🌍💚 Happy Earth Day! Caring for our community means caring for the place our community calls home. Since 2022, caregiver-led environmental stewardship at ChristianaCare has:

🌱 Redirected $1.5 million in medical supplies to nonprofits and global partners
🌱 Diverted more than 106,000 pounds of supplies, equipment, and furniture from landfills
🌱 Reduced carbon emissions from anesthetic gases by 71%

"Every supply we keep out of the landfill is another opportunity to support a student, a patient, or a community that needs it," said Deanna Benner, MSN, APRN, ChristianaCare's first Environmental Health and Sustainability Program Manager. “A healthy environment and a healthy community are inseparable, and we are committed to advancing both."

Happy Earth Day to the caregivers making this work possible.

🧠 Would you recognize the signs of a stroke? It could save a life.

A stroke can happen suddenly—and knowing what to look for can make all the difference. Every minute matters because when the brain is deprived of oxygen, brain cells begin to die.

Remember F.A.S.T.:
👉 F – Face drooping
👉 A – Arm weakness
👉 S – Speech difficulty
👉 T – Time to call 911

Other warning signs can include sudden confusion, trouble seeing, dizziness, loss of balance, or a severe headache with no known cause.

If you notice any of these symptoms—even if they go away—call 911 immediately. Acting fast can save a life and reduce long-term damage.
