York County Libraries are partnering with T-Mobile to test a new library service, Hotspots To Go. Martin Library in York and Collinsville Community Library in Brogue are now able to loan mobile hotspot devices to library members as part of a three-month pilot project. Library members age 18 and older can borrow the hotspots for a set fee for a three-week loan period. The hotspots will connect library members to unlimited, high-speed internet service anywhere a T-Mobile sig-

nal can be received. Collinsville Community Library manager Ellen Helfrick said that many families in the rural community of Brogue cannot access internet service at their homes. At Martin Library, which is in an urban area, the public access computers and WiFi see heavy use. Internet service is readily available in the city, but is cost-prohibitive for some members, so they visit the library. The mobile hotspots support smartphones, tablets, desktop

Philadelphia Insurance recently contributed $9,000 to Community Progress Council (CPC) to help fund the agency’s WrapAround Child Care program, which helps extend the workday for parents whose children are enrolled in CPC’s Head Start and Pre-K Counts programs. Absence of such before- and after-school programs is often a barrier for parents looking for sustainable employment in York County. The donation was made through an Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC), which allows businesses to delegate money to approved nonprofit organizations as an alternative to the tax liability they have with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. CPC works with low- and moderate-income individuals and families of all ages to examine their current situations and determine how its programs best align with their needs. Programs include early childhood education through Head Start, Early Head Start, Pre-K Counts and the Foster Grandparent Program; Workforce Development; housing and rental counseling, educa-

and two-car garages may seem like the perfect places to create home gyms. However, the benefits of working out at a gym may outweigh the convenience of working out at home. · Workout partners and/or other gym members may improve one’s chances of losing weight. People who exercise at home tend to work out alone. In so doing, they may be removing a potentially strong motivator that could keep them exercising. A 2016 study published in the research journal Obesity found that working out with a fit friend or simply interacting with fellow gym members who maintain healthy weights can benefit people who are trying to lose weight through exercise. · Gym memberships have a way of paying for themselves.

Routine exercise benefits minds and bodies in various ways. Studies have shown that physical activity can improve mood and lower people’s risk for various diseases, including heart disease and diabetes. As beneficial as exercise can be, many people simply don’t make physical activity part of their regular routines. Recent studies and reports from the National Center for Health Statistics found that roughly 80% of adults in the U.S. are not meeting the minimum physical activity requirements recommended by the government. While a host of factors can influence a person’s decisions on physical activity, where to exercise is one factor that could go a long way toward determining just how much adults exercise. Basements, attics, spare bedrooms,

Healthy eating can be difficult to navigate. Since no two people are the same, a healthy diet that satisfies one person won’t necessarily satisfy another. While the most effective diets tend to be those that emphasize nutrition while still allowing individuals to indulge in some of their favorite dishes in moderation, the following are three ways that everyone, regardless of their personal preference, can eat healthier every day. 1. Eat whole-grain carbohydrates. Fad diets tend to paint carbs as the enemy, but various studies have shown just how integral carbohydrates, particularly whole-grain varieties, are to a healthy diet. One such study published in 2018 in the medical journal The Lancet Public Health found that diets that got between 50 and 55% of their calories from plant-based carbohydrates like whole grains were associated with a lower risk of mortality than lowcarb diets that favored animal-derived protein sources. When buying carbs at the grocery store, shoppers can opt for whole-grain varieties, including whole-grain pastas, brown rice, and cereals. That won’t require sacrificing flavor, and it makes for a simple way to eat healthier every day. 2. Make a concerted effort to eat more fruits and vegetables. The American Heart Association recommends eating four servings of fruits and five servings of vegetables per day. That may sound like a lot, but it need not be daunting to incorporate all those healthy fruits and veggies into a diet. For example, add a serving of antioxidant-rich blueberries to cereal each morning. At dinnertime, allow vegetables to take up the most real estate on your plate. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention note that diets rich in fruits and

veggies can help people control their weight and may even reduce their risk for certain diseases, including cancer. 3. Kick added sugars to the curb. Avoiding added sugars is another way anyone, regardless of food preferences, can eat healthier every day. Healthy foods such as fruit contain natural sugars, and these don’t pose a threat to overall health; however, added sugars, which the Harvard Medical School notes are found in many foods and can include honey, molasses, and corn syrup, can increase a person’s risk for various conditions and diseases, including obesity, heart disease, and diabetes. Fruit contains fiber that slows the absorption of natural sugars, but the body digests added sugars much more quickly, leading to an uptick in blood sugar levels that can ultimately contribute to diabetes. Added sugars can be found in a host of foods and beverages, including some that aren’t generally considered unhealthy, like bread, breakfast cereals, and pasta sauces. When shopping, consumers should read nutrition labels and avoid products with excessive amounts of sugar. Eating healthy does not require people to abandon their favorite foods. A few simple adjustments can be all it takes to improve the nutritional value of one’s diet.

