At Macintyre Health, we are inspired by those who choose to live in Rural Queensland - the resilience, tenacity and sense of community that is inherent here. We are also inspired by the technology and innovation that has revolutionised Diabetes Management and how easily people are now able to live their day-to-day lives. Today we live at a moment where the majority of people have access to the int

ernet or mobile phones - the raw tools necessary to engage in possibilities such as Telehealth, Insulin Pump Therapy and Continuous/Flash Glucose Monitoring (among others). Macintyre Health also recognises that personal relationships are fundamental to successful Chronic Disease Management and Integration of Care. Often, we find, that someone will care more about their own management when they become aware, and believe, that we deeply do as well. At Macintyre Health, we provide education tailored to each person's needs - both clinical and personal. There is no stock-standard way to manage every person with Diabetes, and a tailored approach is key to success. When you become a patient of Macintyre Health, you will know that you have a partner, an ally, someone who will respect your wishes without judgement. Even if our mission sounds big, it starts small - and it starts in Goondiwindi.

Last week our team stood in front of the Senate Committee and put words to what rural communities have been living for years.

Laura, Cassandra and Kai presented Submission 114 - our Rural Stress Testing Framework - built on the voices of 214 rural and remote Australians who trusted us with their stories.
The message was simple: rural communities aren't broken versions of the city. They're structurally different, and policy needs to be tested for the conditions people actually live under. Before it lands, not after.

We're proud of what our team put forward, and even prouder of everyone who shared their experience to make it possible. This is your evidence. This is your voice being carried into the room. Thank you.

If you or someone you know takes a GLP-1 medicine like Ozempic, Wegovy, Trulicity, Mounjaro or Saxenda, there's an important safety update to be aware of.

The TGA has flagged a rare eye condition linked to this medicine class that can cause sudden vision loss. It's uncommon, but knowing the warning signs matters.

We've broken down what it means and what to watch for on our website - have a read and share it with anyone who might need to know: www.macintyrehealth.com.au/tga-safety-update-on-glp-1-ra-medicines-rare-eye-condition/

Low carb doesn't have to be all or nothing! 🥑

Sometimes it's just easier to have a low carb lunch during the week and enjoy your favourite pasta on the weekend - and that's completely okay. Diabetes management is personal, and it's about what works for you.

We have some easy breakfast, lunch and dinner ideas over on the blog - read the full list here: www.macintyrehealth.com.au/low-carb-meal-ideas-for-diabetes/

Have you seen the recent reporting in the media on diabetes technology safety? 👀 We wanted to share some important context to sit alongside it.

No treatment is completely risk-free, and it's important that reporting reflects the full picture - including the real, life-changing benefits these technologies provide for so many people.

If you have any concerns about your own device, talk to your healthcare team, or reach out to us - we're always here. 💙

Thank you to the wonderful diabetes community members and organisations who are also talking about this on Instagram .daily.dose . Please mention anyone else who has shared their story in the comments below!

Continuous Glucose Monitors have changed the game for diabetes management - but knowing what's actually subsidised (and what isn't) can be confusing.

Swipe through for the plain-English version: who's eligible, what "fully subsidised" actually means, and the gap that still exists for people with type 2 diabetes.

The best part? You don't need a GP referral or a long drive to get started - Macintyre Health can certify CGM eligibility directly, and we offer telehealth too.

Access to care shouldn't depend on your postcode - and that's exactly what this new partnership between Diabetes Australia and Deadly Vision Centre is tackling in the Northern Territory. What stands out to us is the model: care that's Aboriginal-led, culturally safe, and built on trust within community. That's what makes people actually show up for follow-up appointments, not just the first check-up. Wonderful to see this kind of investment in rural and remote health. 👏
