June is Play Safe month
To enjoy your summer-- play safe.
Here in Minnesota and Wisconsin, the wonderful months of summer pass all too quickly. As you rush to enjoy and make the most of them, remember to play safely! Here are some tips to help ensure your summer's memories will be happy ones. · Wear sunscreen and a hat. · Be safe around pools and lakes. · Always wear a lifejacket when boating. · Supervise kids at play areas and parks. · Teach children bike, skateboard, scooter, roller-blading, and heely safety. · Remember . . . drink water to stay hydrated. · When headed to the beach, use common sense when drinking alcohol.
Accidents can happen around the home, too.
Before mowing the yard, clear the lawn of rocks, twigs and other matter that could be slung from the mower. Rocks can shoot out of a lawn mower like a bullet.
Barbecuing is another popular, and potentially dangerous, summer activity. · Never leaving a grill unattended. · Keep children away from the cooking area. · Only use approved lighter fluid to start grills. Never use fluids such as gasoline or WD-40.
Sun safety to prevent serious skin damage · Remember that the sun is strongest between 10 am and 2 pm. · Keep children 6 months or younger out of the sun. · Wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses. · Wear protective clothing as often as possible. · Apply sunscreen with a SPF of 15 or higher before going outdoors, and reapply often. · If you have thin or thinning hair, protect your scalp, too.
Finally, being safe this summer is simply about using good judgment and common sense.
Remember . . . we're here if you need urgent or emergency care!