membership is one factor many people cite as a reason for not going to the gym. However, many health insurance plans now offer sweat equity rebates that reward policy holders for working out. Such rebates can greatly reduce the cost of a gym membership, if not remove it entirely. For example, a sweat equity program that offers a $200 rebate every six months for policy holders who exercise 50 times during that period can make a $30 monthly gym membership free. In that example, gym members would pay $180 for six months but get all of that money back if they work out 50 times in a sixmonth period. · Gyms can make it easier to diversify

one’s workouts. Exercise boredom is something even the most ardent fitness enthusiast can relate to. Exercise boredom refers to the disinterest that can develop over time as people do the same workouts for weeks, months, or years at a time. A home gym may not be spacious enough to include many machines, whereas gyms typically include enough machines and classes to allow people to diversify their workouts as often as they’d like. Working out at home may be convenient, but people looking to make exercise part of their daily routines may get better results by exercising at a nearby gym.

Preventive Care Involves Safeguarding Mental Health Preventive care is often looked at as the areas people need to focus on to protect their physical well-being. For example, a healthy diet and routine exercise are often viewed as lifestyle choices that can make people feel better physically. But taking steps to protect one’s mental health also is vital to a long, productive life. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) notes that positive mental health and mental wellness can have a profoundly positive impact on a person’s life. Positive mental health can help people realize their full potential, cope with the stresses of life, and make meaningful contributions to their communities. Learning to recognize the early warning signs of mental health problems can help prevent such problems from escalating. The DHHS advises anyone feeling these symptoms or recognizing these signs in others to seek help for themselves or their loved ones: · Eating or sleeping too much or too little · Pulling away from people and usual activities · Having low or no energy · Feeling numb or as if nothing matters · Unexplained aches and pains · Feeling helpless or hopeless · Smoking, drinking, or using drugs more than usual

· Feeling unusually confused, forgetful, on edge, angry, upset, worried, or scared · Yelling or fighting with family and friends · Severe mood swings that cause problems in relationships · Fixating on certain thoughts and memories · Hearing voices or believing things that are obviously not true · Thinking of harming oneself or others · An inability to perform daily tasks, such as taking care of children or getting to work or school Taking steps to protect one’s mental wellness is a vital component of preventive care. More information about mental health is available at www.mental health.gov.

ing information about what firsttime donors can expect when they arrive at donation centers. Registration Whether they schedule an appointment beforehand or walk in with no appointment, donors will have to register at the donation site before they can donate blood. Upon arriving at a donation center, donors will have to sign in and show some form of identification, such as a valid driver’s license. Donors also will be given some information to read before they can continue the process.

Medical history Donors will be asked some questions about their medical history. These questions may be answered online or in a private conversation. In addition, donors will submit to a general health check to ensure they’re fit to give blood. The donation process The Red Cross notes that donations typically take between 8 and 10 minutes. Donors will recline comfortably as a pint of blood is withdrawn. The recovery process The recovery process also is brief. After blood has been with-

drawn, donors will be offered a snack and a beverage. This recovery time typically lasts between 10 and 15 minutes. After that time is up, donors can resume their day. Testing The work continues after donors leave the donation center. Donated blood is tested and sent to a patient in need, potentially saving a life. And all it takes is about an hour of a donor’s time. Blood donors quietly save lives every day. Learn more about blood donations and how to donate at www.redcrossblood.org.

