Free Spot Checks & Melanoma Education – Hokitika

Our Nurse Educator will be providing FREE skin cancer spot checks and melanoma education in the carpark at Westland District Library on Thursday 14 August from 1 to 5pm.

This is a public event - all welcome.

This is a unique opportunity to receive a five-minute and non-invasive spot check* from a trained melanoma Nurse Educator and learn life-saving advice and information about melanoma.

*Please note that our Nurse Educator will check up to 3 spots. This is not a full body check, and a diagnosis is not provided. Regular full body skin checks by your GP, dermatologist, surgeon, or plastic surgeon are still recommended.

No appointment is necessary. However, as this is a public event, spot checks will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Sometimes demand for our free service is high, so please be aware that there can be a wait and if you cannot be seen on the day, you can book an online consultation with a Nurse Educator here.
