💙🩶 November is National Diabetes Month.

Diagnosed diabetes cost the U.S. an estimated $412.9 billion in 2022, according to the American Diabetes Association. That includes $106.3 billion in indirect costs like missed workdays, lower productivity on the job and people who could no longer work.

The good news: type 2 diabetes can often be prevented or delayed with healthy habits. A few ways employers can help their teams lower their risk of type 2 diabetes:

🍎 Stock the break room with healthier snacks and water, not just vending machine sweets.

⏰ Make room for real lunch breaks, so employees aren't skipping meals and grabbing whatever is fast.

🚶 Encourage movement during the day, like walking meetings or stretch breaks.

🩺 Promote screenings and wellness checks. Type 2 diabetes and prediabetes can develop for years without obvious symptoms, and catching them early makes a difference.

💙🩶 Today is South Dakota's 137th Birthday!

Did you know? Before South Dakota officially became a state, 75 delegates gathered in Sioux Falls on July 4, 1889, to draft a state constitution. Voters approved it that October, paving the way for statehood on November 2.

Today, we celebrate 137 years of South Dakota history and the generations of people whose ideas, skills, hard work, and determination have helped build our communities.

At Propelled Professionals Inc., we're proud to contribute to South Dakota's future by supporting workforce development, occupational health, and opportunities that help businesses and people grow.

Let's celebrate the people who built our past, the workforce shaping our present, and the generations who will build our future! 💙🩶

💙🩶 Remember to fall back tonight!

Daylight saving time ends Sunday, November 1 at 2:00 a.m. Set your clocks back one hour before bed and enjoy the extra sleep.

The time change affects more than your morning:

🌙 Night shift crews work an extra hour Saturday night. Employers, make sure schedules and payroll reflect the actual hours worked.
🚗 Evening commutes get darker starting Monday. Slow down, use your headlights and watch for pedestrians.
😴 It also kicks off Drowsy Driving Prevention Week (November 1 to 7). Your body clock may need a few days to adjust, so put sleep first.
🔋 It's a good time to test smoke alarms and restock the first aid kit, at work and at home.

Propelled Professionals Inc. helps South Dakota employers keep their teams safe, healthy and ready for work. Call 605.554.3311 or visit PropelledPros.com.

Have a safe Halloween, and don't let preventable hazards come back to haunt your workplace! 👻

Costumes and Halloween décor can create real risks if they block exits, cause trips, create fire hazards, or interfere with safe work practices.

💀 Keep decorations out of walkways and exit routes. Never cover exit signs or obscure exit doors.

🔌 Check decorative lights and cords for damage. Don't overload extension cords.

🔥 Keep paper and fabric decorations away from heaters and other heat sources. Use battery-operated candles instead of open flames.

🦺 Make sure costumes don't interfere with required PPE, visibility, hearing, or safe movement. Avoid loose clothing near moving machinery.

At PPI, we believe workplace safety matters every day, even for spooky celebrations!

Happy Halloween! 🎃

💙🩶 Respiratory health matters at work, too.

Dust, fumes, chemicals, and other airborne hazards can affect workers’ lungs, sometimes with lasting consequences.

💡 Did you know? NIOSH identifies more than 300 workplace substances that can cause new-onset asthma or make existing asthma worse. These include common exposures such as cleaning products, mold, and wood dust.

Employers can help protect workers by:

🌬️ Improving ventilation and using appropriate dust or fume controls.
🔎 Identifying respiratory hazards before they cause harm.
🧪 Substituting less hazardous materials where possible.
🦺 Providing appropriate respiratory protection and training when needed.
📋 Teaching employees to recognize symptoms and report concerns promptly.

At PPI, we help businesses strengthen occupational health, workplace safety, and OSHA compliance through training and practical safety support.

This Respiratory Care Week, let's remember that protecting workers' lungs starts with understanding the hazards they face every day.

What does your workplace environment have to do with infection prevention?
More than you might think.

This year's International Infection Prevention Week theme looks at how infection prevention has evolved over generations. One of its 2026 messages is that the “environment of care” matters: the physical environment, infrastructure, air, water, cleanliness, and maintenance can all play a role in reducing opportunities for infection to spread. Having a few sanitizer bottles here and there helps, but it is not enough to prevent infection.

💡 Did you know? OSHA says respiratory viruses can spread in any workplace, not just healthcare settings. Employers can use hazard assessments to develop prevention plans that address the specific risks in their workplace.

