October Health Tips

October 2023 Health Tips

COVID-19 is surging again and flu season is back.
Prepare now with these quick tips:

1-Minute Tip: Wash your hands. You’ve heard it before and you’ll hear it again. This will always be the easiest one-minute tip you can follow to stay safe during cold and flu season – and during COVID-19 outbreaks.

5-Minute Tip: Replenish your mask supply. We may or may not see more mask mandates this fall and winter, but either way, it’s good to have a fresh supply on hand. Take five minutes and order some online right now.

15-Minute Tip: Review your schedule for the week and determine what activities or errands might put you in crowded (and higher risk) situations. If possible reschedule for times that aren’t as busy, or make sure you are fully prepared with a mask and hand sanitizer for those obligations you can’t postpone.

30-Minute Tip: Make an appointment for both your flu shot and updated COVID-19 booster. You can get both at the same time, so you’ll be in an out easily within 30 minutes!
