May is Mental Health Awareness Month, a timely reminder that supporting mental
well-being is essential in both our personal and professional lives. It’s an opportunity to reduce stigma, encourage open conversations and prioritize self-care while also checking in on colleagues, friends and loved ones.
By fostering understanding and compassion, we can help create environments where everyone feels supported and empowered to seek help when they need it. 💚
If you or someone you know needs support, consider talking to your healthcare provider about available mental health resources and services.

Documenting your preferences for your health care and personal matters helps to prepare your loved ones for the future. 🤍 This is called Advance Care Planning. You can make sure the people you trust know what to do if there is ever a time that you are unable to make or communicate decisions yourself.
There are lots of free and low-cost community resources to help you with this process, including your health care team. A PCN social worker can help answer your questions and provide you with guidance around completing these documents. Our PCN also offers a Personal Directives & Enduring Power of Attorney class, where you leave with completed documents.
Ask your primary care provider for a referral, or learn more about Advance Care Planning: https://buff.ly/YBd9vw7

Today, on World Family Doctor Day, we are celebrating the incredible impact family physicians have on the health and well-being of our communities. 🩺 Thank you, Dr. Sheik for encouraging healthier lifestyles and helping patients build habits that support their physical and mental well-being at every stage of life.
Q: What’s one simple change people can make to improve their overall health?
A: Increase exercise/physical activity. Physical activity not only helps maintain a healthy weight, reducing the risk of diabetes and other cardiovascular diseases, but also improves mental health and mobility as we age.
