Health News from The Valley Health System

As women, we’re often guilty of putting ourselves last on the list for medical attention. Family members come first. But what better way to show your family that you care than to take better care of your health?

Ease the Discomfort of Sinus Inflammation

Does it seem as though you’re always coping with sinus pain?

Summer’s Bounty Can Help Prevent Diabetes

As many as 1 in 4 adults in the U.S. has higher-than-normal blood sugar levels that aren’t high enough for a diagnosis of diabetes.

Have a Safer Summer

Summer is a wonderful time to go outdoors with family and friends. Whether you’re enjoying a picnic, pool party or outdoor fun, these tips may help you stay safe and healthy.

Having Same-Day Surgery?

Don’t underestimate the importance of recovery following a same-day surgical procedure. Take these steps in advance of your scheduled surgery.

A Living Will Helps Communicate Your Wishes

Advance directives — like living wills and various powers of attorney related to healthcare — are an opportunity to tell healthcare professionals and family members your end-of-life care preferences.
