The Blood Tribe Department of Health and Blood Tribe Emergency Services would like to remind the community that a Fire Ban remains in effect for the Blood Reserve.

Due to the lack of snow, the ground is very dry, and winds can be unpredictable, creating dangerous conditions where fires can start and spread quickly.

• No open fires, burn barrels, or outdoor burning
• Please avoid any activity that could spark a fire

Let’s do our part to protect our community, homes, and loved ones.

For full details on the fire ban, visit btdh.ca and view the Fire Ban notice.

Thank you for helping keep everyone safe.

Taking care of your feet is an extremely important and essential part of managing diabetes. High blood sugar levels over time can damage your nerves and reduce blood flow, leading to serious complications that can start small but quickly escalate.

Diabetic foot ulcers are open sores or wounds that are slow to heal and are the most common reason for diabetes-related hospitalization. Untreated ulcers can become deeply infected.

Luckily, our Wound Care Program is here to help! If you need support in foot care, please contact the Levern Wound Care Program Nurse at 403-737-8610 extension 8772.

Also participants will receive a $200 Runner's Soul gift card for diabetic footwear, call and/or scan QR code for more details.
