Reminder to be Safe this Winter!
While Mother Nature has been pretty kind to us so far, there are still a few tips we’d like to share with you.
Take care of YOURself. Do not overexert yourself shoveling snow. Heavy snow in cold temperatures is a lot for your body when it is not used to this.
Stay DRY. Wet clothing loses its insulating factors.
Don’t walk with your hands in your pockets during the winter. Are my Adult Children covered?

This means they can even be employed, offered health coverage or married and STILL be on your health insurance policy. Benton County Community Foundation (BCCF) hosts grant writing workshop

I grew up nearby in Dike and later attended the University of Northern Iowa where I received a degree in Biology. When I started at UNI, I knew I wanted to serve people from a health field, so I shadowed many different health related professions to figure out which one was right for me.
