BUSHFIRE READY 2026

With another bushfire season approaching, now is the time to make sure you, your family, and your property are prepared.

This weekend, the Bushfire Ready event will showcase the many ways our community prepares for and responds to bushfires. It's a great opportunity to learn from local emergency services, see firefighting equipment up close, and pick up practical tips that could make a real difference in an emergency.

🩺 Dr Alex Sleeman will also be presenting a short talk at about 11:30am on Saturday on the health impacts of bushfires and how to prepare medically before an emergency occurs.

Topics will include:
✅ Ensuring you have enough essential medications on hand
✅ Preparing a bushfire medical kit
✅ Managing chronic health conditions during emergencies
✅ Protecting yourself from smoke exposure
✅ Planning for vulnerable family members, including children, older adults, and those with medical conditions

Being bushfire ready isn't just about your home and property. It's also about making sure your health needs are covered if you need to leave quickly or if services are disrupted.

We encourage everyone in the community to come along, learn something new, and take a few simple steps that could make a big difference this summer.

🚒 See you at Bushfire Ready this weekend!

Good luck to all Year 12 students sitting their ATAR exams starting today!

Everyone at Denmark Family Practice would like to wish our local students the very best as they begin their exams.

We are especially proud of our partnership with Denmark Senior High School, where we work together to provide a clinic service within the school and support the health and wellbeing of students throughout their education journey.

While ATAR exams are an important milestone, they are just one pathway to achieving your future goals. There are many different routes into university, training, and rewarding careers, so remember that these exams do not define your worth or your potential.

Do your best, look after yourself, get plenty of rest, and remember that success comes in many forms.

If you become unwell on the day of an exam, the team at Denmark Family Practice will do our best to see you promptly and assist with the medical documentation required by the School Curriculum and Standards Authority.

Good luck, Year 12s. The Denmark community is cheering you on! 🎓📚

22 years ago, the waiting room at Dr Jane James Surgery was dressed up for Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Fast forward to today, and while the name on the door has changed to Denmark Family Practice, our community spirit certainly hasn't!

This year, our waiting room is once again turning heads, thanks to a fabulous collection of creatively decorated bras proudly on display.

Patients and visitors are invited to:
🎀 Admire the creations
🎀 Make a donation to support breast cancer awareness
🎀 Vote for their favourite bra

It's all a bit of fun, but behind every ribbon, bra and vote is an important reminder about breast awareness, early detection and regular screening (remember to book your free screening mammogram when the Breastscreen WA truck visits).

So pop in, have a look, pick your favourite and help us support a cause that's close to many hearts (and chests!).

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

This month is a great reminder to be breast aware and to make your breast health a priority.

We're pleased to let our community know that the BreastScreen WA mobile screening service will be visiting Denmark from 12 November to 8 January, making it easier for eligible women to access this important screening service. You can book your mammogram at the following website:
https://www.breastscreen.health.wa.gov.au/Breast-screening/Making-an-appointment/Book-Online

To help raise awareness and start conversations, we've also been having a little fun in the waiting room. Our team and community have decorated a collection of bras, which are now proudly on display!

Come in, take a look, and cast your vote for your favourite decorated bra.

While breast cancer is a serious topic, awareness, early detection, and community support can make a real difference. We hope our display brings a smile while reminding everyone of the importance of looking after their health.

🎓 Congratulations Catana! 🎓

Everyone at Denmark Family Practice would like to congratulate Catana on an incredible achievement, graduating with a Master of Nursing (Nurse Practitioner) from Edith Cowan University.

This qualification represents years of dedication, advanced study, clinical placements, examinations, and professional development. What makes it even more remarkable is that Catana completed much of this journey while working, while pregnant with baby Sterling, and finished her final requirements while caring for a newborn.

Becoming a Nurse Practitioner is a significant milestone that will allow Catana to work alongside our GPs in an expanded clinical role, helping improve patient access to care, continuity of care, prescribing, and multidisciplinary healthcare services for our community.

We're incredibly proud to have supported Catana throughout this journey and look forward to welcoming her back to Denmark Family Practice in the future as a Nurse Practitioner.

For now, Catana is enjoying maternity leave with young Sterling, who is keeping everyone entertained with his cheeky smile, impressive set of lungs, furniture cruising adventures, and enthusiastic dog-chasing!

Please join us in congratulating Catana on this outstanding achievement and wishing her and Sterling all the very best. 💙

Get involved in our Breast Awareness Month fundraiser!

Our team at Denmark Family Practice has been busy decorating bras as part of a fun competition to raise awareness and support breast cancer research. The decorated bras are now proudly on display in our waiting room.

Come in, have a look, and cast your vote for your favourite bra! A small donation will allow you to vote, with all proceeds going towards breast cancer research.

We'd love to know which creation gets your vote! 💗

Important: If you have any breast symptoms, such as a lump, ni**le changes, breast pain, skin changes, or any other concerns, a screening mammogram is not the right first step. Please make an appointment with one of our GPs at Denmark Family Practice so your symptoms can be properly assessed.

This Breast Awareness Month, take a moment to look after your own health, support a great cause, and encourage the women in your life to do the same.

💙 National Safe Work Month 💙

Every worker deserves to return home safely at the end of the day.

This month, we're recognising the importance of workplace safety, injury prevention and supporting those recovering from workplace injuries.

We're fortunate to have Dr Christine Archer at Denmark Family Practice, who is highly experienced in managing workers' compensation injuries. Dr Archer helps patients navigate their recovery journey with a focus on achieving the best possible health outcomes and a safe return to work.

If you've experienced a workplace injury and need medical support, we're here to help.

Contact us to make an appointment.

Week Two of School Holidays... How's everyone holding up?

The snacks are disappearing at record speed. The phrase "I'm bored" has already been heard a thousand times. And parents across Denmark are wondering how there is still another week to go!

Even our doctors seem to be feeling the school holiday energy... as you can see! 🤣

If you've been putting off a check-up, need repeat prescriptions sorted before school returns, or have a few health concerns you'd like to discuss, we're here to help throughout the holidays.

In the meantime, enjoy the holiday adventures, survive the sibling negotiations, and cherish the memories (even the chaotic ones)!

From all of us at Denmark Family Practice, we hope you're having a wonderful school break.

🌟 Meet the Woman Who Keeps Denmark Family Practice Running! 🌟

Every workplace has that one person who knows where everything is, keeps everyone organised, gets us through audits, and somehow holds the whole place together.

For us, that's Kerry Strydom.

Born in Durban, South Africa, Kerry arrived in Australia 32 years ago and has packed more adventure into her life than most of us could fit into three lifetimes. She's lived in wildlife reserves, waterskied alongside giraffes and zebras, fended off pythons, worked in textiles, travelled throughout WA, and even married her childhood swimming club sweetheart, Trevor.

Thankfully for us, Kerry eventually found her way to Denmark and into healthcare administration. Since then, she's been the glue that keeps Denmark Family Practice running smoothly and the person the rest of us rely on every single day.

And her newest (and favourite) role? Grandmother! 💕 Little Evie has completely stolen her heart, and we're pretty sure she's become Kerry's most treasured achievement yet.

Please join us in thanking Kerry for everything she does for our staff, patients and community. We are incredibly lucky to have her
