The annual 16 Days in WA Stop Violence Against Women campaign began in the Wheatbelt yesterday with the launch of Safe-T Campaign by Share & Care Community Services Group Inc. The campaign was initiated after several incidents of Family & Domestic Violence have taken place in the region, and victims of the violence have asked shop/business owners to assist them in getting to safety.... Local businesses are asked to provide a safe place for someone in need and can display a sticker for the community to see. Please contact Jacey Brown at Share & Care for more information. #community #safespace #helpinghands

03.01.2022 Cervical screening has changed in Australia. The Pap test has been replaced with a new Cervical Screening Test. Your first Cervical Screening Test is due at 25 years of age or two years after your last Pap test. If your result is normal you will be due in five years to have your next test.... In 2020 Sue Hardy (Nurse Practitioner Toodyay) and Elaine (Registered Nurse Northam) have been trained to perform the screening tests. Book in now and make sure you stay healthy.. the earlier we identify any abnormal issues the sooner it can be treated.. #cervicalscreening #womenshealth #wheatbelt
