Time for a game of ‘Guess Who?' 🤔🔍 Can you figure out what this mystery profession is? Drop your guesses in the comments below!

This is exactly why we host EPIC Day (Emergency Preparedness in Communities) and our Disaster Day simulation — giving students hands-on experience in emergency preparedness, teamwork, and real-world response before disaster strikes.

Here's the next takeaway from a recent session on emergency response and disaster management.

One message was clear: preparation happens before the crisis.

Showing up in the moment isn’t enough. Training, coordination, role definition, skills training...they all matter.

Even basic things like CPR or Stop the Bleed can make a difference before professionals arrive.

Grateful for the nurses who bring comfort and care in every moment🩹. We see you, we appreciate you, and we celebrate you! Happy National Nurses Week!💉🩺

Happy Cinco De Mayo! Let's celebrate by playing IPE Loteria?!🙌🎉 Repost this on your story and mark all the things you have done! If you get 5 across, down, or diagonal we will DM you to come to the office and pick up a prize! Make sure to complete it by Friday!!

Great things in this galaxy are never achieved by a lone Jedi, but through the collaboration of a focused Rebellion; this Star Wars Day, let’s unite our strengths to conquer every challenge!

As a follow-up to National Public Health Week, we’re sharing a few takeaways from recent conversations with public health professionals and alumni. On Star Wars Day, here's today's takeaway:

Public health is collaborative by design.

No one takes on complex challenges alone. Not in a galaxy far, far away, and not in ours. It takes a squadron.

The work improves when you:

a) bring in different perspectives
b) ask better questions
c) share responsibility for the outcome
d) Fly an X-Wing (probably)

Seriously though, the strongest outcomes come from teams working together toward something bigger than themselves.

Stay in formation and May the Fourth be with you.
