World Hospice/Palliative Care Day
Join us as we celebrate World Hospice and Palliative Care Day on October 12th it keeps accountability for prioritizing Palliative Care in the Health Industry. Palliative Care and Long-term care homes are two distinct forms of healthcare services, though they often overlap. Many long-term care homes have palliative care teams to ensure residents receive appropriate care as their needs change. It is crucial for enhancing the quality of life, and provides support to both patients, their families and also supports caregivers. It plays a key role in patients and families making informed decisions, ensuring the patient’s wishes, comfort and dignity during the transition.
Permanent Hair-Loss Solution
Natural-looking hair transplant results are possible today thanks to advancements in the procedure, with improvements including placing a few healthy hairs at a time and creating a more natural-looking hairline. Men and women are both good candidates for hair transplants, provided they have enough healthy hair on their scalp that can be transplanted and have the ability to grow hair on the thinning area of the scalp. Most transplants take between four and eight hours and only require anesthesia that numbs the scalp. Results can typically be seen between six and nine months after surgery, or sometimes 12 months.
