Pinehurst Medical Clinic (PMC) is inspired every day by our amazing staff through their commitment to providing high-quality patient-centered care to the communities we serve. Each year, our team looks forward to our annual Company Christmas Card Contest—a fun tradition that gives employees a chance to share their creativity and holiday spirit.

The contest is led by PMC's Employee Wellness Program and this year’s winning design was created by Kate McDonald! Kate, a recent graduate of PMC's Certified Clinical Medical Assistant (CCMA) program, works as a CCMA for Dr. Wallner and with the team at PMC Dermatology in Southern Pines.

Kate also previously pursued a career in graphic and digital design and brought that creative background into her festive, lighthearted entry. Inspired by retro, colorful Christmas trends—especially the playful bows—her design celebrates the simple magic of the season. For Kate, the artwork is a reminder to slow down and appreciate cozy moments at home with family, from cuddling by the tree to watching a favorite Christmas classic.

As we enter the holiday season, we hope Kate's design provides you with a sense of inspiration, creativity and a gentle reminder to slow down and appreciate the little moments and magic of the season, as it has for all of us.

Happy Holidays from PMC! During this time of the year it’s important to remember to prioritize your self-care.

The PMC Wellness Team is here with some simple tips to help you take care of yourself during this busy season:

1. Set a budget. The season of giving can bring financial stress, so create a realistic budget early, and stick to it.
2. Don’t over schedule yourself. Prioritize activities that bring you joy and energy. It’s okay to say no to events that feel draining or overwhelming.
3. Set aside time for yourself. Whether it’s reading, walking, napping, or watching a cozy movie, and make space for the things that help you recharge.
4. Practice moderation. Enjoy holiday treats and drinks but try to keep balance in mind, and most importantly, be kind to yourself.
5. Enjoy family time on your terms. Set boundaries if you need to, and don’t be afraid to take breaks or limit the time you spend in high-energy environments.

The holiday season can be joyful, but it can also be overwhelming. As things get busy, don’t forget to take care of yourself — mentally, physically, emotionally, and financially.

From all of us at the PMC Wellness Team, we wish you a happy, healthy, and peaceful holiday season. If you’re looking for additional support or resources, visit the PMC Wellness Team website: https://www.pinehurstmedical.com/our-services/wellness-clinic
