Staying Healthy in Challenging Times –

As we begin the month of April, the state of the public’s health is present and foremost in our minds. There is no denying the signifi cance of the current health crisis, and we want take this time to let the community know Public Health is making every eff ort and utilizing all resources available to protect the health of Ventura County residents. As we look at this next week, when National Public Health Week is being observed (April 6-12), and to the future, we know the work of public health is not done yet.

Everyone deserves to live a long and healthy life in the community where they live, and to make this possible, we must work together to fi nd solutions to the causes of poor health and disease risk among individuals and within communities. By working together, we can fi nd solutions and resources to build healthier communities and, eventually, achieve the vision to become the healthiest county in the nation.

And, as we all adjust to and manage our lives during the new coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis, we are reminded of our own health and that of our family and loved ones, and are encouraged more than ever to stay healthy and resilient. Practices such as social distancing and staying-at-home are new to most of us. The current circumstances might be making it diffi cult to keep your old routines, but there is still so much you can do to stay healthy during this time. Here are some tips that will help you stay on track with your healthy lifestyle goals, improve your emotional well-being, and promote a safe and healthy living environment:

As we make our way through these challenging times, practicing healthy behaviors such as these will help us feel better physically and mentally. Staying on track now means you will not have to start over later, and you will be able to look back and be proud of all you have accomplished. Public Health wants to, even during these diffi cult times, encourage and support you in fi nding ways to stay healthy. Stand with us in celebrating National Public Health Week, April 6-12, and in moving toward building healthy communities!

abril 2020 Nota para Su Salud

Como mantenernos saludables en tiempos de incertidumbre y retos -

Al comenzar el mes de abril, el estado de la salud pública está más que nada presente en nuestras mentes. No se puede negar que tan signifi cativa es la crisis de salud en la que estamos viviendo. Queremos darles a saber que Salud Pública está haciendo un gran esfuerzo para utilizar cada recurso disponible para proteger la salud de los residentes del Condado de Ventura. En los días cuando se observa la Semana Nacional de Salud Pública (abril 6-12), y hacia el futuro, sabemos que el trabajo de salud pública aún no ha terminado.

Todos merecen vivir una vida larga y saludable en la comunidad donde viven. Para que eso sea posible, tenemos que trabajar juntos para encontrar soluciones a las causas de una salud precaria y los riesgos de enfermedades entre una y todas las comunidades. Al trabajar en equipo, podremos encontrar soluciones y recursos para construir comunidades sanas y eventualmente realizar la visión de ser el condado más saludable en la nación.

Y, al adaptar y manejar nuestras vidas durante la crisis que el nuevo coronavirus (COVID-19) conlleva, nos recuerda sobre nuestra salud, la de la familia y la de nuestros seres queridos, y hoy más que nunca animarnos a mantenernos saludables y tenaces. El distanciamiento social y el de quedarnos en casa son nuevas prácticas para muchos de nosotros. Las circunstancias de hoy estarán haciendo más difícil mantener las rutinas anteriores, sin embargo aún hay mucho por hacer para seguir saludable durante este tiempo. Aquí hay algunos consejos que le ayudaran con sus metas de estilo de vida saludable, mejorar el bienestar emocional, y promover un ambiente sano y seguro donde vivir:

Al continuar con estos tiempos difi ciles, el practicar comportamientos saludables nos ayudara a sentirnos física y mentalmente mejor. Al mantenerse fi rme con su plan de salud quiere decir que después no tendrá que comenzar de nuevo y que podrá ver hacia el pasado con orgullo por lo que ha podido cumplir. Aun en estos tiempos inciertos, Salud Publica lo anima y lo quiere apoyar en encontrar maneras para estar saludable. ¡Con su apoyo celebraremos la Semana Nacional de Salud Pública, del 6 al 12 de abril, y seguiremos creando comunidades saludables!

Visite www.vcemergency para informes y noticias sobre COVID-19. Llame al 2-1-1 con pregustas sobre apoyo y recursos locales.

Question: How can I make blood glucose monitoring as painless as possible?

Answer: The American Associa on of Diabetes Educators recommend these steps:• Choose a meter that requires a very small blood

sample.• Use the thinnest lancets possible (33 gauge or

higher). Use a new one each me. • Prick the sides of the fi ngers. Not the ps or the

center of the fi nger pad.• Use the 3rd (middle) and 4th (ring) fi ngers on each

hand and rotate your sites.• Keep your hands clean, moisturized and healthy.

Pregunta: ¿Como hacer el control de glucosa en sangre lo menos doloroso posible?

Respuesta: La Asociacion Americana de Educadores de Diabetes recomiendan estos pasos: • Elija un medidor que requiera una muestra de sangre pequeña (0.5 microlitros o menos).• Use las lancetas más fi nas posibles (calibre 33 o mayor). Cada vez use una nueva.• Pinche los lados de los dedos, no la punta o el centro de la yema. • Use el dedo mayor o el anular de cada mano y vaya rotando de lugar.• Mantenga sus manos limpias, hidratadas y saludables.
