Mark down this date - Wednesday November 28th - for a Blood Pressure/Blood Sugar Clinic at the Library during Soups On.
Community Paramedic Georgia Nelson will be available from 11:15 (if the ferry is on time) to 12:45 (to give her time for a bowl of soup before taking the 1:10 ferry back to Chemainus). Several people have already expressed a wish to be on the Visiting Community Paramedic list and this is a great opportunity to discuss the program and how wellness checks and health education could benefit you.
This clinic is our “foot in the door” to get regular visits by a community paramedic at your home. Heart conditions, diabetes, blood pressure issues, cancer patients, post-operative, Parkinson’s, respiratory issues, stroke patients, etc. - all could benefit from this free service.
Come in and have a word with Georgia on November 28th and she will be more able to get the full program rolled out on our island if she hears there is a need.
And of course, take advantage of Soups On…a terrific lunch for just $5.00.
