SCHOOL HEALTH

Ronnie Englard (RN) is employed by Whanake Youth in Stoke. I am at school every day, based in the sick bay near the office, (but prefer to call it the health clinic- be positive aye!)

I am here to help with adolescent health concerns like:

managing day-to-day illness and injury
providing access to health services
wellbeing coaching and advice
support with sexual health, mental health, nutrition, etc

I have a one-on-one chat with all Year 9s.

PLEASE EMAIL or phone IF YOU WOULD LIKE US TO CHECK-IN WITH A STUDENT
