Composting: Enhancing the Environment
A healthy environment is crucial for our overall well-being and vitality, as it directly impacts our daily lives. One effective method to enhance our environment is through composting, which offers numerous environmental benefits. By composting, we can significantly reduce waste production. For instance, in the City of Prince Albert, a staggering 40% of landfill-bound waste comprises organic material that could instead be transformed into compost, thereby averting the generation of methane gas and harmful leachates within the landfill. Embracing composting practices not only minimizes waste but also contributes to a healthier planet and a more sustainable future.

Falls are a leading cause of injury among older adults. Here are tips for fall prevention: *Keep moving – activities like walking and tai chi can reduce the risk of falls by improving strength, balance and flexibility. *Wear sensible shoes – properly fitting, sturdy, flat shoes with nonskid soles help with balance and stability. *Consult your healthcare provider or pharmacist – they may want to talk about your medications and health conditions if you’ve had falls previously. Changes to your vision or undiagnosed foot problems can also increase the chances of falling. Preventing falls reduces injuries and may help you stay in your home longer.
Food for Thought
A multi-pronged brain fitness program includes nutrition, exercise, stress reduction, social interaction, sleep and stimulating activities. Cognitive fitness is the bedrock of a rewarding and self-sufficient life. The brain is constantly at work, even while you’re asleep. The brain communicates with systems throughout the body via neurons, or nerve cells, impacting your entire body. Reading books, playing word games and learning to play an instrument are all stimulating activities to impact cognition. Water is necessary in nearly every function in the human body, making adequate hydration crucial for maintaining good health. Research shows being dehydrated may impair brain function and cause low energy levels.

After the assessment, your pharmacist may prescribe medication or refer you to another healthcare provider.

Your primary care provider will be notified to support continuity of care and treatment outcomes.
