Put Safety First This Summer

By Leigh Carpenter, RPh, Vice President of Pharmacy Operations

Published July 15, 2020

 

Summertime is all about being outdoors and having fun. Be sure to play it safe this summer by requesting free protective gear for your child with an inherited bleeding disorder.

Bicycle helmets can reduce the risk of a head injury for a child by up to 88 percent, according to Kaiser Permanente. This is critical for children with inherited bleeding disorders. Ask our pharmacy for protective gear to reduce the chances of serious bleeds while riding bicycles, skateboarding, inline skating, and other summer outdoor activities.

We offer helmets, as well as knee, elbow, and wrist pads for children with inherited bleeding disorders in the following sizes. Call us at 770-709-0124 to place an order.
