• Mayo Clinic Radio: Summer safety / adults and play / salmonella and food safety

Summertime is here, and the Fourth of July holiday is fast approaching. Many kids are out of school, and it’s time for outdoor activities and family vacations. Summer activities such as biking, swimming, boating or riding a four-wheeler can be a lot of fun. But these activities also require precautions to stay safe and healthy.

On the next Mayo Clinic Radio program, Dr. Luke Wood, a Mayo Clinic emergency medicine physician, will share tips for keeping safe this summer. Also on the program, Dani Johnson, a physical therapist with the Mayo Clinic Healthy Living Program, will discuss how adults can benefit from play. And Dr. Nipunie Rajapakse, a Mayo Clinic infectious disease specialist, will explain how to avoid salmonella and keep food safe in the heat.
