💙 November is National Diabetes Month! 💙

Did you know that type 1 diabetes can develop in children and teens? Knowing the warning signs is important. Watch for increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, and unusual fatigue.

If symptoms include vomiting, abdominal pain, deep or rapid breathing, or unusual sleepiness, seek emergency medical care, as these can be signs of a serious complication. Early recognition matters!

The holiday season is a time for giving, and we're once again proud to support SHIP (Student Homelessness Initiative Partnership) and their Homeless for the Holidays Hygiene Drive!

SHIP provides essential support to local students experiencing homelessness, and we're collecting new, full-size personal hygiene items to help meet their needs throughout the holiday season.

Donations can be dropped off at any of our Ped Center locations throughout December. Check out the flyer for a list of the most requested items.

Every donation, big or small, helps make a difference in the lives of local students. Thank you for helping us spread a little extra kindness and care in our community this holiday season! ❤️

🍂 Fall Back = A good time for a few safety checks around the home.

October is Fire Prevention Month, making this a great time to review fire safety with the whole family. When you turn your clocks back one hour, take a few extra minutes to:

🔥 Test your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors
🔋 Replace batteries if needed
☎️ Review with kids what to do in an emergency, including how to call 911 and knowing their full name and home address
🧯 Check that fire extinguishers are easily accessible
🔥 Have your chimney/fireplace inspected if you use one

A little extra time spent on safety now can make a big difference for your family! 💙

🎃 Halloween Safety Tips for Kids 🎃

Halloween is all about costumes, candy, and fun - but a few simple precautions can help keep little ghosts and goblins safe!

Stay visible: Choose bright or reflective costumes and add reflective tape or glow sticks when possible.

Bring a flashlight: Make sure kids can see where they’re walking and that drivers can see them.

Use sidewalks & crosswalks: Look both ways before crossing the street and stay together when possible.

Check costumes: Make sure costumes fit well and won’t cause trips or block vision.

Check the candy: Wait until you’re home to inspect treats, and don’t eat anything that looks opened or damaged.

Trick-or-treat together: Younger children should always have a trusted adult with them.

Watch for cars: Drivers may be distracted or have trouble seeing kids in dark costumes-stay alert around driveways and streets.

Have a safe, spooky, and fun Halloween! 🧡
