🎒 Back-to-School Germs Are Back! 🦠

New backpacks, new teachers, new routines…and unfortunately, new germs! 😷

As kids head back to the classroom, it’s common to see an increase in those not-so-fun school-year visitors:

🤧 Coughs & colds
🌡️ Fevers
👂 Earaches
😣 Sore throats & strep
👁️ Pink eye
🤢 Stomach bugs

Help your family stay healthier by encouraging good handwashing, covering coughs and sneezes, not sharing drinks or utensils, and keeping kids home when they’re sick.

And when those back-to-school germs make their way home, Ivy Creek Urgent Care of Lake Martin is here to help get your family feeling better and back to the routine. 💚

Because the only thing we want kids bringing home from school is homework! 📚😉
