FRHS.ORG 3 Kelly Driscoll, RN, MHA, FACHE President and CEO School has started, leaves are beginning to change color, the days are a bit shorter and pumpkin spice is available everywhere! It is finally fall, and the world reminds us that change can be beautiful. As the seasons change from one to the next, one constant remains: the importance of prioritizing your health and well-being. At Faith Regional Health Services, we remain committed to being your constant provider of exemplary care through all seasons. Prioritizing health in the cooler seasons Fall brings football, crisp morning air and visits to the pumpkin patch, but it also brings seasonal allergies and preparing for the colder months ahead. To enjoy the season to its fullest while keeping yourself and your loved ones healthy, here are a few tips and suggestions to consider. Boost your immunity. With flu season approaching, it is important to strengthen your immune system. Consider getting a flu shot along with eating a healthy, vitamin-rich diet and drinking enough water. Stay active. The crisp, cooler weather is perfect for being outdoors! Get outside by taking a walk or a bicycle ride (wear your helmets!) or trying a new outdoor activity. Staying active is key to maintaining your physical and mental health. Take care of your mental health. As winter approaches, it can also bring on feelings of sadness. Making time for activities you enjoy and staying connected with loved ones can help manage the “winter blues.” I hope that you embrace and enjoy the beauty of change and preparation this season represents. Faith Regional Health Services will be here to provide you with the services, support and care you need to keep your health and well-being a priority.
