As we head into summer, keep these tips in mind to beat the heat!

Hot weather can be more than uncomfortable, it can be dangerous. Before heading out in the heat, take a moment to run through these simple heat safety essentials.

Stay hydrated, limit your time in the direct sun when possible, and check in on family, friends, and neighbours.

If you or someone you know is showing signs of heat related illnesses, such as:

• Moist, warm, dry or hot skin
• Headaches, weaknesses, nausea, vomiting, and fainting
• Anxiety, dizziness or altered behaviour (irritable, aggressive, unusual)
• Rapid or shallow breathing

Call 911 in case of emergency. Our teams are out in the community and ready to help whenever needed.

Places to cool down and hydrate are available throughout the city:https://www.saskatoon.ca/sites/default/files/media/documents/Cool%20Down%20Locations_11x17_2026.05.26.pdf

Stay cool and stay safe, everyone! ☀️

Tick season is here. Make sure to check yourself, children and pets for ticks if you spend time in tall grass, brush or wooded areas. Visit the Government of Saskatchewan website at https://www.saskatchewan.ca/residents/health/diseases-and-conditions/lyme-disease to learn what to watch out for, and ways to protect yourself and family members.

Submit a photo of any ticks you find to https://www.etick.ca for identification which helps with provincial monitoring.

It’s National Physical Therapy Month! 💙

Physical therapy isn’t just about injuries...

It’s about helping you move through life with more ease, more confidence, and less limitation.

Whether that means getting back to sport, keeping up with your kids, or simply feeling more like yourself again—that matters.

Throughout May we’ll be highlighting different aspects of physical therapy and the many ways it can support you.

Comment any questions you have for our physical therapists👇
