February is the month that we all celebrate
Valentines Day. This is the day we show everyone we care about just how much,
with something as simple as a box of candy in the shape of a heart, or perhaps a
heart shaped necklace. The kids bring us home picture of hearts representing how
much they love us. Happy Valentines Day!
February is also a very important month in a lot of
other ways as well. It is the month that American Heart Association has deemed
Heart Health Month!
All of us at Minonk Ambulance Service would like to
extend an invitation to stop in at Minonk Ambulance and get your blood pressure
checked.
It is also the time in which you should check your CPR Cards
Expiration date. What? You don’t have a CPR card? You had one years ago? We can
fix that, we have instructors on site, that’s right just a phone call away. Come
on, pick up that phone what are you waiting for? Everyone should know CPR and be
familiar with an Automated External Defibrillator (AED). Almost every airport,
health club, and every school your child attend as an AED. It is all of our
responsibility to know how to operate one in the event it may be needed. You
could be the one possible person that knows what to do if you pick up the phone
and call 309-432-2730.
Since it is Heart Healthy month we would like to share this
link to heart healthy recipes from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. It is something that all ages will enjoy, and
let’s face it; you are never too young to start thinking about having a healthy
heart. Let the kids help, and while you are preparing the meal, explain to them
the dangers of not eating healthy, and how one can do damage to their heart just
by the things they eat. A happy healthy heart helps us maintain a happy healthy
life.
