Breast health awareness is a crucial aspect of women's overall well-being. Every year, millions of women worldwide are diagnosed with
breast cancer, making it one of the most common and potentially life-threatening diseases. However, with early detection and proactive
prevention measures, the impact of breast cancer can be significantly reduced. This blog article aims to raise awareness about breast
health, emphasise the importance of early detection, and highlight essential breast cancer prevention strategies.
The journey into parenthood is a momentous and life-changing experience for expectant mothers and their families. However, alongside the
joys of pregnancy and childbirth, there are significant challenges that can affect a woman's mental health during the perinatal period,
which encompasses pregnancy and the first year postpartum. Perinatal mental health issues are more common than many people realise, and they
can have a profound impact on the well-being of both the mother and the child. In this article, we will explore the challenges faced by
women during this vulnerable period and the various treatment options available to support their mental health.
Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman's reproductive years. Typically occurring between the ages of 45
and 55, menopause brings about significant hormonal changes, leading to various physical and emotional symptoms. While it is an inevitable
phase in a woman's life, managing menopause symptoms can make the transition smoother and allow women to embrace this new chapter with
confidence and vitality. In this article, we'll explore some effective strategies to help women feel their best during this
transformative time.
In today's fast-paced world, stress has become an almost inevitable part of our lives. Whether it's due to work pressures, family
responsibilities, financial concerns, or the constant bombardment of information through technology, stress can take a toll on both our
mental and physical well-being. However, it's essential to remember that managing stress is not only possible but crucial for leading a
balanced and healthy life. In this article, we'll explore ten simple and effective tips to help you manage stress and regain control of
your life.
The next "THRIVERS & SURVIVORS CANCER SUPPORT GROUP" will be held at the centre Friday 1st Sept at 10am.

Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) are a widespread global health concern that can affect anyone who engages in sexual activity. Despite
their prevalence, there is often a lack of awareness and understanding surrounding STIs, leading to increased rates of transmission and
potentially severe health consequences. In this article, we will delve into what STIs are, how they are transmitted, common symptoms,
available treatments, and most importantly, how to protect yourself and your partner from contracting these infections.
In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, women often find themselves putting the needs of others before their own. However, self-care is
not a luxury but a necessity for overall well-being. Taking the time to prioritise self-care can have a profound impact on physical health,
mental well-being, and overall happiness. In this article, we'll explore ten practical self-care tips that every woman can incorporate
into her daily routine to make herself a priority.
Women’s health and wellbeing are complex, encompassing not just physical, but also emotional, and at times, legal needs. Recognizing this
intricate web of issues, Goldfields Women’s Health Care Centre has embarked on an exciting new partnership. Teaming up with the Women’s
Legal Service WA (WLSWA) and Women’s Health and Family Services in Northbridge, the initiative aims to revolutionize the way services are delivered to women, particularly those affected by family and domestic violence.

The GWHCC would like to introduce you to our newest team member!
Hello Goldfields, my name is Kate Yates I am the new Regional Carers Coordinator, I will be supporting our Goldfields carers navigate The
Carer Gateway. Carer Gateway is an Australian Government program providing free services and support for carers.
Are you a carer? If you care for a family member or friend with a disability, a medical condition, mental illness, or who is frail due to
age, then you are a Carer. Please fell free to make an appt and we can talk about your caring role.
I am passionate and motivated about client advocacy. I have worked in health for 23 years; my nursing career guided me to Aged care where my
basic foundations and skill base began. Moving to Kalgoorlie & working at the hospital opened my eyes to culture & diversity. This
experience and exposure to the grand Goldfields has enriched my understanding and scope of what it is like to live in the Goldfields. After 8 years at the hospital, I took a left turn into complimentary health, studying an Advanced Diploma in Kinesiology and became Yoga teacher.
When I’m not at working you will find me with my Horse Mr DJ, we are currently working together to learn dressage. You will see me
practising yoga Yoga
