LCW: Leading the future of unscheduled care的动态

A survey from Action on Smoking and Health (UK) has found that nearly three million people in Britain have successfully quit smoking with the aid of vapes in the last five years. This new insight reinforces the effectiveness of vaping in creating a viable pathway to assist smokers in transitioning to reduced-risk alternatives and providing a benefit to public health. ? The survey also highlights the need for great education around reduced-risk products, with half of adults in the UK believing that vaping is as harmful as smoking, when in reality, Public Health England estimates that it is 95% less harmful. ? It is statistics like these that demonstrate the value and importance of the work we do at Plxsur, especially during the month of Stoptober. We are aligned with NHS England during their Stoptober campaign and, as a responsible vaping company, we remain focused on educating consumers to have a better understanding of vaping and empowering them to make positive health choices. ?

We often think of advance directives as something for “later in life” or for people with terminal illnesses, but the truth is—life can change in an instant. Accidents and sudden health issues can happen to anyone, no matter your age or health status. Wouldn’t you want to ensure your wishes are respected, even in unexpected circumstances? Creating an advance healthcare directive isn’t about planning for the end—it’s about protecting your values and ensuring you receive the medical care you want, no matter what happens. It’s peace of mind for you and clarity for your family. Don’t wait for a crisis to start planning. #PlanForTheUnexpected #HealthcareWishes #Reminder #AdvanceDirectives #PeaceOfMind #YoungAndHealthy
