It’s the holiday season, and that means toy-sharing and gift-giving are in full swing. But before you give that special child a new toy, it’s important to stop and consider: Is this toy safe and age-appropriate? Unfortunately, thousands of children are hurt or even killed each year due to an interaction with an unsafe or developmentally inappropriate toy. December is known as Safe Toys and Gifts Month in order to create a happy, healthy, and safe gift-giving experience for all involved. https://nationaltoday.com/safe-toys-and-gifts-month/

NATIONAL COPD AWARENESS MONTH National COPD Awareness Month dedicates all of November to educating the public about a disease that makes breathing difficult. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is any disorder that persistently bronchial obstructs airflow. During National COPD Awareness Month, learn about the causes and become an advocate for prevention. One of the biggest causes of COPD is smoking. While it’s not the only cause, this lifestyle factor plays an overwh...elming role in determining risk factors for COPD. If you care about your respiratory health and you smoke, take steps to quit smoking now. Other environmental factors that may point toward COPD include dust, chemical exposure and more. Throughout the month, organizations will hold events providing opportunities for you to learn about COPD. Test your risk factors or find out how to rally support. While you’re learning, participate in activities that will test your knowledge and help you breathe a little easier. Hopefully, these events clear the air a bit and point the way toward a healthier lifestyle for your family or answer questions about COPD. https://nationaldaycalendar.com/national-copd-month-novemb/

NATIONAL HAND WASHING AWARENESS WEEK The first week of December is National Hand Washing Awareness Week You know what that means?! It’s time to get hygienic, people! Making a habit of good hand hygiene is an easy, effective way to prevent infections and sicknesses. If you’re someone that chooses to skip the hand washing once in a while, read these mind blowing statistics and you might think again next time! 80% of communicable diseases can be transferred by touch (person-to-...person contact). Washing your hands a few times a day can reduce diarrhea rates by 40%. Touching your face with dirty hands spreads sicknesses pneumonia, a cold, and the flu. Pneumonia is the number one cause of childhood death, and is preventable by regular hand washing. The two most important times to wash your hands are before and after preparing food, and after going to the bathroom. Less than 75% of women and less than 50% of men wash their hands after using the bathroom When you flush a toilet with the seat up, a mist containing bacteria is spread over about 6 square meters. Even worse Sinks in public bathrooms are 90% covered in this bacteria. The ideal amount of time to wash your hands is 30 seconds, but 15 is recommended at the very least. Most bacteria on our hands is under our fingernails, so when you’re washing, be sure to scrub underneath them. Damp hands are 1,000 times more likely to spread bacteria than dry hands, yet only 20% of people dry their hands after they wash them. Reusable cloth towels have millions of bacteria in their fibers. Using disposable paper towels is the cleanest way to dry your hands. Studies show that people who wash their hands have 24% less sick days because of respiratory illness, and 51% fewer sick days due to a sick stomach. Are you grossed out yet!? Sorry, but we had to let you know. https://nationaldaycalendar.com/national-hand-washing-awar/

AD ranks as the sixth leading cause of death in the U.S. and the most common form of dementia in 60-80% of all diagnosed cases.
