About
Nicole is our Health Coach and her role here at Browns Bay Medical Centre, is to guide and empower adults 18 years and over to work towards their own health and well-being. Nicole works together with patients to help to support them to understand and manage their long-term conditions, including but not limited to diabetes, high cholesterol, gout, sleep, asthma, and smoking cessation.
Nicole works closely with our Health Improvement Practitioner and other members of our general practice team to support our enrolled patients to meet their health and wellbeing needs.
Consultations with Nicole take 20-30 minutes and are fully funded, so there is no charge for our patients. Consults provide an opportunity to gain skills and knowledge to be able to act in small ways toward self-managed wellbeing, week by week, through: healthy eating, undertaking physical activity, taking medications as prescribed and stress management. Patients go away with a simple action plan to start making small steps to healthy changes.
Nicole works Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Please book via our receptionist.
