Lawtons Home HealthCare Fitting Service
Lawtons Home HealthCare fitting rooms offer customers the privacy required while being fitted for and trying on breast
forms, bras and bathing suits. Our certified fitters are sensitive to your needs and are pleased to accommodate you.
For many women who experience a mastectomy, a breast prosthesis (breast form) is a natural looking and comfortable way to
regain body symmetry. The shape of a woman's breast is as individual as the woman herself. Breast form designers have
created triangle, pear shaped, round, heart shaped, and teardrop shaped forms to correspond with the most common breast
shapes encountered. The materials they are made out of are comfortable to the wearer, and are held in place with a specially
designed bra with a pocket to hold it in place.
Your Lawtons Home HealthCare Consultant will expertly guide you in picking out the perfect shape and color, with the
features and accessories required to meet your lifestyle needs. Feel free to call your local Lawtons Home HealthCare location
for an appointment. (See back cover)

for You?

new box of test strips
As a person with diabetes, you can monitor how well your
condition is controlled by regularly testing your blood glucose
(blood sugar).
• I want an easy-to-handle system because I have
dexterity difficulties (such as arthritis)
All of the meters available from your PROfile® pharmacy are
accurate when used correctly. To narrow down your choice of
meters, consider which of the following features are most
important to you. Then, talk with your PROfile® Pharmacist to
find a meter that best meets your needs.
• I want a system that lets me make notes and manage
my results electronically
• I want a system that incorporates my insulin doses and
blood glucose meter
• I have Type 1 diabetes and want to be able to test for
blood ketones when needed
• I want a meter that has a large, easy to read display
• I want a small and discreet meter
• A fast test result is very important to me
Monitoring your blood glucose control is a valuable component
of your diabetes management plan. Your PROfile® Pharmacist
can help you select and use the meter that best meets your
needs, and can answer your questions about glucose testing
and diabetes management.
