La Trobe University Community Placement
Healthy Ky – free Health Screenings for the Community

"Healthy Ky: Bringing Heart and Health to Kyabram—Empowering Students, Engaging Communities, Just in Time for Christmas!”

This December (2^nd - 20^th ), La Trobe Nursing students are bringing the gift of health to Kyabram!

To help refine their skills and make a meaningful impact on the community students will be offering FREE health screening at an Allan St Pop Up Clinic and other outreach locations in Kyabram (2-20 December), Lockington (3 December), Rushworth (10 December) and Rochester (17 December).  

In partnership with Kyabram Community Learning Centre and Kyabram District Health Service, this initiative tackles the challenge of preparing university students for rural healthcare, where hands-on experience and community connections are often limited. It offers a unique opportunity for students to learn in real-world settings while helping improve healthcare access for residents of Kyabram and surrounding towns.

To encourage participation, everyone who takes a health screening at any one of the Healthy Ky pop-ups will go into the draw to win 1 of 3 $50 gift vouchers (terms and conditions apply).

Alongside free health screenings, the Allan St Pop-Up Clinic will offer free CPR training (uncertified) by St John's Ambulance (date TBC), a Nurse Practitioner to support with advice (date TBC), and other KCLC-led activities for all ages.

We invite local individuals, groups and organisations to support this initiative and join Healthy Ky in making this holiday season healthier for everyone. Together, let's give Kyabram the gift of good health and celebrate community spirit in action!
