🌍 World TB Day – March 24

Tuberculosis (TB) may feel like a disease of the past — but its history tells a powerful story that still matters today.

During times of war, including World War I and II, TB spread rapidly. Crowded living conditions, poor nutrition, and limited access to healthcare created the perfect environment for infection. At one point, TB was one of the leading causes of death worldwide, often called “consumption” because of how it slowly weakened the body.

While we’ve made incredible progress, TB has never fully disappeared.

🫁 What is TB?
TB is a bacterial infection that usually affects the lungs and spreads through the air when an infected person coughs or speaks.

👥 Who can get TB?
Anyone can get TB — but risk increases with close contact, weakened immune systems, and shared living environments.

🏥 Why are healthcare workers screened?
Healthcare workers are routinely screened for TB because:
• They are at higher risk of exposure
• Early detection protects vulnerable patients
• It helps prevent outbreaks in healthcare settings

Screening is not just about the individual — it’s about protecting entire communities.

🧪 Prevention & Testing
• TB is preventable and treatable
• Testing includes skin tests, blood tests, and chest X-rays
• Early treatment stops the spread

💙 Why this matters today
TB is still considered a global health concern, affecting millions each year. Awareness, early detection, and reducing stigma are key to ending it.

🧦 Let’s Talk Graduated Compression

At On The Go Nurse, we’re all about simple, supportive tools that help you stay comfortable and mobile — and graduated compression is one of them.

Graduated compression applies gentle pressure at the ankle that gradually decreases up the leg, helping encourage blood flow back toward the heart. This may help reduce:

✔️ Swelling (edema)
✔️ Leg heaviness
✔️ Fatigue
✔️ Aching or discomfort from long periods of sitting or standing

For those living with edema, compression can help move excess fluid out of the lower legs and ankles.
For individuals with neuropathy, compression may support circulation and help reduce that heavy, tired feeling in the legs — though proper fit and sensation checks are especially important.

Compression can also provide mild muscle support, making it helpful for busy days, travel, pregnancy, post-surgical recovery, or managing circulation concerns like varicose veins.

✨ Graduated compression may be helpful if you:

• Stand or sit for long hours
• Travel frequently
• Are pregnant
• Are recovering after surgery
• Experience swelling (edema)
• Have circulation concerns or neuropathy

📏 Proper sizing and compression level matter! In some cases, medical guidance or a prescription may be recommended — especially if you have neuropathy, diabetes, or significant swelling.

Have questions about compression, swelling, or foot health? I’m here to help — caring for you, right at home.

With Deep Gratitude — Thank You, Sarnia - Lambton

I am truly humbled and incredibly honoured to be recognized as a Top Foot Care, Home Support Services and Home Care Business in Sarnia-Lambton. This moment represents the trust, relationships, and community that have been built one visit, one conversation, and one client at a time.

As a nurse, an entrepreneur, and a local business owner, I started On The Go Nurse with one simple goal: to bring compassionate, personal, and accessible care directly into the homes and lives of the people in my community. I believe healthcare should feel human. It should feel safe. It should feel supportive. And most of all, it should feel personal.

To my clients — thank you for welcoming me into your homes and your lives.
To my friends and family — thank you for cheering me on every step of the way.
To my voters and supporters — thank you for believing in my vision.
To my community — thank you for allowing me to grow alongside you.

This recognition fuels my passion even more as I step into an exciting year of expansion and development in 2026. I am proud to be growing a community-based healthcare business rooted in trust, integrity, and meaningful relationships — and I can’t wait to bring even more services, support, and wellness opportunities to the people who inspire me every day.

This is only the beginning.
And I am so grateful you are on this journey with me.

With heartfelt thanks,
Blair Anderson, RPN. On The Go Nurse 🤍👣🏡

Winter boots keep you warm — but if they don’t fit properly, they can cause more harm than good!

Tight boots, thick socks, and cold weather can lead to:
🦶 Ingrown toenails
🧊 Poor circulation
🩹 Pressure points & blisters
🦠 Fungal infections
⚠️ Slow-healing wounds (especially for diabetics)

What to Look For This Winter:
✔ Boots with wide toe boxes (toes need room to wiggle!)
✔ No pressure on toenails when standing or walking
✔ Warm — but not tight — socks
✔ No numbness, tingling, or color changes in toes
✔ No redness, pain, or thickened nails

Winter Foot Care Tips:
✨ Trim nails straight across
✨ Keep feet clean and dry
✨ Moisturize heels (not between toes)
✨ Book regular professional foot care

Healthy boots + healthy feet = safer winter walking.

🤍 On The Go Nurse — keeping you comfortable, mobile, and confident all winter long.

❄️ Winter Skin Care for Hands & Feet ❄️
Cold weather, dry air, and indoor heat can cause cracked, painful skin on your hands and feet. A little daily care goes a long way in keeping your skin healthy and protected this winter.

🌿 5 Tips to Protect Your Skin

• Moisturize morning and night with a thick cream
• Wear gloves and warm socks outdoors
• Apply cream after washing while skin is slightly damp
• Use gentle, non-drying soap
• Treat rough areas early before cracks form

🚫 5 Things to Avoid

• Very hot water
• Ignoring dry or cracked skin
• Walking barefoot on cold floors
• Over-exfoliating
• Using harsh, alcohol-based products

Healthy skin is part of your overall wellness. A little daily care goes a long way toward preventing discomfort, infections, and foot problems — especially for seniors, diabetics, and those with circulation issues.

Stay warm. Stay moisturized. And take care of your skin — it works hard for you every day. 🤍👣👐

For professional-grade winter skin protection, I recommend Footlogix products — available through On The Go Nurse.

January is Alzheimer’s Awareness Month 💜

Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia and affects memory, thinking, behaviour, and the ability to carry out daily activities. As the disease progresses, it impacts not only the individual, but also families, caregivers, and the wider community.

As a nurse, and through my own experiences supporting loved ones with Alzheimer’s, I’ve seen how important early education, planning, and community support are in maintaining safety, dignity, and quality of life.

One of the most valuable steps families can take is connecting with the Alzheimer Society, which offers education, care planning, caregiver support, and local programs to help navigate the journey at every stage.

📍 For those in the Sarnia–Lambton area, the Alzheimer Society of Sarnia-Lambton provides support groups, education sessions, and practical resources:
🔗 alzheimer.ca/sarnialambton

🚓 Safety awareness:
Wandering is a common risk for people living with dementia. Registering a loved one with local police and participating in vulnerable person or identification programs can support a faster response if they become lost. Planning ahead can reduce risk and provide peace of mind.

Education leads to awareness. Awareness leads to better care, safer communities, and compassionate support for those living with Alzheimer’s and those who care for them.
