- Lyme disease is a bacterial infection that can be spread to humans by infected ticks. It's usually easier to treat if it's diagnosed early.
Symptoms of Lyme disease - Many people with early symptoms of Lyme disease develop a circular red skin rash around a tick bite.
The rash can appear up to 3 months after being bitten by a tick and usually lasts for several weeks. Most rashes appear within the first 4 weeks. ℹ️ VISIT http://bit.ly/lyme_disease_abhscp

A huge thank you to the Appin Agricultural Show committee for their generous donation of syringe driver bags to our Community Nursing and Macmillan teams based at Lorn and Islands Hospital 💙

The committee highlighted syringe driver bags in this year's handicraft section at the show before donating them to support patient care across our local communities.

We are incredibly grateful for this thoughtful contribution and the continued support from our communities. Thank you to everyone involved. 👏
