Lloydspharmacy health action day
Lloydspharmacy in Aylesbury recently held a health
action day to raise awareness of first aid, diabetes, and heart disease.
A pharmacist provided advice for people with diabetes
and coeliac disease, including healthy diet information. Free samples
of gluten free foods and low sugar snacks were available. First aid demonstrations
by the St John Ambulance, covering resuscitation for adults, babies and
children were available, as well as advice on what do about cuts, burns
and choking.
The British Heart Foundation also supported the
event, providing information on the prevention of coronary heart disease
and advice on how to reduce risk by eating healthily. Foundation workers
also advised on living with heart disease, to ensure that those affected
understand how to manage the condition to maximise their quality of life.
