La adolescencia se puede sentir como una montaña rusa emocional, y eso es algo normal en el paso a la edad adulta. Pero cuando sentimientos como la tristeza y el enojo no desaparecen, podría tratarse de algo mucho más serio.

Si su hijo adolescente muestra signos de depresión, hable con un médico. Llámenos al 📞 1 (800) 391-2000 para programar una consulta de bienestar del niño y obtener apoyo. ❤️

Earlier this week, we proudly celebrated the second cohort of our KFHC Mentorship Program! 🎉

Over the past several months, 16 mentees were paired with 16 mentors from across various departments and leadership levels. Together they explored new opportunities, shared knowledge and set meaningful career goals.

By connecting individuals from across our organization, this program fosters both personal and professional growth. It strengthens relationships, supports development and creates pathways for success, helping build a culture of continuous learning and support across KFHC.

This milestone reflects the meaningful connections made and the lasting impact of mentorship. We’re proud of all this cohort has accomplished and look forward to their continued progress and success.

We’re honored to share that Kern Family Health Care has been recognized as Mental Health Care Advocate of the Year at the World Bipolar Day Mental Health Awareness and Arts Festival in Wasco!

This recognition reflects the meaningful work happening every day to expand access to care, strengthen well-being and support our communities. In Wasco alone, more than 11,000 residents trust KFHC for their care, a powerful reflection of our connection to the community.

“What makes Kern Family Health Care stand out is what they do right here in our community,” said Veronica Jacuinde, co-founder of World Bipolar Day and editor in chief of the Wasco Tribune. “Most recently, they made a very generous donation to the Wasco Union High School Tiger Wellness Center, partnered with the Wasco Police Department PAL program to bring a monthly mobile clinic and sponsored the Live Better program in Shafter, giving families access to fitness opportunities at no cost.”

This award is a testament to the partnerships we’ve built, the trust we’ve earned and the commitment our team brings to every neighborhood we serve. Together, we’re building a healthier future for Kern County.

Stay Hydrated! 💧

Water helps your body stay balanced, energized and working properly.

Throughout the day, we lose fluids through our breath, sweat, p*e and bowel movements. Many experts suggest aiming for 6-8 cups of water daily to make up for the water loss.

¡Manténgase hidratado! 💧

El agua ayuda a su cuerpo a mantenerse balanceado, lleno de energía y funcionar correctamente.

A lo largo del día, perdemos líquidos a través de la respiración, el sudor, la o***a y las deposiciones. Muchos expertos sugieren beber entre 6 y 8 vasos de agua al día para reemplazar la pérdida de agua.

We were proud to sponsor the 26th Annual Leaders in Life (LIL) Youth Conference, recognized as the largest “for teens, by teens” conference on the West Coast! This year’s conference welcomed more than 1,200 students for a day of learning beyond the classroom. Students listened to two nationally recognized speakers, participated in mini conference sessions and explored a resource fair.

What sets this conference apart is its student-led approach. Students are directly involved in planning and executing the event, developing leadership skills that extend far beyond the conference day.

After the conference, students return to their schools empowered to lead, connect and uplift their p*ers, creating a lasting impact across our community. We are proud to support programs that invest in the next generation of future leaders. ❤️

For a month, Muslims around the world fast from sunrise to sunset during Ramadan, a sacred time of spiritual reflection. Fasting serves as a reminder of gratitude, patience and generosity.

Eid al-Fitr is a joyful celebration marking the end of this holy month.

At Kern Family Health Care, we wish our members, providers, and employees health, happiness and prosperity this Eid. 🌙✨
