🌍 Happy Earth Day! 🌍

Today, let's celebrate the planet we call home! Here are some tips to promote your personal health while also caring for the health of our Earth.

🚲 Reduce your carbon footprint and stay active by biking to work or school. It's a win-win for you and the planet.

🌱 Embrace locally grown, in-season foods. By choosing local, you're supporting nearby farmers and reducing the environmental impact of long-distance food transportation.

🌳 Reconnect with nature! Whether it's hiking, gardening or simply enjoying a picnic in the park, spending time outdoors is good for both your mind and body.
From healthy eating to staying active, if you’re looking to improve your health and well-being, there are a variety of free workshops available through Alberta PCNs. Visit ➡️ albertafindaprovider.ca/workshops/home for more information.

Caregiving can take many forms. It can look like helping a parent, supporting a partner, or caring for a child or family member. It’s often done quietly and over time, it can take a toll.

That’s why it’s important to check in with yourself and recognize the signs of burnout. Caregiver burnout is a state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion resulting from prolonged, chronic stress. Key symptoms include:

➡️Constant fatigue
➡️ Sleep disruptions
➡️ Irritability and hopelessness

You don’t have to carry it all on your own. Your PCN is here to support you and the people you care for.

From mental health support to connecting you with local programs and resources, your PCN can help you stay on top of your own health while you care for others. Visit cfpcn.ca to learn more.

Your wellness journey starts with something as simple as a conversation.

A Prescription to Get Active (RxTGA) begins by asking your healthcare provider for a prescription.

Your healthcare professional will review your health history, discuss your goals and determine if activity is appropriate. They can provide a written prescription that connects you with participating facilities for a variety of activities, online programs and more opportunities for activity in your community.

Clear guidance, and a practical FREE first step. If you would like support getting started, bring it up at your next visit.

Today, Tuesday, April 7 is World Health Day 🌍🩺

This year's theme, “Together for health. Stand with science”, celebrates the power of scientific collaboration to protect the health of people, animals, plants and the planet.

Research shows patients who have a continuous relationship with a family doctor and team are healthier, live longer and are hospitalized less.

Calgary Foothills PCN collaborative, team-based approach to primary care can help you achieve and maintain your health goals.
