The holiday season is in full swing. Here in the U.S., many of us will be preparing turkeys and all the trimmings next week. As a special Thanksgiving-themed Tips & Tools, we dug up some contacts you can call in those frantic last moments of food preparation. Happen to forget how long it takes to thaw your 16 pound turkey? No problem. Call the experts at Butterball Turkey Hotline (800-288-8372) or Foster Farms Turkey Help line (800-255-7227) — even on Thanksgiving Day. Concerned about how to safely store your leftovers? The USDA Meat and Poultry Hotline is also open (888-674-6854).

Unlike Butterball and the USDA, we will be closed on Thanksgiving Day. However, you can visit our online resources page for access to tip sheets, white papers, and more. There, you'll find useful information ranging from working with limited English proficiency (LEP) patients and witnesses to selecting the right translation vendor for your company.
