National Diabetes Education Week - November 2–8, 2026

Knowledge Is Prevention. Education Is Empowerment. Healthier Communities Begin With Us.

During National Diabetes Education Week, Osage Nation Health System (ONHS) is raising awareness about diabetes prevention, early detection, and management, with a special focus on the health and well-being of Native American communities.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), American Indian and Alaska Native adults experience some of the highest rates of diagnosed diabetes in the United States.

Diabetes continues to disproportionately affect Native communities, making education, prevention, and access to quality healthcare critical to improving health outcomes.

*Small Steps Can Make a Big Difference!

-Know Your Numbers: Regular blood sugar screenings and A1C testing can help identify prediabetes and diabetes early.

-Make Healthier Food Choices: Balanced meals, nutritious foods, and reducing added sugars can help support blood sugar management.

-Stay Active: Walking, dancing, gardening, and other physical activities can help improve overall health.

-Know Your Family History: Understanding your risk factors can help you take preventive action.

-Take Charge of Your Health: Regular medical visits, medication management, and diabetes education can help prevent complications.

Stronger Native Communities. Healthier Future Generations.

The impact of diabetes in Native communities is significant, but it does not have to determine our future. By increasing awareness, improving access to care, and empowering individuals with the knowledge and resources to manage their health, we can work toward reducing diabetes-related health disparities.

At Osage Nation Health System, we are committed to improving health outcomes and ensuring our people have the resources, education, and support needed to live healthier lives.

🎃👻 Have a Safe & Spooktacular Halloween! 🦇🍬

Halloween is a time for costumes, candy, and fun! As families prepare for tonight’s festivities, the Osage Nation Health System encourages everyone to make safety a priority.

Whether you’re trick-or-treating, attending Halloween parties, or visiting haunted attractions, a few simple precautions can help keep everyone safe.

🧡 Keep these safety tips in mind:

🎃 Trick-or-Treat Safely: Accompany young children, stay in well-lit areas, and use flashlights or reflective accessories to stay visible.

🍬 Check the Candy: Remind children to wait until a parent or guardian has inspected their treats before eating them.

🧙 Choose Safe Costumes: Make sure costumes fit properly, allow clear vision, and don’t create tripping hazards.

👻 Prevent Accidents: Keep walkways clear and well-lit, and use battery-operated candles instead of open flames.

🐈‍⬛ Protect Your Pets: Keep pets indoors and away from Halloween candy, especially chocolate and products containing xylitol.

🚗 Watch for Little Ghosts and Goblins: Drivers should slow down, stay alert, and use extra caution in neighborhoods where children are trick-or-treating.

💜 Halloween should be full of treats, not trips to the emergency room!

From all of us at Osage Nation Health System, we wish you and your family a fun, happy, and SAFE Halloween! 🎃🧡

🦷 October is National Dental Hygiene Month! Celebrating Healthy Smiles and the Professionals Behind Them

Did you know that maintaining good oral health is about much more than having a healthy smile? Your oral health plays an important role in your overall health and well-being!

Each October, National Dental Hygiene Month raises awareness about the importance of preventive dental care, encourages healthy oral hygiene habits, and recognizes the dedicated dental hygienists who help patients maintain healthier teeth and gums.

At Osage Nation Health System (ONHS), we are proud to recognize two members of our Dental Department whose work contributes to healthier patients and stronger communities!

🌟 Employee Spotlight: Ciera Moses, RDH, BSDH, BS

Ciera joined ONHS in August 2023 and serves as a Registered Dental Hygienist. Her responsibilities include providing preventive dental care and educating patients on proper oral hygiene to support long-term dental health.

🌟 Employee Spotlight: Rebecca Jones, BS, RDH

Rebecca has served as a Registered Dental Hygienist with ONHS for 4½ years. Through preventive dental care and patient education, she helps individuals take important steps to maintain oral health and prevent dental disease.

💙 Why Is Dental Hygiene So Important?

Good oral hygiene does more than prevent cavities and bad breath. Research has demonstrated important connections between oral health and overall wellness.

🦷 Prevents Gum Disease: Regular brushing, flossing, and professional dental cleanings help prevent gingivitis and periodontal disease, which can lead to tooth loss if left untreated.

❤️ Supports Heart Health: Research has identified an association between periodontal disease and cardiovascular disease. Healthy gums are an important part of overall health.

🩺 Helps Manage Diabetes: Individuals with diabetes are at greater risk of developing gum disease, and untreated gum disease can make blood sugar more difficult to manage.

😁 Promotes Early Detection: Routine dental visits allow dental professionals to identify early signs of tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health concerns before they become more serious.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Encourages Lifelong Healthy Habits: Establishing good oral hygiene practices early in life helps children and adults maintain healthier teeth and gums as they age.

✨ Simple Steps Toward Better Oral Health
✔️ Brush twice daily with fluoride toothpaste.
✔️ Floss at least once a day.
✔️ Limit sugary foods and beverages.
✔️ Avoid to***co products.
✔️ Schedule regular dental examinations and professional cleanings.
✔️ Seek dental care if you experience bleeding gums, persistent bad breath, or tooth pain.

💙 Recognizing the Professionals Behind Healthy Smiles

Dental hygienists are essential members of the healthcare team. Beyond providing professional cleanings, they educate patients, identify potential oral health concerns, and help prevent dental disease through early intervention and individualized care.

This National Dental Hygiene Month, ONHS extends its appreciation to Rebecca Jones, Ciera Moses, and our entire Dental Department for their dedication to preventive care, patient education, and the health of the communities we serve.

Healthy Smiles. Healthy Families. Healthier Communities.
