The 4th of July is a time for celebration, barbecues, fireworks, time with friends and family, and making great memories. At Alium Health, we want you to enjoy the holiday weekend while staying safe and healthy. Here are our top safety tips for Independence Day, plus a reminder that our Primary Care and IV Therapy services are available in both Scottsdale and Mesa to keep you feeling your best!

4th of July Safety Tips

1. Firework Safety:

  • Attend professional fireworks shows whenever possible.
  • If using fireworks at home, follow all local laws and safety instructions.
  • Keep fireworks away from children and pets, and never relight a “dud.”
  • Have a bucket of water or hose nearby in case of fire.

2. Sun Protection:

  • Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) every two hours, especially if swimming or sweating.
  • Wear hats, sunglasses, and lightweight, protective clothing.
  • Stay hydrated—drink plenty of water throughout the day.

3. Food Safety:

  • Keep perishable foods chilled until ready to serve.
  • Use separate plates and utensils for raw and cooked foods.
  • Wash hands before eating and after handling food.

4. Alcohol & Driving:

  • If you plan to drink, arrange a designated driver or use a rideshare service.
  • Never drink and drive.

5. Pet Safety:

  • Fireworks can be stressful for pets. Keep them indoors and provide a safe, quiet space.
  • Make sure your pets have up-to-date ID tags in case they get scared and run off.
