The Jeunesse products can also be purchased and applied at home. The range includes a skin cleanser, freshener, daily mois- turiser and a night cream. There is also a mask treatment and an airbrush foundation. Fully qualified beauticians are able to advise clients on treatments on offer, at Organ- ics Body treatments, and on the suitability of applications for in- dividual needs. The beauty salon opened last week, and is already proving to be very popular. Appointments for treatment is preferred, and necessary in the case of ear candling, reflex- ology and reiki, but call in if you are going past to see what is on offer, and discuss your needs with a qualified staff member. Pick up a brochure as well for information on the Jeunesse range. The salon is located at Shop 2, 34-38 Thompson Avenue in Cowes. It is open six days a week, from 9am-5pm week- days and 9am-4pm on Satur- days. Contact number is 5952 2297. A REQUEST to the State Minister for Health, Jill Hen- nessey, for Phillip Island to be considered for a Super- care Pharmacy (24 hour seven days a week) pilot program the government is undertaking for Victoria has fallen on deaf ears. Supercare Pharmacies are open 24/7 and provide round the clock access to pharma- cists, and supply of medicine and dispensing prescriptions. A free on site nurse service operates daily from 6pm to 10pm and provides face to face health advice and treat- ment for minor injuries and illness, wound management, flu and whooping cough im- munisations, health screening, sexual advice and referrals to other services. PIMHAG wrote the following letter to Ms Hennessey in Sep- tember requesting consider- ation be given to its inclusion in the pilot program. “As you know the people of Phillip Island have no access to bulk-billed After Hours (AH) care, except via Ambulance Victoria and the Bass Coast Health (BCH) Wonthaggi Hos- pital Emergency Department (ED). Whilst the local GPs pro- vide coverage until l0pm they charge a significant AH fee, which many find prohibitively expensive and they therefore access bulk-billed care at the Wonthaggi ED. This results in approximate- ly half of all presentations at the ED being classed as Tri- age Category 4s and 5s i.e. patients who could be ser- viced by a SuperCare Phar- macy or GP. Phillip Island and San Remo also lack access to a 24 hour pharmacy on the island, meaning that people have to travel to the Wonthaggi ED or to the Casey SuperClinic in Berwick (45 minutes and one hour l5 minutes travel time respectively), to access basic pharmaceuticals after hours. The need for improved 24/7 medical coverage was clearly identified in the Gippsland South Coast Service Plan July 2010 and has not diminished since then. Phillip Island would be an ideal place for a SuperCare Pharmacy trial, where it could serve our growing pop- ulation (Bass Coast growth 2.2% ABS Census 2015), ad- dress a significant level of socio-economic disadvantage (SEIFA score 977.5 and ser- vice the growing numbers of tourists visiting Victoria’s number one tourist attraction each year. By improving access to medical services on Phillip Island, a SuperCare Phar- macy would also reduce the numbers of Category 4 and 5 patients presenting to the Wonthaggi Emergency De- partment, ensuring that these specialised resources can be used optimally. Discussions with the CEO of Bass Coast Health, suggest that it would be possible to provide a telemedicine link between a SuperCare Phar- macy and the Wonthaggi ED to provide After Hours medi- cal treatment and support, and enable medication to be prescribed. Bass Coast Health has fur- ther indicated that it might be able to supplement the nursing hours not included in the pilot, to facilitate 24-hour coverage at a level that would meet our needs. A SuperCare pharmacy would be an ideal and cost- effective vehicle to provide the people of Phillip Island and San Remo with bulk- billed 24/7 medical care and 24-hour pharmacy and we therefore ask that you con- sider Phillip Island for a trial of the SuperCare pharmacy program.
