NOTE FROM THE EDITOR

Llanrumney forum is run by a group of volunteers, it is al-

ways looking for volunteers to help out with various things

that are done in its name. It could be working as a team

composing this magazine, it could be delivering this maga-

zine and it could be giving a Christmas dinner to the senior

citizens. There needs to be people in the community that

express a desire to improve our peoples and their lives ,

young or old.

If you feel that you would like to get involved

Please contact us at John Reynolds in Shaw close.

March 2015

Hopefully summer is now approaching and we can begin to for-

get about winter coughs and colds. However there are still plen-

ty of viral illnesses around. Just a reminder that most coughs,

colds and sore throats do not improve with antibiotics but just

need paracetamol, fluids and rest.

We have now finished giving flu vaccinations for this year and

will start again in October. However we have been surprised at

the poor response to the children nasal flu vaccine. This was

offered this year to 2, 3, and 4 year olds as well as children who

have illnesses that put them at risk from the complications of

flu . These same groups will be offered the vaccine, which is a

drop in each nostril, again this autumn and we would strongly

recommend that as many children as possible are given this pro-

tection.

As thoughts turn to holidays, we would like to remind you that

surgery offers a Travel Vaccine Service. If you are planning a

trip abroad and think you may need vaccinations , please phone

the surgery and leave your name and phone number and one of

the practice nurses will contact you. Most vaccines are

administered free of charge, however some of the more exotic

destinations may need vaccinations which are charged. The

nurse will explain this to you . It is important to have these vac-

cinations planned well in advance for them to be fully effective.

We would like to remind you that

Stop Smoking Wales still run weekly sessions at the

surgery . So far there has been a good success rate

amongst patients who have attended these sessions. If

you are considering giving up smoking just leave your

name and phone number at reception and yuou will be

contacted. DON’T FORGET.

5 CIGARETTES A DAY COST APPROX £600 PER YEAR

10 CIGARETTES A DAY COST APROX £1000 PER YEAR

20 CIGARETTES A DAY COST APROX £2000 PER YEAR

Finally it would be much appreciated if you could make

sure that the surgery has up to date phone number . It

could save a lot of time if we ere able to contact more

patients easily by phone.

Have a lovely summer, and don’t forget, this is a great

time of year to think about improved diet and exercise

The doctors and nurses are happy to help and give

advice which is suited to you.
