Hospitals and Healthcare
There are many challenges facing hospitals and healthcare in the modern world we are living in. I've created this curation collection to save articles that help me understand what modern health in society is.  The articles here are general in nature and placed here to promote discussion. We advise that you talk with your health professional before changing any of your medication or treatment options.  Any of the online courses listed here may (or may not) be open for access or enrolment. Most are free to browse, some may charge a small fee if you wish to receive a certificate or record of learning.   Every effort is made to ensure that these links are up to date and be aware that some of these articles may be behind a 'paywall'. If you can’t get into an article, email me and I may be able to assist.  Views are my own.

Springtime allergies: Hayfever and asthma

Springtime allergies: Hayfever and asthma | Hospitals and Healthcare | Scoop.it
Most of us look forward to the transition from the short, cold and wet winter days to longer, warmer spring and summer days. However, for many of us, spring and summer also bring on challenges as grasses and trees pollinate in the warmer weather, setting off allergies affecting our nose, eyes and lungs. Hayfever (allergic rhinitis or allergic rhinoconjunctivitis) is not just a nuisance, but can cause significant misery with constant sneezing, skin irritation, runny or blocked nose, and itchy red eyes. This can affect our work, study, and sleep.
