As many prepare for spending time with their families and relaxing over the holidays, medical experts want to remind you to stay safe this season. Dr. Terence Kolb, MD, of Gulf Coast Regional Medical Center, joined us in our studio for some advice on protecting your health.

He says to double check for hazards for children and also recommends keeping a list of personal medical information, such as conditions and current medications, close by in case of any emergencies.
