The Rotary 4-Way Test
Created by Rotarian Herbert J Taylor in 1932 as a code of ethics for a failing company in post depression difficulties, it was adopted by Rotary International in 1943. The test has been translated into many languages and published in hundreds of ways reflecting the internationality of Rotary. In English it asks:

“Of the things we think, say or do:

1. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3. Will it build GOODWILL and better FRIENDSHIPS?
4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?”

How to improve your French…. Or one reason to do the Tour du Mont Blanc!!! A funny but interesting presentation by rotary member Elaine Bryant made the morning lighthearted and fun!! Elaine and Evan circumnavigated Mount Blanc walking recently. They shared some beautiful photos of a gorgeous part of the world and shared some of their gruelling feats and amusing stories. Elaine concluded the improvement in French was minimal but it was certainly a challenge and a wonderful feeling of success to make it to the end! We were amazed by their achievements!!

Registered Nurse, Hannah Thorn gave our members a very informative talk at our last meeting. She moved from Melbourne two years ago where she had been employed as an ICU nurse at the Austin and Alfred Hospitals, to take up a position at BRHS.
At present she has an exciting new job with the Gippsland Local Service Health Network. The network commenced 12 months ago with approximately 12 networks across Victoria. The aim is to get regional Hospitals to work together. Given staff shortages, one aim is to possibly get Hospitals to share services. It also aims to improve local initiatives in health services to better serve our community.

Lauren Brooks from Molemap Bairnsdale gave a very informative talk as our guest speaker recently. Lauren has been offering not only skin checks in the Nicholson Street, Health and Wellness Centre clinic, but more comprehensive skin monitoring, mapping and education since 2020.
She offers specialised skin cancer screening including full body photography and mole mapping with a Dermatologist look over all spots of concern.
In Australia, the UV index sits around 3 or above for most of the year in many parts of the country including during winter months. Around two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer in their lifetime . Prevention is best but early detection is essential as skin cancers are treatable in these early stages including the more serious melanomas .
