Let's make sure we all arrive alive to where we need to go by following these four simple and proven road safety actions:
- Make sure everyone has their seatbelts on
- Remove distractions and stay focused on driving
- Don’t get behind the wheel if you’ve been drinking or are tired
- Drive at a safe speed for the conditions
With severe and changeable weather forecast for across the country the following winter driving tips are equally important as well.
The only way we can reduce unnecessary road deaths and injuries is by working together to be safe, considerate and alert on the roads. If you spot dangerous driving behaviour or urgent but not life threatening driving incidents you can report it to the New Zealand Police by calling *555 for free from any mobile device.
Have a great long weekend!

Being prepared for surgery helps reduce the stress for you and your caregiver.
Lagans Pharmacy can help you…..
Your surgeon will need to know about any medicines you are taking to safety plan your procedure. We can give you an official copy of your medicines chart listing all of your medicines, the dose and directions.
Leaving hospital you will want to get home to rest. Ask the hospital staff to fax us your prescription - we can have it ready for you . Get your free medicine schedule from us to remind you when each medicine is to be taken.
Remember to eat well and drink fluids, prioritize rest. Your body needs lots of support to help repair.
We can help boost your recovery with quality supplements tailored especially for you. Take before and after surgery.
And we can check and change wound dressings, until you see your doctor.
Lagans Mobility
If you need extra support with showering, reaching items, toileting, getting dressed or getting around. We have items available for rent or sale to help make the road to recovery smoother and dignified.

Pulsed Electric Magnetic Field (PEMF) device to deliver healing magnetic energy, used in Europe, also used by elite athletes and the racing industry to promote faster healing.
Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Using increased atmospheric pressure and higher than normal doses of oxygen to boost health.
Both these devices may reduce pain and inflammation; and boost healing of wounds, grafts, muscles, bones, and much more. Call to make your appointment.
Here at Lagans we have many solutions to help your recovery.
Your help can provide free services to those who need us, now and in the future.
A gift in your Will is a simple way of supporting the Cancer Society Wellington.
