Community Paramedics Home Visit Program

Wednesday, October 23  @ 1:00pm – BHCC Great Room

Hospital rooms are full of people who legitimately need medical attention, but don’t need to spend hours in the emergency ward.  There is a new alternative for people with chronic disease.  Working with patient’s physician, paramedics will make regular and special home visits to monitor chronic health issues, check vital signs and bloodwork, and help patients understand how to manage their health conditions.

Come out and learn more about this relatively new program and how to qualify for it.

What’s really happening with our waste these days, where does it all go, and what happens to our garbage when the landfill is at capacity in a few years?
