From time to time, Malahide Lions organise a series of screening sessions for Diabetes, a potentially debilitating illness if left undetected.The Lions act as facilitators only. The testing is conducted by qualified nursing or medical personnel who carry out a simple blood test (involving a needle prick to the finger). In cases where a certain level of blood sugar is recorded, the participants will be referred to his / her own G.P.
The next Diabetes Screening Sessions shall be held today, Thursday, 30th September 2010 from 11am until 1pm at McCabes Pharmacy, Malahide and tomorrow, Friday, 1st October 2010 from 11am until 1pm at the Medical Hall.
All are encouraged to attend.
