#FF Spring Cleaning for the Brain

Written by Nicole Kenny | Mar 18, 2016 7:03:00 PM

If you live in an area where
winter equates to cold and snow there really is nothing better than seeing your
first robin and hearing the twittering of birds in the morning. Spring is a time of renewal and growth. It’s a time to watch nature come alive with
budding trees and blooming flowers, but it’s also a time when we tend to shake
off the winter blahs. We feel alive and
want to refresh our lives. Your refresh
may come in the shape of purging closets to make way for your spring / summer
wardrobe, a spring tune up for your car and removal of winter tires, hitting
the gym to lose the extra pounds that somehow showed up or waking your brain
with a little education.

As noted in past blogs, the Teleclass
Education by Webber Training is an international lecture
series on topics related to infection prevention and control. The objective is
