@TobyRichardsUWA @KarinCalford @APNAnurses @CHFofAustralia @CapitalHealthNw @1HealthPathways @KarinCalford Hi Karin, we find it useful to share our iron resources and education tools on our research Facebook page, where patients re-share the content into iron help forums for others to see and discuss and generally gets a great reach from this
