Happy Birthday to everyone celebrating in November! Hope your day is extra special! 🧁💛

A quick reminder for parents and guardians: New York State requires lead testing for all children at ages 1 and 2. Kids with lead exposure often don’t look sick, so a simple blood test is the only way to know — and the lower the result, the better.

Lead can affect growth and learning, but early testing helps keep little ones safe.

Visit www.cayugacounty.us/NHFL for more information and be sure to have your child tested.

As you turn your clocks back this weekend, don't forget to check your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms (CO), too! Daylight Saving Time is a great reminder to make checking your smoke alarms part of your routine at least twice a year.

🚨 Test your alarms to make sure they're working.
✅Replace any alarms that are not working or are 10 or more years old (check the expiration date on the back if the alarm).
🏠 Make sure both smoke and CO alarms are installed on every level of your home, and every room that someone sleeps in has a smoke alarm!

Don't know where to start? Let us take care of it for you! Alongside Auburn Fire Department, our Healthy Neighborhoods Program can test and replace all of your smoke and CO alarms as needed, FREE of cost.

Germs are tiny and may be lurking on your hands, even if they look clean!

Washing your hands with soap and water at key times throughout the day such as before eating helps keep you and those around you healthy!
