Welcome to the first blog of 2015. Well and truely back to work and the festive season already a distant memory! Hope it was a good one for you. As you are probably aware the emergency services are creaking under the strain of dealing with acute admissions. Please help them by making sure you are covering yourself against the flu by having a jab if you are risk. This is particularly important not only for those living with asthma, copd, diabetes, chronic heart failure, etc but also their carers. All you have to do is give us a ring to arrange for a convenient time.
