18 The Clarington/Courtice Independent, Bowmanville, Saturday, August 17, 1996 by Paddy Pateman Most people don't link moving moving with their personal health, at least not unless they're concerned concerned about pulling, twisting or straining a muscle or two in an effort to move the odd heavy household item that should probably be left in the hands of professionals who move people for a living anyway. anyway. But, according to Allied Van Lines President Mike Mason, Mason, family and personal health should be right up there at the top of the agenda, largely because because a major event like a family family move tends to push other important items off to the side, where they're' sometimes forgotten. forgotten. To get a better idea of the more important family and individual individual health issues that might get temporarily shunted aside during a move, Allied suggests taking a few minutes to look over the following guidelines that professional health educators recommend everyone involved in a household household move should look at before, before, during, and after the event. Vaccinations All children in Canada arc required required to be vaccinated against a specific array of diseases, and these immunizations, most of which are for infants and young children, arc tied to a very definite lime schedule. They do not provide the maximum maximum level of protection unless they arc given according to this schedule, so a visit to your family doctor or pediatrician is definitely recommended, once you know a move is going to take place. Medications Canadians arc a nation of savers, particularly when it comes to prescription and over-the-counter medications. A move is an excellent lime to clean out the medicine chest, and to dispose of any prescription prescription medications that arc out of date (i.e., by flushing down the toilet). Saving such medications medications for possible use if a similar similar health problem arises in the future, or because some other family members might need them if they get ill, is a foolhardy foolhardy and potentially deadly thing to do. As a general rule, over-the- counter medications like headache headache remedies and those for upset stomachs and other common common ailments, should be discarded discarded before they're a year old, particularly if they haven't been stored properly. Medications Medications do lose their potency over a period of lime, and may not work as well as indicated if kept too long. Generally, they're also inexpensive enough to permit easy replacement, replacement, once you arrive at your new home. These common medications should be disposed of as carefully carefully as outdated prescription medications.
