2014 came in with a bang and won't be forgotten!

January has been a fast month, full of Mother Nature’s fury! Can you remember a winter with so much snow and so many below zero temperatures? We can only hope that once June rolls around, it behaves more like June and not June-uary!

At the beginning of the year, The Medical Foundation began an effort to be more of an educational resource for the communities we serve; because after all, we are your laboratory expert!  Through posts on Facebook and Twitter and updating blogs and our web page regularly, we hope you will learn more about various diseases, how to become healthier and the role that laboratory testing plays in each of our lives. It is our organization’s hope that you will learn from our communications and that you will you pass along information you feel is useful to your friends, co-workers or family members.

If you have logged onto our website this month, you probably learned a little more about The Medical Foundation and are now aware that January is the month for Healthy Weight Awareness, Birth Defects Awareness, National Blood Donor Appreciation Month and Thyroid Awareness. 

That’s a lot to be aware of! If you missed the original posts on our website, you can always look back at the blog to read anything that has been posted during the month.
Are there topics you think are important for others to learn about? Or topics that you want us to explore and write about? If so, you can email info@sbmf.org or post your thoughts on our Facebook or Twitter pages.

Be sure to check out our web page and other social media pages during February as The Foundation challenges the community to become healthier.  It’s a great challenge and we’ll even give you all the tools you need to be successful. We’ll also explore World Cancer Day, American Heart Month, introduce you to a pathologist and update and educate you on many other interesting topics.
