Warm and wet weather creates ideal breeding conditions for mosquitoes. Avoid mozzie bites by following these simple steps:
🦟Cover up with long, loose-fitting clothing
🦟Use mosquito repellents containing Picaridin or DEET on all exposed skin
🦟Mosquito-proof your home and campsite with flyscreens on doors and windows
🦟Make sure there is no stagnant water around your campsite
🦟Use ‘knockdown’ fly spray, mosquito coils or plug-in repellent where you gather to sit or eat outdoors
🦟Don’t forget the kids – always check the insect repellent label. On babies, you might need to spray or rub repellent on their clothes instead of their skin. Avoid applying repellent to the hands of babies or young children

🌻 Happy International Day of Persons with Disabilities!

Today, we come together to recognise and celebrate the contributions of people living with disabilities and reaffirm our commitment to creating an inclusive and supportive community for all.

In line with this year’s theme – fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress – Grampians Health is proud to announce that we have joined the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Network (HDSN).

With around one in six Australians living with disability, and about 80% of those being non-visible, the sunflower initiative offers a simple and respectful way to signal when someone may need extra assistance, understanding or time.

As part of our involvement with HDSN, we will soon be introducing:

🌻 Sunflower pins for individuals who wish to discreetly indicate that they may require additional support.

🤍 White supporter pins for staff who want to show they are available to assist people with non-visible disabilities.

This initiative aligns with our Disability Action Plan and reflects our ongoing commitment to fostering a more inclusive, accessible, and understanding environment across our services and communities.

🎉 Celebrating 15 Years of Service – Vicki Ottrey 🎉

Today we proudly celebrate Vicki Ottrey for an incredible 15 years of dedicated service at Stawell Medical Centre!

As our Practice Nurse, Vicki plays a vital role in supporting our patients with care, compassion, and expertise every single day.

Her commitment to improving health outcomes and her genuine connection with our community is truly valued and appreciated.

Thank you, Vicki, for your outstanding contribution, your kindness, and your unwavering dedication over the past 15 years — we are so lucky to have you! 💙

For the first time, Stawell patients participating in rehabilitation programs will have access to a full range of gym equipment to support their strength training and recovery.

Thanks to a generous $32,000 donation from the Stawell Regional Health Foundation, the gym now features an elliptical cross trainer, dual pulley cable tower, leg press machine, dual leg curl/extension machine and additional dumbbells.

This upgrade benefits oncology, cardiac, pulmonary rehab clients, as well as physiotherapy and exercise physiology patients—impacting over 300 patients every year.

Thank you to the Foundation for making this possible!

✈️ Don’t catch measles on your holiday! Make sure you’re fully vaccinated against measles before you travel overseas. 2 doses are required for best, lifelong protection. 🛡️

If you’re not sure how many doses you’ve had, see your healthcare provider at least 6 weeks before your trip to complete your measles vaccination course.

If you need two doses of the measles vaccine, these are given at least four weeks apart. It is also best to receive your final vaccine at least two weeks before you depart, to allow your body time to develop immunity. It is important to factor these timings into your travel plans.

At our 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM), held on Wednesday, 26 November, we reflected on a year of progress in bringing care closer to home. From expanding women’s health services to upgrading infrastructure across our sites, we’re continuing to make healthcare more accessible for communities in western Victoria.

The AGM was also a chance to recognise the incredible commitment of our staff and volunteers, whose efforts help deliver better health outcomes across the region.

📢 Free sanitary products now available across all campuses!

We’re proud to support a Victorian Government initiative providing free pads and tampons across Grampians Health.

New vending machines have been installed in accessible non-gender toilets at our Ballarat, Horsham, Stawell, Dimboola and Edenhope campuses thanks to our Support Services team – helping remove barriers, reduce stress and support a more inclusive experience for everyone.

Chief Redevelopment and Infrastructure Officer Veronica Furnier said the project represented an important step toward building a more inclusive and supportive healthcare environment.

“By offering free pads and tampons in convenient locations, we’re helping to normalise menstrual health, reduce stigma and ensure that no one is placed under unnecessary stress because they don’t have access to essential products,” Veronica said.

📍Located in the toilets located in Urgent Care and the Community Rehabilitation Centre.

November 9–15 is Perioperative Nurses Week 💙

We’re celebrating the incredible nurses who care for patients before, during, and after surgery.

Our Ballarat team celebrated in the sweetest way: with a show-stopping cake baked by Libby Fenton, one of our talented Perioperative Nurses (and clearly a master baker!). This wasn’t just any cake, it was a layered chocolate, red velvet, white chocolate and raspberry masterpiece featuring caricatures of the entire theatre team, complete with their unique scrub caps!

Libby said it best: “I like making a cake to celebrate our amazing team and give everyone a chance to enjoy the week together.”

A big thank you to Libby and all our Perioperative Nurses across campuses for their care and dedication every day. You truly make a difference!
