Today we honor the fathers, father figures, and caregivers who show up with strength, guidance, and love every day.

At IEP, we recognize the vital role men play in their families and communities, and we celebrate you today and always.

From all of us, we wish you a safe, healthy, and restful Father’s Day.

In June, We Wear Blue. When was the last time you checked in on your health?

Today, we’re wearing blue to raise awareness for Men’s Health Month and encourage the men in our lives to make their health a priority.

As anyone will tell you, care doesn’t happen alone. At IEP, we believe care takes a community and support. Men’s health is strengthened through support systems — partners, families, caregivers, friends, and communities that encourage wellness at every stage of life.

This Men’s Health Month, we recognize that healthcare is a partnership — because stronger connections lead to stronger health outcomes and healthier communities.

To learn more about how to support the men in your life, visit www.menshealth.org.

Our very own, Dr. Jacob Sinkoff recently stopped by the JTV morning show to share important reminders about staying hydrated, recognizing the signs of dehydration, and protecting yourself and your family during the summer heat.
From graduations and outdoor events to workouts and long days outside, it’s easy to fall behind on fluids before you even realize it.

At IEP, we’re committed to helping our communities stay informed, prepared, and healthy all season long.

Watch the interview here https://youtu.be/l_aV6yt0jFs?si=TKA8ijZ92YLMKeHP for helpful tips on preventing heat exhaustion and knowing when it’s time to seek care.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
