🌿 Protect Yourself from Tick Bites This Summer! 🌿

Summer is a great time to enjoy the outdoors, but it's also peak tick season. Ticks can carry illnesses such as Lyme disease and other infections, making prevention more important than ever.

Here are a few simple ways to stay safe:
✅ Wear long sleeves and long pants when walking in wooded or grassy areas.
✅ Use an EPA-approved insect repellent containing DEET, picaridin, or IR3535.
✅ Stay on marked trails and avoid tall grass when possible.
✅ Check yourself, your children, and your pets for ticks after spending time outdoors.
✅ Shower within two hours of coming inside to help wash away unattached ticks.

Know the signs: If you develop a fever, fatigue, headache, muscle aches, or notice a rash after a tick bite, don't ignore it. Early treatment is important.

If you have concerns about a tick bite or are experiencing symptoms, our clinic is here to help. Your health matters, and we're committed to providing compassionate care for our community.

Stay safe, stay healthy, and enjoy your summer! ☀️💚

• Stay indoors in air-conditioned spaces whenever possible.
• If you must be outside, wear lightweight, loose-fitting, light-colored clothing.
• Avoid strenuous exercise and outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day (typically 10:00 AM–4:00 PM).
• Never leave children, older adults, or pets in a parked vehicle.
• Check on elderly neighbors, family members, and anyone without air conditioning.

⚠️ Know the warning signs: If you or someone else experiences confusion, dizziness, fainting, rapid pulse, or stops sweating despite the heat, seek emergency medical attention immediately.

At Faithful Servants Care Center, every week is a reminder of what compassion and community can accomplish together. ❤️

This week, we were blessed to provide care, encouragement, medications, education, and hope to uninsured individuals and families in our community who otherwise may have gone without healthcare.

We are especially grateful for our volunteers, donors, and supporters who make this mission possible. Because of you, patients are seen with dignity, kindness and respect, regardless of their ability to pay.

Please continue to keep our patients, staff and volunteers in your prayers as we work to serve those in need throughout our community.

Together, we are making a difference one patient, one family and one act of kindness at a time.
