We are pleased to announce that we have joined forces with one of Australia’s most trusted pharmaceutical groups, Blooms The Chemist.

Blooms The Chemist are a leading provider of pharmacy health services and share similar values and a similar geographical footprint to House with No Steps (now Aruma). This exciting mutually beneficial support partnership aims to enhance the overall health, wellbeing and quality of the people we support.

“Our partnership with Blooms The Chemist is a new initiative that makes a lot of sense. It’s about thinking differently and stepping outside our traditional comfort zone, to the benefit of those who we support”, said Andrew Richardson, CEO.

The partnership will offer our customers, families and employees access to a range of great benefits including:

  • Blooms Loyalty Program membership which includes 10% discount and a Blooms ID card;
  • A range of in-store HealthChecks including sleep apnoea, cholesterol tests, blood pressure and stroke risk assessments, diabetes monitoring and flu clinics;
  • Free Webster packing or Dose Administration Aids (DAA) to ensure medicinal compliance;
  • Free delivery of medications wherever possible;
  • Access to friendly professional advice and support.

Blooms The Chemist General Manager of Operations, Jason Blanchard said, “As a growing, community-driven retail pharmacy group that aims to be recognised as a leading provider of pharmacy health service, we are delighted to be partnering with House with No Steps (now Aruma) in making professional healthcare more accessible to those living with a disability”.

Feeling part of a community is integral to anyone’s wellbeing. Being recognised, welcomed and able to foster a trusting relationship with their local Blooms pharmacist is a fantastic benefit for the people we support.
