Maternity care | Preparing for your baby’s arrival

Preparing for a baby brings excitement, questions and plenty to think about.
Alongside preparing the nursery and packing the hospital bag, understanding your
maternity care and birth plan can help you feel more informed as the big day
approaches.

Talk openly with your healthcare provider about your pregnancy, any concerns you
may have, what to expect during admission and the support available to you and
your baby.

At Crestcare Malmesbury, our maternity team is here to support mothers and
families through this important chapter.

Speak to your healthcare provider about preparing for your birth and maternity
journey.

Surgical safety | Behind the theatre doors

Long before a procedure begins, patient safety is already in motion.

Behind the theatre doors, doctors, nurses, Anaesthetists and theatre teamwork
together through carefully coordinated processes designed to support safe surgical
care.

From confirming patient and procedure details to equipment preparation, infection
prevention and clinical safety checks, every member of the team has an important
role.

It is a side of surgery patients may not always see, but teamwork behind the scenes
is an essential part of every surgical journey.

Follow Crestcare Malmesbury for more insight into the people and processes behind your care.

Sepsis | Know the warning signs

Sepsis is a serious medical emergency that can occur when the body has an
extreme response to an infection.

It can progress quickly, which is why recognising concerning changes and seeking
urgent medical attention matters.

Warning signs may include confusion or unusual drowsiness, difficulty breathing, a
very high or low temperature, rapid heartbeat, severe discomfort or a person
becoming suddenly very unwell.

Sepsis requires urgent medical assessment.

If someone appears seriously ill or deteriorates rapidly during an infection, seek
urgent medical care.

Paediatric care | When your child isn’t quite themselves

Parents and caregivers often know when something simply is not right.

A change in energy, appetite or behaviour, a persistent fever, unusual pain or
symptoms that are not improving can all be reasons to seek medical advice.

Children may not always be able to explain exactly how they are feeling, which
makes observation especially important.

You know your child. If a change concerns you or symptoms persist, asking a
healthcare professional for guidance is always appropriate.

At Crestcare Malmesbury, our healthcare teams are here to support families when
they need care.

Speak to your healthcare provider if you are concerned about a persistent or
unexplained change in your child’s health.

Spring allergies | Cold or allergies?

Sneezing, a runny nose and itchy eyes arrive with spring for many of us. But how do
you know whether it is allergies or a cold?

Spring allergies commonly cause sneezing, an itchy or runny nose and itchy or
watery eyes. A cold may include similar symptoms but can also leave you feeling
generally unwell.

Symptoms can differ from person to person, so avoid self-diagnosing when
something does not feel right.

Persistent symptoms, breathing difficulties or symptoms that are getting worse
should be assessed by a healthcare professional.

If seasonal symptoms are affecting your everyday life or you are concerned about
how you feel, speak to your healthcare provider.

Pharmacy Month | Medication safety

Taking medication safely is an important part of looking after your health.

Simple habits can make a difference:

1. Take medication exactly as prescribed.
2. Check expiry dates regularly.
3. Never share prescription medication with someone else.
4. Tell your healthcare provider about all medication and supplements you are
taking.
5. Keep an up-to-date medication list, particularly if you take several medicines.

Your pharmacist is also an important part of your healthcare team and can help
you understand how and when to take your medication safely.

If you are unsure about your medication, speak to your pharmacist or healthcare
provider before making any changes.
