We will be closed tomorrow, Friday Aug. 7, so I can take the day to help Avery move to college.

Family means everything to me and tomorrow is one of those milestones that comes with a lot of excitement, pride, and probably a few tears. I'm thankful that you all are like family to me as well and for the grace and understanding you give as I take the day away from the clinic. We will re-open Monday at 8 am with normal business hours and look forward to seeing you then.

☀️ Summer Safety Starts Here! ☀️

Longer days and warmer weather mean more time outside—but don't let the summer heat catch you off guard!

🌊 Stay Hydrated

- Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don't feel thirsty.
- Limit sugary drinks (soda, lemonade, energy drinks) and excessive caffeine, which can contribute to dehydration.

🧴 Protect Your Skin

- Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and reapply every 2 hours when outdoors (yes, even if it says it is waterproof or sweatproof!)
- Wear hats, sunglasses, and lightweight protective clothing.

🔥 Know the Signs of Heat Illness

Heat exhaustion symptoms can include:
- Heavy sweating
- Dizziness or headache
- Nausea
- Fast heart rate or breathing
- Weakness or muscle cramps
- Confusion

Move to a cool place, drink water, and seek medical attention if symptoms worsen or don't improve.

🚗 Never Leave Children or Pets in a Vehicle
Temperatures inside a parked car can become dangerous within minutes—even with the windows cracked.

🦟 Don't Forget Bug Protection
Use insect repellent and check for ticks after spending time outdoors.

👒 Plan Around the Heat
When possible, schedule outdoor activities during the morning or evening hours and take frequent breaks in the shade.

Stay safe, stay cool, and enjoy your summer! ☀️ If you have questions about heat-related illness, sun safety, or summer health concerns, our team is here to help. You can reach us at 785-677-3930.
