The end of May closed out Mental Health Awareness Month, and our Wadena Clinic staff wore green on May 29 to show support and help remind others that mental health is just as important as physical health.

Clinic leadership also treated staff to a Mental Health Recharge Station with snacks, hair binders, face masks, coloring pages, motivational stickers, and more. It was a simple way to encourage our team to pause, recharge, and feel appreciated.

When every second counted, local first responders and Astera Health EMS answered the call.

After Andy was seriously injured in an accident, responders arrived to provide life-saving care. Seven years later, Andy connects with Tom and Chelsey, who both responded that day. For Chelsey, the moment was especially meaningful, she and Andy have known each other since high school.

Their story is a powerful reminder of why local EMS teams are so critical in life-saving situations and emergencies across our rural communities. Many rural EMS agencies face a lack of funding and support, and now is the time to help keep these essential services going.

Support Astera Health EMS by signing up for the Ambulance Pull during June Jubilee in Wadena. Proceeds go directly to the Astera Health EMS team.

Have you ever felt stuck in a pattern of negative thinking?

It can be tempting to tell yourself, “Everything will be OK,” and hope that fixes it. But real mental wellness often starts with more realistic thinking, learning how to notice unhelpful thoughts and respond to them in a healthier, more balanced way.

Join Cady Horning, LICSW, for our next Bite Size Conversation – Your Mental Health event as we talk through negative thought patterns, realistic thinking, and practical ways to support your mental health.
