Have you heard of Advance Care Planning (ACP)? It ensures your healthcare preferences are clear if you became seriously ill or injured and unable to communicate them. 🏥

ACP is voluntary and relevant to all adults regardless of their health status or age. Start planning when you're healthy—before there's an urgent need for a plan.

Planning your treatment preferences early helps your loved ones and health providers know what matters most to you. 🥰

The most common ACP documents in Queensland are:
👉 an Advance Health Directive: a legally binding document that allows you to give directions about your future or special healthcare
👉 an enduring power of attorney: that allows you to legally appoint attorney(s) and set out terms for how the power operates
👉 a statement of choices: a values-based document that records your wishes and preferences for healthcare.

It's important to share these completed documents with those involved in your care and provide copies of your documents to the Statewide Office of Advance Care Planning to be added to your Queensland Health medical record.

Learn more about these documents, and how to create your plan here: https://www.qld.gov.au/health/support/advance-care-planning/making-a-plan

There are two types of people in this world: people who pick their nose and people who lie about it. 🫢 👃

Now we've got that out of the way, let's talk about what's really happening when you jam your fingers in your snoot. Cause let's be real, we know you do. 👀

Your nose contains cells that produce mucus (aka snot) that helps trap viruses, bacteria and dust before it enters your airways.

Essentially, snot is the MVP of your nose, working hard to reduce your risk of illness, inflammation and asthma.

When you pick your nose, you risk:
☝️ spreading the illness-causing germs that are stuck in your snot
☝️ pushing germs that are already stuck in your nose further into your body
☝️ leaving tiny cuts in your nasal tissue, which bacteria can get into and cause infection
☝️ damaging the delicate blood vessels in your nose, which can cause nose bleeds.

Already picked it, now what? Lower your fingers from your mouth, for starters. 🤮

Use a tissue to wipe up your boogers and be sure to wash your hands with soap and water after. This helps to remove any germs that might be lingering on your hands and fingers.
