Pharmacy Daily | Asthma week support

Mediband will donate $1 from every online sale to Asthma Australia during Asthma Week, which is taking place 1-7 Sep. The week focuses on managing the condition, especially should the patient have an unexpected attack. Mediband director Michael Randall said the medical bands are proving popular with parents of very young children who attend day care and childcare. “The feedback from parents is that the medical bands give them a little more reassurance that their child will be instantly recognised as having asthma or any other condition for that matter when they are being cared for by someone else,” Randall said. The bands include an encrypted code which links to an online service, which is a secure database recording the wearer’s medical condition and history should they need emergency medical attention and be unfit to supply the information to first responders.