The Role Screening Should Play Before Starting An Exercise Regimen Exercise plays a significant role in disease prevention. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, physical activity helps to reduce individuals’ risk of chronic conditions, including Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, various types of cancer, and dementia. As vital as exercise is to a healthy lifestyle, many people simply are not getting enough of it. A 2018 report from the National Center for Health Statistics found that only about 23% of American adults between the ages of 18 and 64 are meeting the benchmarks for physical activity guidelines set forth by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Such figures illustrate the emphasis that many adults must place on getting more physical activity. But returning to physical activity after a long layoff or becoming physically active for the first time are not as simple as lacing up a pair of running shoes and hitting the road. In fact, the

American College of Sports Medicine notes the importance of pre-participation health screening for adults about to engage in physical activity after a period of inactivity. What is a pre-participation health screening? A pre-participation health screening is an examination conducted by a physician that looks for particular issues that may interfere with one’s ability to exercise. Doctors will likely ask patients about their medical histories and their family histories, as each of these factors can be used to determine whether a person is ready for physical activity or if any restrictions need to be put in place to protect them. What happens after a pre-participation health screening? Once a physician conducts a health screening, he or she will conclude if an individual can exercise and how much he or she should exercise. Adults who are cleared to exercise but have never been physically active or have gone years with-

out exercising will likely be advised to take it slowly at first. Doctors may provide specific exercise recommendations or refer patients to a sports medicine professional who can help them devise an appropriate workout regimen. Doctors may also recommend follow-up appointments to track patients’ progress. Such appointments can help people whose overall health has

improved after limited exercise ramp up the intensity of their workouts, which can help them continue on the course to a healthier life. Many people aspire to exercise more. In many instances, a pre-participation screening is a vital component for people looking to become more physically active after a long layoff.

The Importance Of Annual Checkups Nutritious diets and routine exercise are two hallmarks of a healthy lifestyle. Combining the two can lower people’s risk for various diseases and contribute to a high quality of life, but food and physical activity are not the only areas where people should focus in order to improve their chances of living long, healthy lives. Preventive care is important. One of the most effective principles of preventive care is to schedule an annual checkup with a

physician. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, routine health exams and tests can find problems before they start. During annual checkups, doctors may notice some red flags, such as high cholesterol, that men and women won’t detect on their own. These warning signs could be increasing people’s risk for disease and/or discomfort. Many of these red flags are undetectable without proper screenings, which is why annual check-

ups are integral to maintaining one’s health. Annual checkups also serve as a great time for adults to be screened for certain cancers. The American Cancer Society notes that cancer screenings are used to find cancer before a person develops symptoms. That’s a vital benefit of annual checkups, as cancers caught in their early stages are more easily treated. In addition, catching cancer before it has metastasized greatly improves

patients’ prognosis. Another reason to schedule annual checkups is that they make perfect opportunities for patients to discuss their family histories with their physicians. This is especially important for adults over 40, as age and family history are significant risk factors for a host of conditions and diseases. Physicians can recommend ways for patients to balance their risk, calming patients’ concerns and See Checkups pg 6

During winter, unforgiving temperatures can translate into an increase in hours spent indoors, whether at work or at home, and more time relying on devices to pass the hours. Spending more time watching television, playing video games, texting friends, or browsing the internet can lead to a condition known as “computer vision eye strain.” Eye strain also may be caused through intense eye use, such as driving long distances or engaging in activities that require close attention, such as crafting or reading. The American Optometric Association (AOA) says digital eye strain can result in various forms of discomfort, which increase with the amount of screen use. The most common symptoms include headaches; blurred vision; dry, watery, or burning eyes; increased sensitivity to light; and neck and shoulder pain. The AOA says viewing a computer or digital screen often makes the eyes have to work harder. The AOA notes this is different from reading a printed page. The letters are not as precise or sharply defined on screens, and areas of contrast can be muted. Also, the presence of glare and reflections on the screen may make viewing

difficult. Furthermore, the Mayo Clinic says people tend to blink less while using digital devices and view them at less-than-ideal distances or angles. Alleviating eye strain from digital sources involves making changes in daily habits or the environment. Taking regular eye breaks and looking at objects at different distances can help. The following tips may be helpful as well: · Adjust the lighting to reduce glare on screens. · Limit screen time as much as possible and engage in other activities. · Consider the use of artificial tears products to lubricate dry eyes. · Choose the right eyewear, and work with an eye professional to find products that can assist you. Some specialized glasses or contact lenses are designed for computer work. Investigate tintings and coatings that may aid in blocking harmful types of light. · Blink often to refresh the eyes. · Talk to a doctor if eye strain persists or changes in severity.

Donating blood is a selfless act. Perhaps because donating blood is often a simple, relatively quick process, donors may be inclined to downplay just how big a deal it is to donate blood, but blood donors save lives every day. According to the American Red Cross, every two seconds someone in the United States needs blood. To understand just how vital blood donors are, consider that, according to the Red Cross, a single car accident victim can require as many as 100 pints of blood. Many people give blood in response to tragedies like natural disasters, but prospective donors don’t need a special reason to donate. In fact, people who regularly donate blood help to ensure that supply meets demand. Donating blood for the first time can be a unique experience. The Red Cross offers the follow-

What Is Mindful Snacking?

