Tip of the Month
H1N1 IS NOT OVER - YET
Community info: Medical experts are predicting another wave of H1N1 in the near future. The best prevention is a vaccination according to our Point Roberts Health clinic and many other medical organizations. Our clinic has vaccines available. Please call the clinic at 945-2580 for an appointment.
Important monthly tip:
Although our weather has been unseasonably warm this past winter and spring is very near, remember... Remain prepared in the event of unexpected snowfall or power outage. If you have a generator, run it monthly. Keep emergency supplies in your car trunk until the chance of snow is well past. Remember, if you need help during a heavy snowfall or long term power outage, please call - PREP at 945-PREP for assistance.
Volunteer one day a month.
Remember.... PREP is YOU
