  • With heavy snow on the way, we want to remind our patients to stay safe! If you don’t have to go out, it’s best to stay indoors and keep warm. Roads and sidewalks may be icy, so if you must go outside, wear proper footwear with good traction and take slow, careful steps to avoid slips and falls. If you need to shovel, remember to take it easy, snow removal can be strenuous. Take frequent breaks, lift with your legs (not your back), and stay hydrated. If you have a heart condition or any health concerns, consider asking for help or taking it slow to avoid overexertion. Your health and safety are our priority! Stay warm, stay safe, and reach out if you need us.
