NHS Grampian has developed a Winter Wellness guide to help people across the region lead healthy lives throughout the coming months.
Head of health intelligence with NHS Grampian Jillian Evans said: “This guide isn’t just limited to the traditional health messages we want to share; it also reflects the current challenging times we find ourselves in and recognises that can have a major impact on people’s health as well.
“Prevention is always better than cure and we want to ensure everyone in Grampian has easy access to the information they need to stay well.”
Over 24 pages, the booklet – entitled Keep Warm, Safe, And Well This Winter’ - covers everything from healthy eating to dealing with the cost-of-living crisis.
Commenting Jillian said: “We know how challenging rising prices are for everyone, which is why the first section of this booklet highlights the sources of support available to people via the national Cost Of Living website.”
The guide will be available to anyone via the NHS Grampian Winter Support website.
These pages contain even more helpful information and advice, designed to keep everyone in Grampian warm, safe, and well.
Printed copies of the booklet will be distributed via Health And Social Care Partnerships and partner organisations, including CFINE.
People can also request a printed copy by calling the healthline on 08085 202030
Continuing Jillian said: “We hope the booklet will be a helpful resource for people, and something they can refer back to throughout the Winter period.
It includes many useful telephone numbers and a Know Who To Turn To guide, so people can be sure they are seeking healthcare support in the right place.
The guide is one part of NHS Grampian’s winter campaign, which sees the health board focused on keeping everyone in the region safe, happy, and healthy through the festive season and well into 2023.