A few things employers can review:

🌬️ Ventilation and air filtration
🧹 Cleaning and sanitation practices
🚻 High-touch areas and shared spaces
🧼 Handwashing supplies and hygiene practices
😷 PPE and other protective measures where appropriate
📋 Policies for responding to illness and workplace outbreaks

Infection prevention isn't only the responsibility of the healthcare industry. Every workplace has an environment and people who can become sick.

At PPI, we help businesses strengthen workplace health through occupational health services, employee wellness support, OSHA compliance assistance, training, screenings, and prevention programs.

This Infection Prevention Week, take a look at the environment your employees work in every day. What could be healthier? What could be safer?

An employee gets injured at work. Now what?

Physical therapy can be an important part of helping an injured worker regain strength, movement, and function and return to work safely. But ideally, the process starts before the injury happens.

💡 Did you know? In 2024, U.S. private-industry employers reported 568,150 cases involving days away from work because of sprains, strains, and tears. Another 479,480 involved falls, slips, or trips.

That is where workplace safety matters.

Employers can reduce injury risk by:

🔧 Identifying ergonomic hazards and physically demanding tasks.
🏋️ Using proper equipment and safe lifting practices.
📚 Training employees to recognize and report hazards and early symptoms.
🛠️ Correcting hazards before someone gets hurt.

And when an injury does happen, a thoughtful recovery and return-to-work process matters, too. NIOSH recommends working with healthcare providers, modifying duties when needed, and supporting employees as they recover.

At PPI, occupational health is about both sides of the equation: preventing injuries when possible and supporting healthier, safer workplaces for the people who keep them running. 💙🩶

🦠 Infection prevention has come a long way. What started with basic principles like clean hands and clean environments has evolved into workplace policies, training, ventilation, PPE, vaccination, hazard controls, and other layers of protection.

💡 Did you know? OSHA recommends using a layered approach to reduce workplace exposure to respiratory illnesses, with engineering and work-practice controls used alongside administrative measures and PPE. PPE is considered the last line of defense, not the only one.

For employers, that means looking beyond the question, “Do our employees have PPE?”

Also ask:
🧼 Are good hand and respiratory hygiene practices supported?
🌬️ Is ventilation or air filtration adequate for the workplace?
📋 Are there clear procedures for employees who become ill?
📚 Do employees know how to use protective equipment correctly?
👥 Are workers involved in identifying health and safety concerns?

At PPI, occupational health is about prevention, education, and creating healthier workplaces. We provide OSHA compliance assistance, employee health and wellness support, training, screenings, vaccinations, and other services designed to help businesses protect their workforce.

The goal hasn't changed across generations: protect people from preventable harm.

As Hispanic Heritage Month comes to a close, we’re reminded that Hispanic workers are an important part of the U.S. workforce, bringing their skills, experiences, and perspectives to virtually every industry and profession.

More than 33.9 million Hispanic or Latino people were employed in the United States in August 2026. That represents a significant part of the workforce, with Hispanic professionals making important contributions to science, engineering, entrepreneurship, healthcare, and countless other fields. 💙🩶

From science and engineering to business and innovation, Hispanic leaders such as Dr. Ellen Ochoa, the first Hispanic director of NASA’s Johnson Space Center; Dr. Franklin Chang-Díaz, a Costa Rican-born physicist, former NASA astronaut, and founder of Ad Astra Rocket Company; and Roberto Goizueta, a Cuban-born chemical engineer who became chairman and CEO of The Coca-Cola Company, have made lasting contributions to their fields.

At PPI, we’re proud to have people from Hispanic backgrounds among our team and the people we work with. We believe strong workplaces make room for different cultures, experiences, and perspectives.

A diverse workforce is a stronger workforce. 💙🩶

🩺 🚑 What helps a new nurse succeed in the emergency department?

💡 Did you know? ENA's Emergency Nurse Residency Program provides 42.5 continuing nursing education hours and includes ED-specific education, simulations, preceptor and coach training, and support for nurse educators.

That kind of structured development matters in a specialty where nurses need to make decisions quickly and recognize risk across a wide range of patients.

For workforce leaders, supporting emergency nurses can mean:

✅ Strong onboarding before expecting independence
✅ Experienced preceptors and mentors
✅ Ongoing clinical education
✅ Opportunities to develop leadership skills
✅ A workplace culture where asking questions is encouraged

At PPI, workforce development is about more than filling positions. It's about helping organizations build people and skills for the work ahead. Invest in your people, and you invest in your workforce.

Today, a special day within Emergency Nurses Week, we're celebrating emergency nurses and the education, experience, and dedication behind the care they provide. 💙🩶
