Managing Emergencies At Home

Public

Overview

​What constitutes as household emergencies and how do we manage them? Does applying condensed milk on a burn help? Will you heal faster by applying toothpaste on an insect bite? Have you ever faced an emergency at home and are at a loss? 

Join Family Physician, Dr S A Aziz Noordin, and Staff Nurse, Ms Low Wai Teng, as they explore ways to manage common household emergencies such as cuts, insect bites, or allergies, as well as how to prevent and manage falls among elderly.

This talk is brought to you by Our SilverCare Hub (Changi General Hospital) and Tampines Medicine Clinic in collaboration with National Library Board.
