As the hot weather of summer starts to cool down, many of those who own a swimming pool are preparing to winterize or take them down. Because the water used in them is treated with chemicals, it is important that they are drained properly.

Why is Pain Awareness Important?
With an increased focus on pain awareness this month, pain management care team members are dedicated to educating the community on the impact of chronic pain. The purpose of highlighting pain awareness is to instill a greater understanding among healthcare professionals, individuals, and families who are struggling with pain management. The same applies to the business community, legislators, and the general public, as pain is a serious public health issue.
