Flood Safety Tips

Take these important steps to reduce the harm caused by flooding.

Prepare for Hurricanes

You can't stop a tropical storm or hurricane, but you can take steps now to protect you and your family.

Prevent Food Poisoning

Anybody can get food poisoning, but some people are more likely to get seriously ill.

Mumps

Mumps vaccine is the best way to protect your child against mumps, a contagious disease that can cause serious complications. Talk to your healthcare professional or check your child's immunization records to ensure mumps vaccine is up to date.

Animals in Schools

Animals can be entertaining and educational. However, people, especially children, can get sick from contact with animals. The good news: You can help prevent illnesses from animals.

Food Deserts

If you struggle with finding affordable fruits, vegetables, whole grains, low-fat milk and other healthy foods, the important thing to remember is that you can still take steps to improve your diet.
