| MEDICAL and EMERGENCY
There is a walk in Medical Centre situated next to Walmart’s car park and 5 minutes further along ( turn right from Southern Dunes) you will find the main general hospital. The pharmacies are great and we have found the assistants to be very helpful and knowledgeable. Each house also has a direct link to the Fire Dept, Ambulance and Police Dept. on the alarm control panel.

| FIRE ANTS Being aware of your surroundings at all times is the way to avoid everything from car wrecks to rattlesnake bites. If fire ants do crawl onto your skin, they first bite with their mandibles in order to anchor for the thrust of the sting. As soon as you feel this pinching sensation, quickly sweep the ants off before they actually sting and you can avoid most of the damage! For a bite remedy Peppermint essential oil works very well. If you apply it immediately after being bitten it dramatically lessons the pain and shortens the entire infection process. Those nights that you wake up in agony, rub a small amount on the affected areas and after a few minutes the pain subsides. You can purchase essential oils at most health food stores and a lot of grocery stores carry these products as well. |
