Bowel Scan is back again

We advise that our BowelCare kits will be on sale at participating pharmacies for two months commencing 1st April, 2017. Check with your local pharmacy or go to our website www.bowelcare.org.au for a listing of all participating pharmacies in your area.  This year’s BowelCare kit will cost only $15.00. This price includes pathology testing, with notification of your result to both yourself and your nominated doctor. Your result will be issued within 30 days of your test kit being received by pathology. Please use the pre-paid envelope provided within the kit package. Throughout Australia, Rotary has chosen to update to the latest technology to screen for occult blood using a Faecal Immunochemical Test (FIT). This test is very easy to use, and requires no dietary or medication restrictions. The kit is a two day sampling, requiring one sample from two different days. Full detailed instructions are included within the kit package. If you have any difficulty obtaining our BowelCare test kit, please phone the BowelCare office on (02) 4349 5555. We trust that you will continue to look after your health by participating in our annual Rotary BowelCare Program. Yours sincerely Rod Chippindale, Director Cancercare Australia Limited
