🤷 Why is AMR a Major Concern? 🤷 The challenges of AMR are complex and multifaceted, but they are not insurmountable. A One Health response to AMR will help save millions of lives, preserve antimicrobials for generations and secure the future from drug-resistant pathogens. #AMRConcerns #HealthCrisis

🛡️ Guarding Against AMR 🛡️ Misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in humans, animals and plants are accelerating the development and spread of AMR worldwide. #GuardAgainstAMR #HealthProtection

🔬 What Are Antimicrobials? 🔬 Antimicrobials are agents used to prevent, control and treat infectious diseases in humans, animals and plants. They include antibiotics, fungicides, antiviral agents and parasiticides. Disinfectants, antiseptics, other pharmaceuticals and natural products may also have antimicrobial properties. #UnderstandingAMR #HealthAwareness

🌍 It's World AMR Awareness Week! 🌍 Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites no longer respond to antimicrobial agents. As a result of drug resistance, antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents become ineffective and infections become difficult or impossible to treat, increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death. #WorldAMRAwareness #GlobalHealth

Protecting Lives, One Dose at a Time It's as simple as one HPV vaccine dose. Protect lives and prevent cervical cancer. #OneDoseProtection #CervicalCancerPrevention

🌟 Taking Control of Your Health 🌟 Did you Know? Since July 1, 2022, women can self-collect cervical screening samples, offering control and choice like never before. #SelfCollection #EmpowerYourHealth

💡 The Three Types 💡 Did you know? There are three types of Spina Bifida: Occulta, Meningocele, and Myelomeningocele. #SpinaBifidaAwarenessMonth #SBAM2023

💕 Reach Out for Help 💕 When we face mental health challenges, we don’t have to face them alone. There is support out there to help you find what is right for you #MentalHealthMonth #MHAwareness #mentalhealthconversation #havetheconversation

💖 Supporting Indigenous Women 💖 Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women. If breast cancer is found early on, when it’s still small, it’s easier to treat. Finding and treating it early means that up to 9 out of 10 women will survive. #SupportingIndigenousWomen #BreastCancerAwareness

🧠 Impact on Brain Development 🧠 Spina Bifida affects not only the spine but also the brain. Commonly referred to as the “snowflake condition” of birth defects because no two cases are the same, Spina Bifida can range from mild to severe. The severity depends on everything from the size of the opening to the location on the spine. #SpinaBifidaAwarenessMonth #SBAM2023

This Mental Health Month we are encouraging everyone to have the conversation. How do you have the conversation? First start by making sure you trust who you are having the conversation with. Trust that they will listen. You don’t have to go too deep with how you are feeling, but maybe start with just answering honestly when they ask ‘how are you?’. Tell them if you are feeling a little down, stressed or anxious. Then let the conversation flow from there. If it doesn’t feel right, you don’t have to go too deep. And try someone else if they’re not the one. Always remember you can reach out for help if you need something confidential or more support. Head to mhcsa.org.au/need-help-now for more. Link: https://mhcsa.org.au/need-help-now/ #MentalHealthMonth #MHAwareness #mentalhealth #livedexp

🌸 Detect It Early, Survive It Strong 🌸 Breast cancer survival rates are improving, thanks to early detection. To detect breast cancer early, watch for these changes: lumps, size or shape changes, nipple variations, nipple discharge, skin changes, and persistent pain. #KnowTheSigns #earlydetection

💬 Join the Conversation 💬 Your voice matters in the Spina Bifida community. Let's foster discussions and understanding. #SpinaBifidaCommunity #ShareYourStory #SpinaBifidaAwarenessMonth #SBAM2023

It was just 35 years ago that polio paralyzed 350k children annually. We can’t let the past become our present or future. Together we can #EndPolio, but we need your support this #WorldPolioDay: endpol.io/give

We are talking about mental health now more than ever before. This year’s theme of ‘have the conversation’ encourages South Australians to talk about their own mental health and that of their community. Let’s use it as a time to share what is going on for ourselves or check in on someone we care about. And remember you don’t have to have the answer, head to the Mental Health Coalition of SA’s Need Help Now page to find out how you can get the support you need. https://mhcsa.org.au/need-help-now/ #MentalHealthMonth #MHAwareness #mentalhealth #livedexperience #mentalhealthconversation #havetheconversation

🤗 You Are Not Alone 🤗 If you're facing breast cancer, remember that you're not alone. Reach out for support. #YouAreNotAlone #SupportNetwork
