The first FDA-approved oral GLP-1 pill has officially hit the U.S. market, and there are no needles involved. ❌

Whether you prefer a daily pill or a weekly shot, GLP-1 therapy can support weight loss goals. It really comes down to what fits your lifestyle best.

The pill 💊
✨ No needles. No equipment. Just a daily routine
⏰ Must be taken on an empty stomach with a 30-minute wait before eating or drinking
🎯 Works best if you have a consistent morning routine

The shot 💉
🗓️ Once a week. Set it and forget it
⚡ Often associated with stronger results due to higher dosing
🧊 Requires refrigeration and some planning if you travel

Both options contain the same active ingredient. The biggest difference is how you take it and how well it fits into your day-to-day life.

If you’re exploring GLP-1s, a conversation with your doctor can help you decide what’s right for you, whether that’s medication, bariatric care or another weight management option. Taking control of your health is a brave first step. 💙

A big congratulations to Kim Tsys on receiving a DAISY Award! 🌼💛

This recognition is especially meaningful because it comes straight from patients and families who wanted to say thank you for the care Kim provided when it mattered most.

Kim, a registered nurse on 3 North at Putnam Hospital, was nominated for the comfort, compassion and kindness she brings to every patient and family she serves. Moments like these are a reminder that nursing is about so much more than medicine. It’s about being present, listening and caring for our community like family.

Kim was surprised with her DAISY Award certificate, pin and Healer’s Touch sculpture alongside her team, plus the traditional cinnamon rolls and a DAISY banner that will remain on the unit for the quarter!

We are so proud to have nurses like her caring for our neighbors every day. Thank you, Kim, for being such a powerful example of what community-centered care looks like. 💙

🚨 Flu cases are surging, and Influenza A (H3N2) is hitting harder this season. Symptoms can come on fast and feel more intense, but early care can make a difference.

If flu symptoms begin, reaching out to your primary care provider early is key. Antiviral medications may be recommended and are most effective when started within the first 48 hours. Your provider can help guide next steps and monitor symptoms based on your health history.

If symptoms worsen or you’re unable to reach your primary care provider, visiting urgent care can help ensure timely evaluation and treatment.

The ER should be used for severe symptoms such as a fever of 103°F or higher that doesn’t respond to medication, trouble breathing, chest pain, confusion or signs of dehydration.

Knowing when and where to seek care matters. Staying informed helps protect your family and your community this flu season. Scroll to learn what to more of watch for and when to seek care. 💙

Not all sniffles are created equal. 🤧

We broke down four of the most common over-the-counter cold and flu medications to help you find the right fit for your symptoms.

Here’s what we compared:
✅ Which symptoms they relieve best
✅ Active ingredients
✅ What each medication is best for

If you’re dealing with flu, COVID-19 or another winter illness, choosing the right level of care matters.

🤒 Urgent care = moderate symptoms like fever, cough, congestion or body aches
🚨 ER = severe symptoms like trouble breathing, chest pain, confusion or dehydration

As always, talk with your primary care provider about your sick-season plan and choosing the right medication for your symptoms. Stay safe this sick season!
