A mental health check-in doesn't need a journal, an app streak, or a perfect routine.

Once a week, ask yourself: How have I actually been sleeping? Eating? Feeling—really? Who have I talked to lately?

If the answers worry you two weeks in a row, that's a good signal to talk to someone.

Rainy season brings more than flooded streets—dengue and leptospirosis cases also tend to rise.

Watch for high fever lasting more than two days, severe body or joint pain, unusual bleeding or bruising, or fever after wading through floodwater. These need prompt medical evaluation, not just rest and paracetamol.

Avoid wading through floodwater when possible, and seek care early if symptoms appear.

Save this and seek care early if these signs appear.

You do not need to wait until things feel unbearable before reaching out.

Feeling persistently sad, anxious, exhausted, or disconnected for weeks is worth talking about—with a trusted person, and with a professional.

Asking for help is not weakness. It's one of the most practical things you can do for yourself.

If this is you right now, consider talking to a professional this week.

It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month—a good time to build a simple habit, not just repost a pink ribbon.

A monthly self-check is about noticing what's normal for you, so you can mention any change to a doctor early. It is not a replacement for a clinical exam or screening.

If you notice a new lump, change in size or shape, skin changes, or unusual discharge, have it checked—most changes are not cancer, but all deserve a proper look.

Pick one day a month and set a reminder to check.

Newborn screening is one of the simplest things you'll do for your baby—but the follow-through matters just as much.

Keep a copy of the result, know when the follow-up test is due if flagged, and bring the result to your baby's next pediatric visit.

A few minutes of organizing now can save a stressful search later.

Save this checklist for your next pediatric visit.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a good prompt to ask a harder question: what does your organization's women's health benefit actually cover, year-round?

Consider whether employees can easily access screening information, whether the benefit explains when and how often screening is recommended, and whether there's a clear pathway from a concern to a consultation to a referral if needed.

Awareness campaigns matter. But a benefit that's easy to use in March is worth more than a post in October.

Women's health deserves a year-round design, not a seasonal one.

Review your women's health benefit pathway this month.

Hours on a screen can leave your eyes tired, dry, or blurry—usually temporary and manageable with breaks, blinking more, and proper lighting.

But sudden vision changes, eye pain, flashes of light, or a curtain-like shadow in your vision need prompt attention, not a wait-and-see approach.

Know the difference, and don't ignore the second kind.

Alam mo ba kung anong gamot ang iniinom ni Nanay? Marami sa atin ang hindi sure.

Before the Undas rush or your next visit at home, take a few minutes to write down your parents' or older relatives' current medicines, allergies, ongoing conditions, and the clinic or doctor they usually see.

This small list can make a big difference if they ever need urgent care while you're not around.

Write down your parents/relatives medicine list this week.

Symptoms can change after a consultation. If something new appears, the condition worsens, or you are not improving as expected, do not assume the original advice still covers everything.

Review the instructions you received, seek follow-up guidance, and get urgent in-person care for severe or rapidly worsening symptoms.

Good care includes knowing when the plan needs to be reassessed.

Keep your consultation instructions and know how to seek follow-up.

After a bite, scratch, or saliva exposure to broken skin, wash the area immediately with soap and running water and seek prompt assessment at an Animal Bite Treatment Center or appropriate health facility.

Do not wait for symptoms or rely only on how the animal looks. Complete the care advised by the treating facility.

This needs timely in-person assessment—not an online-only consultation.

Seek prompt in-person assessment after a possible exposure.
