🎃 Halloween is a time for costumes, sweet treats, and special moments with family and friends, but safety should always be part of the celebration.

At Legacy Community Health, we encourage parents and caregivers to take a few simple steps to help keep children safe while trick-or-treating:

🍬 Inspect Candy First: Wait until a trusted adult checks treats before eating them.

🔦 Stay Visible After Dark: Carry a flashlight or wear reflective gear so drivers can see you.

🚶 Use Safe Walking Routes: Stay on sidewalks, use crosswalks, and look both ways before crossing.

🎭 Choose Costumes That Fit Well: Avoid costumes that drag on the ground or block vision and movement.

👨‍👩‍👧 Trick-or-Treat with a Buddy: Young children should stay with an adult, and older kids should travel in a group.

By taking a few extra precautions, families can help ensure Halloween is both fun and safe.

Legacy Community Health wishes everyone a happy, healthy, and spooky Halloween! 🎃👻🧡

💙 Understanding your health shouldn’t be complicated.

When patients understand their health information, they're better equipped to make decisions, manage their care, and advocate for their well-being.

During Health Literacy Month, we're recognizing the importance of making health information accessible and understandable for everyone. Clear health information can help patients ask questions, understand their options, and feel more confident about their care.

At Legacy Community Health, we believe knowledge is an important part of quality healthcare. That's why we're dedicated to supporting patients with the information and guidance they need to take an active role in their health.

Legacy Community Health provides care for all, regardless of a patient’s ability to pay. The Federal 340B Drug Discount Program helps make this possible.

A federal change will require health centers like Legacy to pay full price upfront for certain medications and apply for a rebate later. This puts additional pressure on limited resources that support patient care.

Congress has an opportunity to protect this vital program by supporting the 340B Rebate Model Delay Act, allowing more time to consider comprehensive, bi-partisan reforms while preserving access to care.

Ask your member of Congress to support the 340B Rebate Model Delay Act and protect access to care in our communities.
