ACTION Health Center will offer free flu shots at two upcoming clinics in October. While the ACTION Health Center typically serves as a medical office for residents from birth up through age 26, the flu clinics will be available to residents of any age at no cost.

World Environmental Health Day is Sept. 26, and this year’s theme is “Clean Air, Healthy People!” Air quality is an important part of health. Did you know that air pollution can worsen asthma and other respiratory symptoms, and increase your risk of heart and lung issues?

September is National Emergency Preparedness Month. Talk to your family about creating an emergency “to go” kit to ensure you have the items needed when/if an emergency or incident occurs. Learn what items are recommended for a kit here: https://www.ready.gov/kit

Today is the Autumn Equinox which means it’s officially the First Day of Fall! As the weather starts cooling down, don’t forget to stay up-to-date on your flu shot. Find an immunization clinic near you: https://marionhealth.org/immunize/
