The risk of cardiovascular disease increases significantly after menopause. This is due to the changes in oestrogen levels. Oestrogen helps keep blood vessels flexible and dilated, promoting healthy blood flow. The reduction in oestrogen levels during menopause can lead to increased arterial stiffness and higher blood pressure, both of which are risk factors for cardiovascular disease. In under 5 minutes, you can have a multi-point health check on the SiSU Health Station, including blood pressure and heart rate checks.

What is the goal of Latrobe Health Services’ partnership with Phoenix Australia ? We saw a true need to bring accessible resources and bulk-billed posttraumatic specialist assessment and treatment planning services to regional Victoria and Phoenix Australia are the experts to do just that. Did you know that two-thirds of Australians will suffer a traumatic event each year, resulting in a range of negative mental health consequences from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to depression and addictive disorders? As part of our ongoing commitment to our community and members, we have invested in this service because the impact of trauma (and repeated trauma) is felt particularly strongly in regional and rural communities, which disproportionately bear the brunt of natural disasters and health workforce shortages. Here are some key facts about the program so far: ✔️ 284 clients were referred to the service since Latrobe Health Services began supporting Phoenix Australia in November 2022. ✔️ 1614 appointments were booked with no out-of-pocket cost (according to Medicare, on average Victorians pay $179 out of pocket per assessment appointment). ✔️ These appointments have been provided at no cost – estimated to have saved patients collectively $288,906 Find out more here https://bit.ly/3TkIUfT #trauma #mentalhealth #disasterrecovery #resilience #mentalhealth #mentalhealthresources #wellbeing #health #trauma

Thrilled to sponsor the transformative journey of Jack Symes through the Gippsland Community Leadership Program (GCLP).
