24 hour chemist in regional Victoria Mitchell shire
Why this petition matters

My name is Fallon and I’m a mother of two who lives in Kilmore . My daughter who is 4 years old and suffers from croup recently needed an after hours Telehealth appointment and the doctor prescribed pred mix for her which I needed to give her immediately, I had to drive all the way to craigeburn pharmacy to get her script filled . My petition is for a 24 hour pharmacy within Broadford, Kilmore, wandong ,wallan and surrounding towns , I’m sure im not the only parent who has had to the same thing at one time or another for there children or even a loved one . As the community in these areas grows bigger and more people move into these regional communities we need to think about weather we really need a 24 hour McDonald’s and a 24 hour servo in every town , what we need is better after hours medical treatments and services available in the regional locations easier for those from young parents to the elderly to access medications and supplies at all hours rather than during set times , the nearest 24 hour pharmacy is 35-40 minutes away and back again . I believe with a 24 hour pharmacy all the above mentioned towns would benefit greatly. Places like a 24 hour pharmacy need government funding to operate around the clock and I’m hoping to get enough signatures for my voice , my concerns and the voices and concerns of the people in the community to be heard by Daniel Andrew’s
