Celebrating International Allied Health Professions Day! 🎉 As James Maskell, author of The Community Cure, highlighted at the recent HCANZA conference, community-driven collaboration is the future of healthcare.

Today is World Mental Health Day 🧠 It's a timely reminder that health isn't just about physical wellbeing, but also about our mental and emotional state. As health coaches, we play a vital role in supporting the whole person, recognising the intricate link between mental health and chronic conditions. Integrated care is essential for empowering individuals to take charge of their health. By fostering self-care practices and building confidence, we can help patients achieve better outcomes and improve their overall quality of life. The Australian Self-Care Alliance is championing this holistic approach, working to align healthcare systems and promote patient-centred care. Want to learn more?
