If you've been asking yourself where our beautiful arrangements around our campus came from, you can look no further than the amazing third grade class at FKES.

Thank you to these wonderful students for giving our patients, families and visitors a beautiful sight to see.

Staying hydrated is one of the simplest — and most important — ways to support your health during the warmer months. As temperatures rise, your body loses more fluids through sweat, which can increase the risk of dehydration, fatigue, headaches, dizziness, and heat-related illness.
Whether you’re working outdoors, exercising, traveling, or simply spending more time in the sun, make hydration a daily priority. Carry a reusable water bottle, drink water regularly throughout the day, and take breaks in cool or shaded areas when possible.
Remember: if you’re already feeling thirsty, your body may already be dehydrated. Small habits can make a big difference in helping you stay healthy, energized, and safe this summer. ☀️💙
