It is with profound sadness that we share the news of the passing of Elijah, the beloved son of our teammate.

Elijah brought so much light and joy to those around him, and his courage over the past year has inspired us all.

We want to extend our deepest thanks to everyone in our community for the incredible support you’ve shown Elijah and his family during this challenging time.

Your kind words, gestures, and unwavering encouragement meant the world and helped carry them through.

Please keep the Meyers family in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this difficult journey.

We’ll share more about ways to honor Elijah’s memory soon.

🚨 Anti-Depressants & Hot Weather 🚨

Two of the most commonly known types of psychiatric medication that can lead to overheating in hot weather are tricyclic antidepressants and antipsychotics. These kinds of medications can impair the temperature regulating area of the brain, the hypothalamus, from working 100% as it should.

Many antidepressants increase your likelihood of excessive sweating, known as hyperhidrosis.

Specifically, Tricyclic Acid and SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) antidepressants are responsible for this.

The way in which antidepressants cause excessive sweating is still relatively unknown – it is thought to be linked to the effects of serotonin, the happy hormone, in trying to maintain the internal core temperature of the body.

Your body sweats to try and cool down the body but overstimulation of this process can lead to overheating and excess sweating.

In the current heatwave, some people who are taking antidepressants will notice not only more sweating than usual, but also simply feeling the heat more.

This can then lead to dehydration, heat stroke, heat rash, and other heat related issues, so it’s essential that you’re really on top of all the regular hot-weather-related care, such as drinking plenty of water, taking time out of the sun, and avoiding overexertion.

Please stay safe 💜

We’re excited to share that Dr. Thomas Shimshak and our Cardic Cath Lab team performed Highlands County’s first Renal Denervation procedure at AdventHealth Sebring!

This FDA-approved treatment helps patients with resistant high blood pressure by using a small catheter to target overactive nerves in the kidney arteries—helping to lower blood pressure long-term.

We’re proud to bring advanced heart care closer to home for our community! 💙
