2025 Statewide Wellness Calendar
Monthly Newsletter & Live Webinar Links
August marks the end of summer vacation for many across the state, and Florida families are preparing for back-to-school season, football season and more. Now is the perfect time for annual checkups for your entire household and for making sure your kids are up to date on their vaccinations. To make it easier for you to know which preventive care you and your child need, review Florida Blue’s 2025 General Wellness Guidelines for the whole family (linked below). It includes your child’s immunization schedule.
Support for caregivers
In Florida alone, there are over 2.7 million family caregivers1 providing care each year to family members or friends. A caregiver is anyone who helps take care of someone, whether it’s a child, an aging adult, or someone who is sick or who is living with a disability. If you know a caregiver who needs support, encourage them to visit FloridaBlue.com/Caregiver. If you’re a caregiver, join our Florida Blue Facebook online support group – Caregiver Connections.
