HAVE YOUR SAY and HELP US TO CHANGE WOMEN'S LIVES

Let's keep the momentum going...

At the weekend Loretta Dignam called on the Irish Government to provide FREE HRT to women, no matter what age or stage of menopause she called on this to be included in the 2025 Budget which is due to be announced on October 1 2024.

On Monday, the Minister of Health responded saying that he will publish his plan for free HRT in the coming weeks. Result!

However, we want to ensure that his plan gets implemented in the next budget, not at some time in the future. Please help us by signing our petition, link below and please share https://lnkd.in/evAvGiuT

Sallyanne Brady and Loretta Dignam are collaborating to make Ireland the first country in the world to offer FREE HRT.

Thank you!

🌞 **Summer Ready, Despite the Weather!** 🌦️

Hello everyone! After a bit of a break, we're excited to reconnect with you. It might be cold and rainy outside, but that doesn't mean we can't get ready for a fabulous summer abroad or hopefully at home ☀️

At The Strand Pharmacy we're here to help you stay healthy and prepared for all your summer adventures. Whether it's stocking up on sunscreen, vitamins to boost your immune system, or remedies for those pesky seasonal allergies, we've got you covered.

Stop by and let us help you prepare for the sunshine, no matter what the weather looks like today. And remember, our team is always here to provide expert advice and support.

Stay healthy, stay happy, and let's get ready for summer together!

With great joy and gratitude, I would like to share some special news with you – I have been nominated for the prestigious "Women in Business" award in the Conventional Medicine category. This is a tremendous honor for me, not only as a confirmation of my passion and dedication to helping women navigate through the challenging period of menopause, but also as an opportunity to draw attention to important women's health issues.

Being part of this inspiring group of women who push boundaries in business and medicine every day is a true privilege for me. I would like to thank everyone who has supported me on this extraordinary journey – without your help, trust, and motivation, I would not be where I am today.

If you feel that my work has had a positive impact on your life or the lives of your loved ones, I would be immensely grateful for your support by voting for me. You can do so by visiting the following link: https://www.wib.ie/voting.php.

Voting is a simple way to show that the values I represent and the fight for a better tomorrow for all women matter. Together, we can make our voices heard louder.

I sincerely thank you for every vote and support. Regardless of the outcome, this nomination is a reminder to me that hard work and dedication are of great significance, and our shared journey towards improving the health and well-being of women is what matters most.

With gratitude
Iwona ❤️

Happy St Patrick’s Day ☘️

Thank you for your love 🫶

Prescriptions will be legally valid for up to 12 months under new rules. This means that:
- Prescribers can now write prescriptions for patients that are valid for up to 12 months (was 6).
- From September, patients can ask their pharmacists to extend prescriptions from 6 months to a maximum of 12 months, if they have a prescription dated March 1, 2024, or later.
Government is implementing this change following a recommendation from the expert taskforce I set up to support the expansion of the role of pharmacists. Will be doing much more to enhance the scope of practice of pharmacists in the coming months.

👂✨ Discover the Clear Path to Better Hearing with Microsuction Wax Removal! ✨👂

Hearing is a gift that connects us to the world in beautiful and essential ways. Yet, sometimes, earwax buildup can cloud this connection, leading to discomfort and reduced hearing quality. That’s where microsuction wax removal comes in – a safe, effective, and quick solution to clear your ears and restore your hearing clarity!

🔍 What is Microsuction Wax Removal?
Microsuction is a gentle and efficient earwax removal technique performed by healthcare professionals. Unlike traditional methods, microsuction uses a microscope to view the ear canal closely and a small suction device to precisely remove earwax without the need for water irrigation. This method is renowned for its comfort, safety, and effectiveness, making it the preferred choice for many.

🌟 Benefits of Microsuction:

• Safety First: Performed by skilled professionals, ensuring a safe procedure.
• Quick and Comfortable: Takes just a few minutes per ear, with minimal discomfort.
• Immediate Results: Hear the difference immediately after the procedure!
• No Mess: Since no water is used, it’s clean and hassle-free.

👂 Who Can Benefit?
Whether you’re experiencing discomfort, hearing loss, or just want to ensure your ears are clean and healthy, microsuction wax removal can benefit almost anyone. It’s particularly helpful for individuals with narrow ear canals, those prone to earwax buildup, or anyone who uses hearing aids.

📅 Book Your Appointment Today!
Don’t let earwax buildup keep you from experiencing the fullness of life’s sounds. Book your microsuction wax removal appointment with us today and step into a world of clearer hearing. Your ears will thank you!

💌 Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need more information about the procedure. Let’s embrace clearer hearing together!

ATTENTION TO ALL PARENTS WHO NEED TO TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT SANTA 🎅

Son: "Dad, I think I'm old enough now. Is there a Santa Claus?."

Dad: "Ok, I agree that your old enough. But before I tell you, I have a question for you. You see, the “truth” is a dangerous gift. Once you know something, you can't unknow it.
Once you know the truth about Santa Claus, you will never again understand and relate to him as you do now.
So my question is: Are you sure you want to know?"

Brief pause...

Son: "Yes, I want to know"

Dad: "Ok, I'll tell you: Yes there is a Santa Claus"

Son: "Really?"

Dad: Yes, really, but he's not an old man with a beard in a red suit. That's just what we tell kids. You see, kids are too young to understand the true nature of Santa Claus, so we explain it to them in a way that they can understand.

The truth about Santa Claus is that he's not a person at all; he's an idea.

Think of all those presents Santa gave you over the years.
I actually bought those myself.
I watched you open them.
And did it bother me that you didn't thank me?
Of course not!
In fact it gave me great pleasure.
You see, Santa Claus is THE IDEA OF GIVING FOR THE SAKE OF GIVING, without thought of thanks or acknowledgement.

When I saw that woman collapse on the subway last week and called for help, I knew that she'd never know that it was me that summoned the ambulance.
I was being Santa Claus when I did that."

Son: "Oh."

Dad: "So now that you know, you're part of it. You have to be Santa Claus too now. That means you can never tell a young kid the secret, and you have to help us select Santa presents for them, and most important, you have to look for opportunities to help people. Got it?"

Help each other this Christmas🎄🎅 and...be kind ❤💕
