Summer tip from our PCN pharmacists: Don’t skip the sunscreen! ☀️

Sunscreen isn’t just for beach days; it’s an important part of your daily routine, especially in the summer. Whether you're walking the dog, gardening, or running errands, UV rays can damage your skin.

👩‍⚕️ Pharmacist-approved tips:

✔️ Choose broad-spectrum: Look for SPF 30 or higher with protection against both UVA and UVB rays.
✔️ Apply generously: Adults need about 30 mL for full-body coverage (about the size of a golf ball).
✔️ Reapply every 2 hours: Or more often if you're sweating or swimming.
✔️ Don’t forget the details: Ears, neck, tops of feet and the backs of hands are often missed.

Talk to your PCN pharmacist if you have sensitive skin or are taking medications that increase sun sensitivity.

Protect your skin now and thank yourself later. ☀️

📵 It’s time to unplug and head outside.

Turning off your tech, even for a little while, can boost your mood, reduce stress and recharge your body and brain. For Albertans, it's easier (and more affordable) than you think to get moving:

💊 Prescription to Get Active: Ask your doctor for this free “prescription” and get trial passes to rec centres and sporting activities across Alberta ➡️ https://bit.ly/4ljBHKr

⛰️ Canada Strong Pass: Until September 2, trek through national parks like Banff and Jasper for free ➡️ http://bit.ly/3TBW9u6

🌱 Stay close to home: Tend to your garden, visit a local park or explore your ’hood — consider inviting friends or family to enjoy it with!

Your PCN is here to support your health. Taking time to unplug is a great place to start. If you have questions, you can always talk to your doctor or health team.
