Maintaining a healthy mind and body

Living in Australia

You made it! You’re here. Your next step is most likely to make the most of your time here and get settled. We’ve developed a range of guides to help you settle into Australia which includes a number of topics such as banking, money, laws, health and safety, looking after your wellbeing and working in Australia, just to name a few.

Mental Health

Starting a new journey in a new country, while separated from family and friends, can cause feelings of loneliness, anxiety and isolation for some. Did you know that one in six people living in Australia are currently experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety or both.

Be Sun Smart

The Australian summer is like one big party where people long to soak up the sun in the great outdoors as the days grow longer. But if you spend a lot of time in the sun without adequate protection, you may develop heat exhaustion, dehydration and increase your risk of developing skin cancer.

Webinars

Each quarter, CBHS International Health tackles the topics you want to know more about with a series of webinars. You can watch them anytime on this page.

Safety in Australia

We understand moving to a new country can be both exciting and overwhelming, but when something goes wrong it can be hard to know where to turn for good advice and resources.
