🚨 Never leave a child in a parked car — not even for a minute.

Temperatures inside a car can rise dangerously fast, even on mild days. A child’s body heats up 3–5 times faster than an adult’s.

Here are simple ways to help prevent a tragedy:
✔ Always check the back seat before locking your car.
✔ Keep a stuffed animal in the car seat — move it to the front seat to remind you.
✔ Place your phone, purse or work badge next to the car seat.
✔ Set a reminder on your phone if you have a change in routine.

If you ever spot a child left alone in a vehicle, don’t hesitate — call 911 right away.

August is National Immunization Awareness Month — the perfect time to protect your health and the health of those you love!

Vaccines help your immune system recognize and fight off illness so you can stay well or recover more quickly. From childhood to adulthood, staying up to date on immunizations is one of the easiest ways to stay strong and healthy.

📌 Learn more about recommended vaccines for all ages:

July 26 marks Disability Independence Day, commemorating the signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990. It’s also a powerful reminder that independence means more than mobility. It means access to care, opportunity and support that respects every individual’s path.

🕶️ Sunglasses are more than just a fashion accessory; they’re an important tool for protecting your eyes from the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. Exposure to UV rays can damage our eyes and possibly lead to vision loss. Follow these tips when choosing your next pair of shades to protect your eyes!

Do you know what a UV Index (UVI) is? It’s a number that tells you how strong the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays are. Why is it important? Because exposure to UV rays can damage your skin and eyes if you don’t use proper protection, like sunscreen, sunglasses, hats and clothing. The scale runs from 1 to 11+, and the higher the UV rating for the day, the more sun protection is needed if you’re going to be outdoors. You can check the UVI in your area each day on your smartphone’s weather app or online: https://www.weather.gov/ilx/uv-index

Mental health is personal and can be influenced by culture, community and life experience. BIPOC Mental Health Month is a time to reflect on that connection while shedding light on the importance of care that meets the unique realities of the people it serves.

At Molina Healthcare, we’re committed to listening, learning and expanding access to mental health support that meets people where they are—with compassion, respect and understanding.
