An estimated 10 million Americans suffer from seasonal affective disorder (SAD), a condition that can significantly impact daily life, mood and overall well-being. Winter-patterned SAD is more common due to shorter daylight hours. Therefore, this disorder is especially prevalent in individuals living in northern regions, where daylight is limited for extended periods and is less common in those residing in sunnier climates such as Florida.
Bluffton EMS Department provided the following run report for January 2025: Total 47 calls, 31 Medical Calls, 2 Motor Vehicle Crashes, 10 Fire Calls, 4 Mutual Aid Calls.
