Helping ensure our community is healthy is important to me. In case you missed it, this was posted Friday to the “Is Our Community Healthy” group and we’d like your feedback.

This just in from Make Healthy Choices Easy…… Did you know too much screen time can cause anxiety & depression, neck & back pain and weight gain? What can you do to red…[Read more]

Thank you for sharing, Jan. I am definitely someone who gets “tech neck” frequently from screen time (9:49pm and I’m hunched over a computer…oops). Do you have any information on techniques to lower screen time in working individuals and/or stretches to help combat neck and back pain stemming from screen time? Thanks!

I’d like to see our children and youth actively engaged in movement and deeply thought provoking activities. The time spent on cell phones, computers, video games, and tablets continues to be quite alarming. What are your ideas for our precious young ones?

I worry that our area isnt providing the jobs, doctors, and education of children that keep a family here in Allegany County. We have alot to offer that doesnt translate into tangable things that people can relate to. I dont want my child to have to move away in order to get a good paying job. Does anyone else worry about the same thing?

Susan Stewart replied 6 years, 2 months ago

Thank you for mentioning this. I think many of us feel the same way. For those who wish to become a health professional, the salary outlook is much improved over many of the other jobs near here. AHEC West operates the ECHO (Exploring Careers in Health Occupations) program for students between their Freshman and Senior years of high school. It’s…[Read more]

Next week I will share the preliminary results from our Launch Survey, which centers on what matters to the people of Allegany County.
If you haven’t taken the survey yet, please do! It’s very short and takes little time 🙂

Here’s some interesting information about marijuana use during pregnancy. The new “Pregnancy and Child Health” action board will include more topics like this!

Jennifer Corder posted an update in the group What matters to you? 6 years, 2 months ago

An important topic was unintentionally missing in the Launch Survey. Services and opportunities for people with developmental disabilities or special needs is very important.

If anyone else feels that this is an important issue please include it in the “other” category in the survey, or share more in the conversation here.