The passion, care, and dedication that they provide to our beloved residents; is the daily inspiration that keeps driving us forward through each and every year.

Many people give little thought to the snacks that take up space on their pantry shelves, but are the foods people eat between meals worthy of more careful attention? Those who subscribe to the concept of mindful snacking would suggest they are. According to the International Food Information Council Foundation (IFICF), mindful eating focuses on slowing down and tuning in to the sensations of eating. One of the goals of mindful eating is to prevent unhealthy behaviors associated with food and eating. One such behavior is binge eating, which can have long-term negative consequences. The National Eating Disorders Association notes that as many as twothirds of people diagnosed with binge eating disorder, or BED, are clinically obese. Mindful eating can benefit anyone, including people who are maintaining healthy weights and not considered to be at risk of developing eating disorders. One of the questions people may have about mindful eating, and mindful snacking in particular, is how they can slow down and tune in to the sensations of eating when they snack. Working professionals tend to snack at the office, where it’s not always so easy to slow down and tune in to the foods they eat. In addition, food availability may dictate what people eat while away from home, which can lead to people eating unhealthy foods because that’s all that is available.

To everyone in the Nursing Department, Pharmacy, Social Work, Activities, Administration, Plant Operations, Therapy, Dietary, Laundry, Housekeeping; and of course our Volunteers, we send our greatest thanks and heartfelt wishes for a safe and happy holiday season!

While there’s no denying mindful snacking can be difficult, the IFICF offers these tips: · Assess your hunger. Learning to assess hunger can help people distinguish hunger from boredom. The IFICF recommends using a hunger scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being very hungry and 10 representing feelings of being stuffed. If you determine your hunger to be 1 to 4, then consider a snack. Anything between 5 and 10 and you might just be bored. When snacking, periodically pause to reassess your hunger and determine if you’re satisfied. This reassessment can help you avoid overeating. · Reduce distractions. Distractions can make it hard for people to recognize how much they have eaten. Avoid snacking

while watching television or using your smartphone so you don’t accidentally overeat. · Take small bites. Large bites also can make it easier to overeat. Small bites, such as one whole-grain chip at a time instead of a handful with each bite, can reduce the likelihood of overeating. · Let your senses savor your snacks. Using all of your senses when snacking can force you to slow down and notice flavors and aromas you might otherwise not be aware of. A more mindful approach to snacking can help people better appreciate their food and may help them avoid overeating. Learn more about mindful eating at www.foodinsight.org.

Tips To Get Children Excited About Brushing Their Teeth 118 Pleasant Acres Rd. • York, PA 17402

R052940

717-840-7100

Dental hygiene is an important component of a healthy lifestyle, but it’s an element youngsters don’t always embrace with open arms. Parents know that getting children, especially young children, to brush their teeth is not always so easy. In recognition of that, the American Dental Association (ADA) suggests the following strategies to make brushing teeth something children will look forward to: · Make it fun. Brushing teeth may not be considered a fun activity, but who is to say it can’t benefit from a little levity? The ADA recommends turning toothbrushing sessions into dance parties and/or sing-alongs. Youngsters might be so busy cutting a rug or listening to their mom and dad belt out a few hits that

they don’t even realize they’re cleaning their teeth at the same time. If singing and dancing aren’t cutting it, then incorporate another fun activity, like reading a child his or her favorite story, into daily brushing sessions. The ADA advises adults and children to brush their teeth for two minutes twice a day, so activities need not be too advanced. A fun activity that allows children to do something other than brush their teeth can be a great way to help them meet the “two minutes, two times” guideline. · Reward good behavior. Parents can reward youngsters who brush their teeth without incident by offering praise or allowing them to pick a bedtime book when brushing at night. · Put children’s favorite characters to

work. The ADA notes that many popular children’s television shows and books have stories about brushing teeth. Watch or read these stories together, then reference the stories and characters if youngsters are reluctant to brush their teeth. Parents also can find toothbrushes and toothpaste that feature children’s favorite characters to get youngsters more excited to brush. · Become a storyteller. Parents also can make up their own stories, explaining to kids how they can be superheroes who brush away the bad guys that cause cavities. · Brush alongside your children. Kids love to mimic their parents, so moms and dads can brush alongside their youngsters in the hopes they’ll follow suit.
