To help keep you and your family, friends
and neighbors safe on Memorial Day weekend and all summer long, here are our
top safety tips.
Don&rsquo;t
forget your sunscreen this weekend
If you spend time in the sun, be sun
safe! Use sunscreen of an appropriate SPF and make sure to reapply as
necessary, especially if you are swimming or sweating. Drink plenty of water to
stay hydrated and to keep cool. And don&rsquo;t forget your eyes &ndash; wear a hat and
sunglasses!
Stay
hydrated and drink responsibly
While you&rsquo;re enjoying outdoor activities
and the warm weather, it&rsquo;s easy to be hit by dehydration&mdash;and most people don&rsquo;t
see it coming. Becoming dehydrated might occur faster if you&rsquo;re taking certain
medications or partaking in outdoor activities like biking, running or
swimming. It&rsquo;s important to make sure you&rsquo;re keeping up with your water intake.
Use
BlueCare Anywhere if you need to see a provider 
Whether
you are staying home or traveling this holiday weekend, Blue makes it easy to
connect with a provider from anywhere. You have access to online doctor visits 24/7
with <a href="https://bluecareanywhereaz.com/landing.htm">BlueCare
Anywhere.</a> Telemedicine is often more affordable
and convenient than the emergency room or urgent care facilities. 
&nbsp;
We
hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful holiday weekend! As always, Blue
is here for you.
