    Jan (community health worker)
  • Congratulations!! It is terrific, so much valuable information for both client & health professional. I run a very busy cardiac rehab program. We are always hunting for resources for clients & this provides so much.

    Carolyn (Cardiac Rehabilitation Co-Ordinator)

    Sarah (doctor)
