Weight Loss Program:

The three areas are meal planning, exercise, and motivation. The program offers flexibility, variety, and support and education so you can lose the kilos and keep them off. You also get a free diary and a personal coach. Come in and see us to learn more about the program.

Home and Residential Medication Management Reviews:
A Home medication Management Review is a free service funded by the Commonwealth Government involving your pharmacist visiting your home to review your medications and then working with your doctor to develop a plan to manage and record your medications. This ensures that your medications are appropriate for you, safe to take together and taken correctly. A Home Medication Management Review can increase your knowledge and confidence about your medications and their uses and can also reduce your risk of hospitalisation due to medication mismanagement. Over 105,000 Australians are admitted to hospital each year due to avoidable medication problems. Don’t become one of them. Ask your pharmacist about a free Home Medication Management Review today.
