"My husband and I moved to Bribie to retire in 2008. We love it here; I always wanted to live by the water. Before I started on Dialysis, I used to do ceramics and patchwork quilting, and my husband fished. Nowadays we like to go for drives on sunny days and visit the local shops. We're both very grateful to have each other, we take life as it comes."

You may not realise it, but in the heart of Spring Hill is a team helping those in the Brisbane CBD who are experiencing homelessness. ❤️‍🩹

We joined some of our Homeless Health Outreach Team as they shared how they provide mental health support for the community, outside the walls of our hospitals.

Our Cancer Care team at Bribie Island Satellite Health Centre are there to support our patients, from greeting them as they first walk in the door through to sitting with patients while they undergo treatment. ❤️‍🩹

Cancer Care Admin Officer, Amanda, is one friendly face who makes sure patients are comfortable and safe as they navigate the cancer treatment process.

"The satisfaction I get when I see a patient happy is hard to put into words. I`m very passionate about my patients," she says.

"Bribie is an aging community, and our patients are extremely grateful to have this facility so close to home."

👏 A big #ShoutoutSaturday to Amanda and our wonderful Cancer Care team at Bribie Island Satellite Health Centre for all their hard work.

If the peptide injectable treatments that you`ve seen online sound too good to be true, promoting rapid weight loss and flawless skin, then they probably are. 💉🤳

RBWH Pharmacist Sahra strongly advises against the use of any injectable product without consulting proper medical advice first and says that many of these unregulated peptides can cause more harm than good.

“While some, like prescription-only medications such as Ozempic® and insulins, are approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration, the injectable peptides being promoted online often fall outside this regulated category,” she says.

“Many unregulated injectable peptides are sold through wellness websites with health claims including weight loss, muscle growth, anti-aging and enhanced cognitive and athletic performance.

“There are no guarantees that unregulated products contain the correct ingredients or are produced in sterile facilities. Users may unknowingly inject contaminated or poor‑quality substances, or administer incorrect doses, putting their health at serious risk.”
