Having Surgery ?

Raewyn Richardson from

Having Surgery ?

Being prepared for surgery helps reduce the stress for you and your caregiver.

Lagans Pharmacy can help you…..
Your surgeon will need to know about any medicines you are taking to safety plan your procedure. We can give you an official copy of your medicines chart listing all of your medicines, the dose and directions.

Leaving hospital you will want to get home to rest. Ask the hospital staff to fax us your prescription - we can have it ready for you . Get your free medicine schedule from us to remind you when each medicine is to be taken.

Remember to eat well and drink fluids, prioritize rest. Your body needs lots of support to help repair.

We can help boost your recovery with quality supplements tailored especially for you. Take before and after surgery.

And we can check and change wound dressings, until you see your doctor.

Lagans Mobility

If you need extra support with showering, reaching items, toileting, getting dressed or getting around. We have items available for rent or sale to help make the road to recovery smoother and dignified.


Lagans Wellness

We also now have Art healing devices.

Pulsed Electric Magnetic Field (PEMF) device to deliver healing magnetic energy, used in Europe, also used by elite athletes and the racing industry to promote faster healing.

Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. Using increased atmospheric pressure and higher than normal doses of oxygen to boost health.

Both these devices may reduce pain and inflammation; and boost healing of wounds, grafts, muscles, bones, and much more. Call to make your appointment.

Here at Lagans we have many solutions to help your recovery.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
