"My mother, grandfather, two uncles and cousin all joined various branches of the military, and serving as a combat medic was just a natural choice for me.

With the rising COVID-19 trends, NCDHHS strongly recommends avoiding holiday travel and limiting contact with people who do not live in your household.
If you do plan to get together with people you don't live with:
- Get tested 1-3 days before you travel. Get tested 3-5 days after travel AND stay home for 7 days after travel. Find a testing site near you, including no-cost locations: covid19.ncdhhs.gov/about-covid-19/testing/find-my-testing-place
- Keep the gathering outside
- Remember that the following the 3 Ws (wearing a mask, waiting 6 feet apart and washing your hands often) are still the best tools to protect our loved ones and ensure our hospitals have the capacity for those that need them

As cases of COVID-19 continue to climb in our region, we are urging our community to stay vigilant. Help us save lives by staying home and if you must go out, remember these three simple things: https://bit.ly/2Xc4E29
Prioritizing your mental health may not be as complicated as you think. We asked one of our experts, Ashtin Dicochea, Licensed Clinical Social Worker at South Point Family Practice, to share one tip for improving mental health:
"Focus on being present. How many times a day do you think or say ‘I should be doing ____.’ We all can get wrapped up in endless to-do lists and all those things we feel need attention that we forget to fully connect with what we are doing in the moment. Over time, this can have a negative impact on our mental health. Taking breaks from the ‘should be’ thinking can make you more productive and more focused, so I recommend finding time daily to slow down, re-center on what is happening in the moment and remove the guilt from your thoughts."
Our doctor's offices, clinics and urgent care locations remain a safe option for exceptional care. You should never delay medical treatment or routine check ups. Find a location close to you: https://www.caromonthealth.org/Locations.aspx
Did you know your brain is 75% water? That's why hydration is so important!

Challenging times can take a toll on your emotional well-being. If you are looking to improve your mental health but don't know where to start, Taylor Gulley, Licensed Clinical Social Worker with CaroMont Family Medicine at Gaston Day has a helpful tip:
"This year, begin to recognize what is known as ‘self-talk.’ You may not realize it, but you talk to yourself every day. And often, we don’t notice that we are speaking to ourselves in a very negative way. Give yourself permission to recognize and listen to what that voice says and how it says it. Is it congratulatory and uplifting or is it criticizing and harsh? Also, where did these words and statements come from? Ourselves? Someone else? Childhood? How valid are they? Paying attention and recognizing that voice can help you challenge those words and begin to replace them with more supportive and realistic ones."
