@Heart's Anti-Coagulant Machine Project - changing lives
These blood testing machines (designed for home use) can be provided free of charge to @Heart members on anti-coagulant medication.
Prior to the Anti-Coagulant Machine Project, blood testing meant lengthy visits to a laboratory or hospital and blood taken from a needle inserted into the child's vein. For the children, the tests were frightening and traumatic.
With Anti-Coagulant machines, blood testing now means no pain, no tears, nor car trips. Parents and children can conduct the required blood test themselves, at home, with just one drop of blood taken from a finger prick. It's quite simply changing lives.
@Heart’s Anti-Coagulant Machine Project has been running for over ten years, increasing the quality of life of hundreds of children and families across the country.
SaveMart has been the main sponsor of @Heart’s Anti-Coagulant Machine Project since 2004.
