Lung cancer doesn't discriminate.

It's time to move beyond assumptions, replace judgment with compassion, and make sure everyone knows the importance of lung health.

Early detection can save lives!

Know your risk factors.

Talk with your healthcare provider about whether lung cancer screening is right for you.

Don't ignore symptoms such as a persistent cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, or unexplained weight loss.

Ask questions and advocate for your health.

You don't have to smoke to be at risk, and you shouldn't have to face lung cancer stigma to get support. Anyone with lungs can get lung cancer, regardless of whether they smoke or have ever smoked.

Let's spread awareness, encourage early detection, and show compassion to everyone affected by lung cancer.

An extra hour of sleep sounds great! Use the time change as a reminder to check a few things around your home, too:

🔋 Check smoke and carbon monoxide detector batteries.
💊 Review your medications and restock your first-aid kit if needed.
😴 Give yourself time to adjust to the change in your sleep schedule.

Wishing you a safe and healthy start to November!

October is Health Literacy Month!

Have you ever left a doctor's appointment unsure about something you were told? Or read health information that was difficult to understand? You're not alone!

Health literacy is about finding, understanding and using health information to make informed decisions for yourself and your family.

Remember, it's OK to ask questions! If something isn't clear, ask your healthcare provider to explain it in a different way.

Your health matters, and understanding your health is an important part of taking care of yourself!

Harvest season is a busy time on the farm, but don’t forget to take care of yourself!

Early mornings, late nights and long days can take a toll on your body and mind. Remember to take breaks, stay hydrated, eat well and make time for rest. Managing stress matters, too!

Your health matters just as much as the harvest.
