If you’re located in the Blacktown area and are enrolled in Medicare, consider Kildare Road Medical Centre for its comprehensive, patient-centered care. Here’s an in-depth look at why Kildare Road Medical Centre stands out as the preferred Blacktown medical centre for MyMedicare participants.

Who should get a skin cancer check?

Everyone should be getting their skin checked regularly.

However, what this means for everyone is going to vary. Some people will require more regular checks than others because some types of skin are more vulnerable to skin cancer.

In order to determine how frequently you should be getting a skin check, please speak to a doctor. It is also important to note that if you have noticed anything unusual in your skin recently – for example a crusty mole- then you should see a skin doctor immediately.

If you would like to speak to a doctor about this please book below:

If you’re an employer whose business includes outdoor work, then you should be encouraging your employees to get skin checks.

As an employer why should you do this?

While there is no explicit requirement to provide a skin cancer check to your workers, Safe Work NSW has a blog with tips on being skin cancer aware and it has a focus on self-management of risk and self-checks of skin:

https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/resource-library/blogs/blogs-accordions/keep-it-cool-this-summer

https://www.safework.nsw.gov.au/news/safework-media-releases/stay-safe-in-the-heat-top-tips-for-workers-and-bosses

However, employers or businesses or people who conduct a business do have a legal obligation under work health and safety laws to:

1. identify hazards in the workplace
2. assess the risk those hazards create
3. then eliminate or minimize them as much as possible.

If you are an employer who requires employees to work outdoors then skin cancer is an obvious risk. Whilst assessing and minimising that risk can be done by adopting strategies around time of work, sun protective clothing, sunscreen etc, monitoring is best done via a skin cancer check.

Our experience is that leaving skin cancer checks up to the individual is high risk as many individuals do not follow these checks up until a problem becomes evident.

Employers can arrange and implement these skin cancer checks relatively easily and cost effectively – especially when balanced against the cost of workers compensation premiums and cases.

Looking for another reason why you should take sun safety seriously?

Here’s another. According to Yale Medicine, the sun’s rays can potentially cause long term damage to the skin if we don’t protect ourselves properly.

The damage caused by the ultra violet light in the sun’s rays can cause wrinkling, pigmentation changes, loss of skin tone, redness and rough uneven skin texture.

If you don’t protect yourself out in the sun, you are going to end up with a higher chance of skin damage.
