🩺 National Senior U.T.I. Awareness Day 💧

Today we shine a light on an important, but often overlooked, health issue affecting older adults: urinary tract infections (UTIs).

UTIs can be serious for seniors, sometimes leading to confusion, falls, or hospital visits if left untreated. The signs may not always be obvious: changes in behavior, confusion, fatigue, or loss of appetite can all be warning signals.

👉 What you can do:

Encourage proper hydration 💧

Support regular bathroom routines 🚻

Watch for changes in mood, alertness, or behavior 🧠

Seek medical advice early, don’t wait for classic symptoms like pain or fever

Let’s use today to raise awareness, share knowledge, and protect our loved ones.
A simple conversation could make a life-changing difference.

🍂 As the air turns crisp and the days shorten, now’s a perfect moment to give your health a little seasonal boost:

➡️ Get Moving Outdoors: A brisk walk in the cool air not only engages your muscles but also lifts your mood and combats those “fall blues”.

➡️ Fuel with Fall Produce: Try adding seasonal favorites like butternut squash, apples, pears or mushrooms to your meals. They’re packed with nutrients that support your immune system.

➡️ Stay Hydrated & Rested: Even though it’s cooler, your body still needs water—and shorter daylight means your routine can tilt off. Make sure you’re drinking enough and aiming for consistent sleep.

➡️ Stay Ahead of Cold & Flu: With the shift in season comes a rise in illnesses. Simple habits like hand-washing, staying home when ill, and checking in on your immunity help protect you and those around you.

🔖 Tip: Share this post with someone who could use a little seasonal health check-in. Because when we keep each other healthy, we’re all better off.

🧼 Today’s a clean reminder!

It’s Global Handwashing Day. And yes, we know… you already wash your hands. 😉
But do you really?

Studies show most people think they’re handwashing pros, but skip steps or rush the 20-second rule. (Humming the “Happy Birthday” song twice wasn’t just a pandemic fad, it actually works!) 🎶

Here’s your friendly refresher from Pioneer Physicians Network:
1️⃣ Wet your hands
2️⃣ Lather with soap (fronts, backs, between, under nails, all of it!)
3️⃣ Scrub for 20 seconds
4️⃣ Rinse & dry completely

Simple? Yes. Done right every time? Not so much.
Let’s clean up our act together this Global Handwashing Day!
https://globalhandwashing.org/global-handwashing-day/

a global advocacy day dedicated to increasing awareness and understanding about the importance of handwashing with soap as an effective and affordable way to prevent diseases and save lives. Global Handwashing Day is an opportunity to design, test, and replicate creative ways to encourage people to....

💜 We Made a Splash for a Cause! 💜

Pioneer Physicians Network recently hosted a Dunk-a-Doc fundraiser at our corporate office in support of the Walk to End Alzheimer’s. Several of our doctors and executives took the plunge into the dunk tank, while Pioneer offices donated for the chance to let their staff skip the throw and press the target by hand!

The weather was nice, the turnout was fantastic, and the generosity of our staff, physicians, patients, and volunteers made the event a huge success.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated and supported this important cause. Together, we’re helping raise awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer’s.

📸 Take a look at the photos, we truly made a splash!
