Susan and Yvonne were nominated for the City of Pa

Susan and Yvonne were nominated for the City of Parramatta Council Community Group Award.

It was an absolute honour to be in the same room as many of the award recipients and nominees. The tremendous and heartfelt work put in to help the community is such an inspiration.

Listening to Ben Farinazzo, the Australia Day ambassador for the City of Parramatta share his story of struggle, resilience and courage was truly inspirational and moving.

Congratulations to the new Australian citizens at the ceremony today.

Today is where we reflect on what we can do to help make Australia a better place and take care of one another.

We’ll be back tomorrow from 9am. See you soon!

Happy birthday to our pharmacist Susan 🥳

She’s reached a milestone birthday that is fabulous and fun! Wishing her a birthday year that’s just that! Keep smiling and shining as you do 💕.

misplaced or mixed up
⭐️ Hand sanitiser

What are the differences between surgical masks, N95, KN95 and P2?

Let's break it down.

1. Surgical masks:
Surgical masks are a barrier to fluid that are considered large particles eg. splashes, sprays, droplets, and saliva. If fitted properly, it can help stop large particles containing viruses/bacteria from reaching your mouth and nose. It also reduces the risk of your respiratory secretions reaching others when you talk, sneeze, cough, sing and laugh.

The limitation of the surgical masks lies in its ability to block out airborne particles. This is important if you are in crowded and enclosed areas.

2. N95, P2 and KN95:
These masks are also called respirators and filter out at least 95% of the challenge aerosol. They form a tight seal around the face and contain fibres that catch and trap small airborne particles. They may be difficult to breathe in if you have a heart or lung condition.

The Omircon virus is airborne in nature and therefore, the N95/Kn95/p2 masks are more effective. However, if you have a heart or lung condition or find it difficult to breathe when wearing these masks, it is important to wear a surgical mask that fits properly.

All of these masks are single use, must be discarded if damaged, wet or soiled and are only effective when worn correctly.

Timing is everything when it comes to rapid antige

Timing is everything when it comes to rapid antigen testing.

Rapid antigen tests best detect the virus particles in the ‘acute’ stage of the infection ie. JUST before you present with symptoms and in the week from when the symptoms appear.

If you are a close contact, it is important to monitor for symptoms and test immediately and a few days after (usually day 6 from exposure). The rapid antigen test will pick up more viral particles by this time if you have been infected.

Please remember to register your result if you test positive via your Service NSW app or go to:

https://www.service.nsw.gov.au/transaction/register-positive-rapid-antigen-test-result

We will update you when the rapid antigen kits are available in-store..

The simple answer is YES!

Whether you’re at home or travelling, it is important to have COVID-ready action plan prepared in case you become a close contact or COVID positive.

Here are some things you need to consider:

1. Contacts - GP, pharmacy, travel agent/provider, airline, consular services, insurance company, hospital
2. List of medications
3. Covid-ready kit containing medicines to manage COVID symptoms and items to slow to spread
4. A home care plan if you need someone to look after your loved ones while you are away
5. Information about the isolation rules for your destination and when you can return home
6. Isolation activities to help you maintain your mental and physical health
