Community Paramedicine
Friday, November 16, 2018 at 10:07PM "Community paramedicine in BC is intended primarily for older patients living with chronic conditions such as heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and diabetes, or who are at risk of falls."
The great news is that as of this month, a Community Paramedic is being allowed to serve Thetis Island on a monthly or bi-weekly basis. Normally you must be referred for the service by your physician, but you can meet our Community Paramedic, Georgia Nelson, on Wednesday, November 28th at her Blood Pressure/Blood Glucose clinic at the Library during Soups On. You can speak with her directly about the program and get on her client list. We will assure your privacy when you get your BP or sugar test by allowing only one person at a time into the Library to see Georgia.
While you wait for your turn, have a great $5. lunch in the big room. Georgia will be available from 11:15 until 12:45 pm.
