Continuous Glucose Monitor

Continuous Glucose Monitor (GCM)

A CGM is a small sensor worn on your skin that connects to your cellphone, allowing you to track your blood glucose levels in real time.

Wearing a CGM can be especially helpful for people with type 2 diabetes, as well as anyone wanting to better understand how different foods, activities, and daily habits affect their blood sugar. It helps identify what improves or worsens your readings, and also supports us in choosing the most effective medications based on how your glucose levels change throughout the day.

Each sensor lasts for 10 days and provides readings every few minutes. It also collects and summarises your data over this time, so we can review patterns together.

Cost: $100 for the full package of care. This includes:

A 30-minute in-person appointment to apply the sensor
Follow-up phone appointments to review your results
Discussion of medication or management plans if needed

If cost is a barrier, part funding may be available—we can talk this through at your appointment.

If you’re interested, feel free to book an appointment with Robin, and we can take it from there.

Nurse Phone Triage

To help patients access care more efficiently, our nurses provide telephone triage and clinical advice where appropriate. This service allows many health concerns to be assessed and managed without the need for a face-to-face appointment.

How it works

When you contact the practice, our reception team may arrange for a nurse to call you back. During this call, the nurse will assess your concerns, provide clinical advice, and determine whether an appointment with a GP or Nurse Practitioner is required.

Charges

A nurse triage call is a clinical service and may incur a fee when advice is provided or your concern is resolved without the need for an appointment.

Examples include:

  • Clinical advice provided over the phone

  • Management of a health concern without an appointment

  • Medical certificates issued following a nurse assessment

If an appointment is required following the nurse call, there won’t be an additional triage charge.

Funding Support

In some situations, funding may be available to cover the cost of nurse triage services. Where this applies, our nursing team will advise you during the call.

Why are there charges?

Our nurses provide professional clinical assessment and advice during triage calls. Charging for this service recognises the clinical time and expertise provided, even when an appointment is not required.

If you have any questions about nurse triage charges, please speak with our nursing team.
