💚💚💚💚 "What clinicians forget sometimes is that there’s tremendous value to simply listening, validating and offering encouragement and respect and most importantly acknowledging uncertainty and being willing to accompany the patient on the journey."

Are you a hunter or do you know one?! Here are some tick tips for hunting this November. Ticks. Are. EVERYWHERE! 😔
➡️After returning from the field, always undress in a laundry room or garage to prevent ticks from entering the home.
➡️Immediately wash your clothing selecting the hottest water setting possible and take a shower.
➡️Perform a “tick check” looking for ticks in areas where they often escape notice (joints, folds of skin, etc.).

After returning from the outdoors, immediately put your clothes in a dryer on High Heat for 10 minutes to kill any ticks. Then launder as usual.
