Winter storm Fern may impact many of our patients and team members in the South and Northeast this weekend. Read more here: https://pulse.ly/qyvcbbghoc

We encourage everyone in affected areas to remain vigilant and be prepared for the effects of this storm including possible power outages and road closures.

We want to make sure our Aveanna community is prepared. Patients and their families should follow these tips based on guidance from the Oley Foundation:

• If there is a true medical emergency please call 911.

• Make sure you have back up power or batteries ready for any medical devices or pumps you depend on. Keep a battery powered radio and your cell phone charged so you can stay informed.

• Plug in any medical equipment or devices that need to be charged (e.g., ventilators, feeding pumps, mobile phones, etc.)

• Listen to appropriate warnings from governmental officials advising of precautions and evacuations.

• Check with home care suppliers and medical providers NOW to ensure that you have enough medications and nutritional supplies (formula, HPN, etc.) to last at least 48–72 hours, in case of supply chain delays.

• Write down important telephone numbers in case you cannot access the contacts on your mobile phone. This includes, but is not limited to, your home care company branch, regional and national offices.

• For the most updated information on weather conditions visit the National Weather Service at https://pulse.ly/q0motimoj7

*If you are evacuated or relocated due to a weather emergency, notify your Aveanna team as soon as possible.

Be prepared and stay safe!

January is National Blood Donor Month, a special time to highlight the crucial role of blood donations and to honor those who give.

The American Red Cross states that every two seconds, someone in the U.S. requires blood. One donation can aid multiple patients, making your contribution vital in transforming lives. During the winter season, when seasonal weather and illnesses can impact blood drives, the need for consistent donations is even more important.

This month, become a lifeline for those in need! Find out more by visiting https://pulse.ly/jtdwflrpfs

All week long, we’ve been highlighting the importance of handwashing for National Handwashing Awareness Week. As we head into the holidays—when we’re gathering with loved ones, traveling, and sharing meals—clean hands are one of the simplest ways to keep everyone healthy.

Take 20 seconds with soap and water before/after gatherings, shopping trips, and caring for loved ones. This small habit can make a big impact!

Germs spread faster than you think! Touching your face, handling food with unwashed hands, or coughing into your hands can transfer germs easily. With increased travel and social activity during the holiday season, wash your hands often to keep others safe.

December is Universal Human Rights Month, a time to honor the inherent rights of every individual.

At Aveanna, we proudly reflect on these fundamental freedoms and the values that unite us all. The observance of this special month traces back to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was adopted by the United Nations in 1948. Throughout the month, take time to embrace diversity, celebrate cultural uniqueness, and stand together for equality, justice, and freedom for all.

Handwashing is a simple act with a big impact! Washing your hands helps protect you, your family, and your care team. Lather up for 20 seconds and keep those germs away.
