This week is National Community Health Worker Awareness Week! A CHW, or Community Health Worker, is a frontline public health worker who is a trusted member of the community they serve. They typically have a close understanding of the community's culture, language, and needs. CHWs provide various services, including outreach, education, advocacy, and informal counseling, to improve health access and outcomes within their communities.

Everyone should have access to Narcan. Is saves lives! It can save the life of a child that has gotten into a medicine cabinet, a person that takes too much medicine after surgery, a person with memory issues that double doses, or someone experiencing an overdose from substance use. It should be part of every first aid kit

Parents, be on the lookout for consent forms coming home soon! Our Miles of Smiles team will be visiting your child’s school to provide:
Cleanings
Dental check-ups and assessments
Fluoride treatments
Sealants

✅ All services are of no charge to your family, no matter your insurance or ability to pay. All children 18 and younger in Lewis County are eligible.
✅ These visits do not replace your child’s dentist but serve as an extra check-up and cleaning to keep their teeth healthy and strong.
✅ Services are made possible through a partnership with the Kentucky Department of Public Health and Kentucky Medicaid.

Just fill out and return the consent form to your child’s school so they don’t miss out.

Alpha-gal Syndrome is caused by tick bites. In the United States, AGS is primarily associated with the bite of a lone star tick, and less commonly by the bite of a blacklegged tick or a western blacklegged tick. In other countries, other tick species have been linked to AGS. In the United States, not every person bitten by a lone star, blacklegged, or western blacklegged tick will develop AGS.

While people of all ages can develop AGS, most cases have been reported in adults.

Most reported cases of AGS in the United States occur in South, East, and Central states. These are the areas where most lone star ticks are found.
