April 21st- Health Event a Success!
Last Sunday, A special Health Seminar & Screening took place at the Islamic House of Wisdom.

The presentation highlighted: Stroke- Risks, signs and symptoms. In addition methods of immediate action and rehabilitation care were noted.

Following the presentation, several medical staff of Oakwood hospital were on the scene to do free screenings for diabetes, blood sugar and high blood pressure.
