Swim Safe This Summer

July 2025 — As summer temperatures begin to rise in the Treasure Valley, it’s common for families to head to pools, lakes, and water parks to cool off. While swimming is a favorite summer pastime, it’s important to remember that water safety should always come first, especially for kids. According to the CDC, drowning is the leading cause of death for children ages 1 to 4 in the United States, and even nonfatal drowning incidents can lead to serious health complications. Fortunately, there are many ways to enjoy the water while staying safe.

Don’t Hit the Road Without This Summer Safety Essential

Summer in Idaho means road trips, camping, lake days, and more time spent outdoors. This also means more opportunity for scrapes, stings, sunburns, and unexpected injuries. Whether you’re headed across town or into the mountains, keeping a well-stocked first aid kit with you is a simple but important way to be prepared for anything the season brings.

Nearly Half of U.S. Adults Have Hypertension

High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, affects nearly 48% of adults in the U.S. according to the CDC. Even more concerning is most people don’t even know they have it. Sometimes called the “silent killer,” hypertension typically causes no noticeable symptoms, but it can quietly damage your heart, brain, and kidneys over time.

Spring Cleaning for Allergy Relief

Spring is here, and while longer days and blooming flowers are welcome signs of the warmer season, it also brings pollen, dust, and other allergens that can make life a little harder for those with seasonal allergies.
