This Month...
In 1969, a proclamation was signed designating January as National Blood Donor Month, a time to recognize and spread awareness of the need for blood and platelets. National Blood Donor Month (NBDM) also celebrates the lifesaving impact of those who regularly donate, and encourages new donors to give blood as a New Year’s Resolution. This year, America’s Blood Centers, the Association for the Advancement of Blood & Biotherapies, and the American Red Cross are joining together to thank America’s more than 7 million blood donors. The winter months are one of the most difficult times to collect lifesaving blood, so make it
your resolution to schedule a donation appointment!
Other notable celebrations in the month of January include…
- Glaucoma Awareness Month
- CervicalHealth Awareness Month
- Self-Love Month
- Martin Luther King Jr. Day - 3rd Monday in January
- Chinese New Year - January 22, 2023

January is named after the Roman
god, Janus. He had two faces so he could see the future and the past.

"When is it Time for Assisted Living?"
It isn’t always easy to pinpoint when staying at home is no longer the best option. Here are a few factors to consider that it’s time for a more supportive environment for yourself or a loved one:
- Social Isolation – Withdrawing from friends and regular activities because of declining health, embarrassment over memory or personal care issues, or lack of mobility can lead to isolation, loneliness, and even depression in seniors.
- Physical Limitations – Problems with movement and balance can lead to a fall, which can have additional health
consequences. If your loved one expresses a fear of falling or has a history of physical issues, you may want to begin exploring assisted living options...
