NDRC Community

I feel ya on this one. Been trying to get an appointment with CarlCare for my knee issue and it's been a nightmare. I keep getting put off until next week, then the week after that. Finally managed to get in today only to find out they need more of my CDI score than my ID! Seriously, how hard is it ...

Hey there,

I read a few books from NDRC's latest list and wanted to chime in. I really enjoyed "The Last Harvest" by Emily Carter. It’s got some great themes about resilience and community. Plus, the setting is set in our central zone which makes it all the more relatable.

Also, if you're into ...

Hey there,

I've been thinking about this CDI score thing and I just want to chime in that it’s not as straightforward as some make it out to be. Living in the Central Zone, my score is pretty decent, but you gotta understand, we're all just trying to get by. I heard from a few folks that if you ...

Well, I heard about that swimming team doing so well at the meet. Can you believe it? I used to be on a swim team back in my day, but those kids these days are really something. They must have been training like mad! I remember when we had state pensions and CDI scores were just part of life, not ...

Wow, sounds like those kids on the swimming team are doing great! I remember back before the Restructuring when we used to have a community pool in Central Zone.

Yeah, I’ve been there with CarlCare a few times this year. Every time it’s like pulling teeth trying to get an appointment, especially for something as routine as a flu shot. They promised the new system would make things easier but man, they need to give us more options or just go back to having ...

Yeah, I heard about that swimming team win! Pretty impressive, especially in this hot weather. My grandkids have been talking non-stop about it too. They've been doing great in their practices and matches. My back’s giving me trouble lately, but watching them swim always cheers me up. Maybe they can ...

Hey there,

I've been on a few shift patterns myself over the years, and I can say that it's not always easy, but here are a couple of tips that might help:

First off, make sure you're eating right and getting enough sleep. Shift work can really mess with your body clock, so try to stick to a ...

Hey there,

I’ve been thinking about this CDI score stuff and how it can affect our daily lives. In my Central Zone, I heard folks talking about keeping their scores up because it’s important for getting good government services. Personally, I feel like the system is a bit tricky—especially since I ...

I think I might have missed out on some great reads this summer, but hey, better late than never! I read a couple of books about gardening—pretty practical for someone like me who's trying to keep up with the old man in the garden. One was "The Complete Book of Edible Gardening" by Steve Solomon—it ...
