Resources

PEM Friends has developed a number of resources to aid patients and their carers.

The resources comprise information sheets and spreadsheets as well as a number of audio and visual materials to enable patients to understand their condition and improve their self-advocacy and care.

We also have an active e-mail list and discussion group for members.

• My Story: a series of personal accounts

• Foods: a listing of foods to avoid and also to try. There is also a good soup recipe here

• Skin Care: a series of information leaflets on moisturisers, shampoo, soap, eyes and lips and toothpaste and mouthwash

• Health Journal: a resource for patients to keep track of their health details. The journal focuses on 5 sections: my details, appointments, medication, admissions, and daily record

• Members only: resources for members include discussion and e-mail lists
