting cycle of feeling tired but wired.
🍽️ Appetite & digestion Stress can change what, when, and how you eat. You might lose your appetite — or find yourself eating more than usual. Cravings for highly processed foods can increase, which can impact digestion, hormones, and mood. You may also notice changes in your bowel habits or digestion.

✨ The key is awareness. Tuning into your sleep patterns, appetite, and digestion can help you better understand your stress levels — and when it might be time to seek support.

You don’t have to manage it alone. If stress is affecting your daily life, our team is here to help.

This week we’re celebrating Neurodiversity Celebration Week (16–20 March 2026) 🌈

Neurodiversity recognises that every brain works differently — and those differences bring valuable strengths, perspectives, creativity, and innovation to our communities, schools, and workplaces.

During this week, we acknowledge and celebrate neurodivergent people, including those who are autistic, have ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, Tourette syndrome and other neurological differences. Together we can help build a world that understands, includes and supports every kind of mind.

Let’s use this week to:
✨ Challenge stereotypes
✨ Promote understanding and acceptance
✨ Celebrate the strengths of neurodivergent people
✨ Create environments where everyone can thrive

Different minds. Different ways of thinking. One stronger community.

Everyone is welcome here.
