🌬️ Now that wind chill is reaching below freezing, you should learn about the risks of frostbite.

❄️ You're especially at risk when temperatures are below freezing (32°F). When wind speed increases, the wind chill will drop making frostbite more likely, like tomorrow's weather!

💦 Frostbite can happen fast. Stay warm, dry and get inside when you are able. Even simple things like plastic bags over socks or newspaper in clothing can help hold in heat. Frostbite can cause permanent damage or amputation if not treated.

🌨️ What to do if you think you have frostbite:
● Get to a warm place immediately.
● DO NOT rub the area - it can cause more damage.
● Warm slowly using body heat, warm blankets or cloth, or warm (not hot) water.
● Try to keep the area from getting cold again - this area will be sensitive to re-injury.
● Keep the area as clean as possible to prevent infection.

🏥 Get medical help as soon as possible for serious frostbite:
● Area remains cold to the touch or numb after warming
● Skin turns waxy, gray, white, blue, or black
● Blisters or darkened form over the cold area

🧣 Stay safe and warm, and always remember our care teams are here for you. 🩵

MRI appreciation post 💚🤭

Can we take a moment for our beautiful MRI? 🩵🥹
All jokes aside, it's a blessing.

🏡 Having close-to-home MRI can mean you're spending less time, anxiety and money on your appointments.
🚑 It can provide vital information in emergencies like: Abdominal pain, heart attack liver or heart failure, stroke, traumatic brain injuries and more
🧲 It helps diagnose issues by creating images of your body's internal structures and soft tissue using magnetic fields.
🧠 In the brain, it can also help find: Tumors, Alzheimer’s disease, multiple sclerosis, stroke
🩻 In the spine, it can also help find: Herniated discs, spinal cord injuries, spinal tumors
🦵 In the joints, it can also help find: Arthritis, ligament tears, cartilage damage
🎗️ In your abdomen/pelvis: Views your liver, kidney, gynecological area and breast tissue for cancers and conditions

MRI machines are vital, and we're grateful to have one of our own.
Consider getting your MRI here, just 5 minutes from either side of the city. 🌳
