If your New Year's resolutions include nutrition goals, you should think about keeping them small and achievable, so you can continue building momentum throughout the year. Not sure where to start? Try getting a little fiber in each meal, since most Americans are falling short in that area. Women should aim for 25 grams a day. Men should shoot for 32 grams. Or, try getting more protein in your diet.
"Focus on getting 20 grams of protein each meal, aiming for 3 main meals per day," said McLaren Flint clinical dietitian Elexia Sylvester. "For example. have a 5 ounce cup of Greek yogurt, with ¼ cup granola, a sprinkle of flax or chia seeds, and your favorite fruit, which adds up to around 20 grams of protein."

WHAT'S GOING AROUND?— Each week, we ask our ER physicians what ailments and conditions are commonly being seen in our Emergency Room.

THIS WEEK, Craig Keinath, an emergency physician assistant with McLaren, reports:

Influenza
More and more patients have been testing positive for influenza A, making it the most common reason patients are seeking care in the ED for symptoms of fever, cough, muscle aches, and vomiting.

RSV
Though not yet trending, there have been several patients who have tested positive for RSV, presenting with symptoms of fever and persistent cough.

Strep throat
There has been a growing trend of pediatric patients testing positive for strep throat after experiencing symptoms of a sudden sore throat and fever.

Slip and falls
Continuing icy and wintery conditions continue to send patients to the emergency and trauma center with orthopedic and soft tissue injuries.

Thank you and congratulations to McLaren Flint's December Outstanding Employee of the Month, Dana McChristion. Dana is the front office coordinator at the Outpatient Wound Care specialty clinic. Her colleagues admire her work ethic, terrific attitude, and especially her empathy for patients, often going above and beyond to help them.
"Dana goes out of her way to make sure patients are comfortable and feel taken care of," said her nominator. "One example- after recognizing the struggles a patient was having sitting in our waiting room chairs due to his height, she instructed him to call from his car upon arrival, so she could es**rt him to the exam room, allowing him to bypass the waiting room. This patient comes in every Friday, and she does this for every visit."

The Burton Fraternal Order of Eagles has generously donated $4,475 to the McLaren Flint Foundation to support our Cancer Patient Care Fund again this year. Each year the organization hosts a fundraiser to support patients and families impacted by cancer as part of their "people helping people" mission. The gift will help provide critical financial assistance for groceries, household and medical bills, gas, and other needs to Karmanos Cancer Institute patients who are struggling on their healing journey. If you see or know a member of the Burton Eagles, please thank them for the amazing work they do to lift up the people in our community.
