Do you know how to perform CPR?
Emergencies can happen and CPR saves lives. This week I attended the CPR refresher course held by @faae_gc which has both theoretical and practical components.
CPR is not just for doctors to learn, you too could learn how to save a life and be a hero.

Have you had your skin check?
This year I’m continuing to improve my skin cancer knowledge by completing certificates from the Australasian College of Dermatologists.
Skin cancer will affect 2 in 3 Australians at some point in their lives so it is important to have your skin checked regularly. If you notice any new or changing moles, for example a change in size, shape, colour or whether they are itchy or bleeding, be sure to book in for a full skin check.
Of course prevention is the best cure, so don’t forget the sun block for days when the UV index is 3 or higher.

Did you know that Australia has the most cosmetic procedures per capita in the world?🥇 That’s right, in 2017 Australians spent an estimated $1 billion on cosmetic procedures.
While it’s great that more people are opening up to the benefits of these treatments, it’s important to remember that these treatments do carry risks.
As a non-surgical trainer, I am honoured to be in a position where I can seriously advocate to my delegates the risks involved and the safest methods of injecting.
For anyone wishing to consider cosmetic procedures, please ensure you do your due diligence and research your cosmetic provider.
I hope that you’re all in safe hands whilst looking fresh and fabulous.

Who felt happy that after leaving school or university you never had to ‘learn’ again?
I remember this exact feeling until I realised that in reality we never stop learning. From job experience, to self-directed study or even watching YouTube videos we are constantly absorbing information.
Continuing to learn throughout life has many benefits, such as improving your confidence, fighting boredom and keeping your brain active and sharp which has been shown to help reduce the risk of memory issues such as Dementia later in life.
What have you learned today?
Take care and stay healthy 😘
