Today, on Mother's Day, we celebrate and thank the many people who provide maternal care, guidance, comfort and support in our communities.

To mothers, grandmothers, stepmothers, foster mums, adoptive mothers, aunties, carers and all maternal caregivers: thank you for the countless ways you nurture and nourish the people around you.

The care we receive through loving relationships can have a lifelong impact on health and wellbeing. Feeling safe, supported, encouraged and cared for helps children and adults alike to thrive: emotionally, physically and socially.

🌬️ World Asthma Day – 5 May 2026 🌬️

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory lung condition affecting over 2.8 million Australians and millions more worldwide. Tragically, most asthma-related deaths are preventable.

This year, the National Asthma Council Australia is highlighting the theme:
“Access to anti-inflammatory inhalers for everyone with asthma – still an urgent need.”

The updated Australian Asthma Handbook now recommends:
✅ Anti-inflammatory reliever (AIR) therapy for adults and adolescents
✅ Maintenance-and-reliever therapy (MART) instead of relying on short-acting relievers alone

These updates are helping to ensure safer, more effective asthma management for everyone.

💡 Tip from our clinic: If you or someone you care for has asthma, book a check up with your GP at least once a year, and talk to your GP about whether these updated treatments are right for you. Preventing flare-ups can save lives! And don't forget your annual Flu Vaccination - now is the time!

30/04/2026

Glebe Hill Family Practice is closed this Saturday

With a few of our GPs away, we won’t be open this Saturday.

Sorry for the inconvenience, and thanks for your understanding.
