๐Ÿ’‰ Adult Immunizations Matter

As part of our National Immunization Week series โ€“ Day 2, weโ€™re focusing adulthood vaccines.

Did you know staying up to date on your vaccines isnโ€™t just for kids? As we get older, protection from some childhood vaccines can wear off โ€” and certain illnesses can be more serious in adulthood.

According to Alberta Health Services, adults may need:
โ€ข Tdap booster (tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis) every 10 years
โ€ข Annual flu shot
โ€ข COVID-19 vaccines (if eligible)
โ€ข Pneumococcal vaccine (65+ or high risk)
โ€ข HPV, Hepatitis B, MMR, and more depending on your age & history

Vaccines help protect you, your family, and your community from preventable diseases โค๏ธ

Not sure if youโ€™re up to date? Talk to your pharmacist or healthcare provider, or call Health Link at 811 to learn more.

Stay protected. Stay healthy.

This week, April 26 - May 2 is National Immunization Awareness Week!!

Over the next 4 days we will talk about some of the important vaccines.

Protecting your child starts early ๐Ÿ’‰๐Ÿ’™

As part of our National Immunization Week series โ€“ Day 1, weโ€™re focusing childhood vaccines.

In Alberta, routine childhood immunizations begin as early as 2 months of age and continue through childhood and the teen yearsโ€”helping protect against serious illnesses like measles, whooping cough, meningitis, and more.

Following the recommended schedule ensures your child gets the best possible protection at the right time, building strong immunity as they grow.

โœ”๏ธ Safe
โœ”๏ธ Effective
โœ”๏ธ Free for children in Alberta

Staying up to date doesnโ€™t just protect your childโ€”it helps protect your family and community too.

If your child has missed a vaccine, itโ€™s never too late to catch up.

๐Ÿ“ž Call Health Link at 811 or book with your local public health clinic to stay on schedule.

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ April 16 is Advance Care Planning Day

Have you thought about who would speak for you if you couldnโ€™t?

Advance Care Planning is about thinking ahead and sharing your wishes for future health careโ€”so your voice is heard, even if you canโ€™t speak for yourself.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Itโ€™s more than paperworkโ€”itโ€™s a conversation.

โœ”๏ธ Reflect on what matters most to you
โœ”๏ธ Choose someone you trust to make decisions on your behalf
โœ”๏ธ Talk to your loved ones about your wishes
โœ”๏ธ Document your preferences

Planning ahead helps reduce stress for your family and ensures your care aligns with your values.

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know? While most Canadians believe planning is important, only a small number have actually done it.

This April 16, start the conversation. Because your care should reflect YOU.

๐ŸŒน April is Rosacea Awareness Month ๐ŸŒน

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that often shows up as facial redness, visible blood vessels, and acne-like bumps. It affects millions of people worldwide โ€” including over 2โ€“3 million Canadians.

๐Ÿ’ก Did you know?
โ€ข Rosacea is often mistaken for acne, sunburn, or sensitive skin
โ€ข Symptoms can come and go โ€” and may worsen over time if untreated
โ€ข It most commonly develops between ages 30โ€“50, but can affect anyone

โš ๏ธ Common triggers include:
โ€ข Sun exposure โ˜€๏ธ
โ€ข Stress
โ€ข Hot or spicy foods
โ€ข Alcohol
โ€ข Temperature changes

โœจ The good news:
While thereโ€™s no cure, rosacea can be managed with the right treatment plan, skincare routine, and lifestyle adjustments.

๐Ÿ’ฌ This month is all about raising awareness, reducing stigma, and supporting those living with rosacea. If youโ€™re noticing persistent redness or irritation, speak with a healthcare professional โ€” youโ€™re not alone.
