YOUTH GROUP PLANTS THE POT |
|
Have you seen this in your neighbors yard? Over the past few weeks a pretty “pot” has appeared in some people’s yards. The Youth group was selling insurance for $10 to not have the pot placed in their yard. If you didn’t get insurance and the pot appeared, you then had to pay $15 to have it removed and placed in another yard. All proceeds went to World Hunger. So far the pot has been sighted in the yards of Pastor Pat & Glenn Barb & Mike Hoover David & Melinda RoyScott & Pam Krebs Tom & Patti Wysocki Pastor & Bonnie Wysocki Larry & Brenda Linebaugh (...they are filing a suit as they had insurance) Mark & Jamie Tome Joan & Don Naylor Will you be next???

A NOTE FROM OUR PARISH NURSE |
|
Dear Family in Christ, May/June 2010
I am stepping away from my normal format this month. I was at a Parish Nurse seminar on 4/16/2010. An eight hour seminar on trauma is mentally grueling on a nurse much less anyone else. Actually it was about Injury Prevention but we learned the reason why prevention is so very important. Injury is the leading cause of death in people up to the age of 44. Overall it ranks 4th among causes of death. Death rate increases after the age of 75. One in three people who fall over the age of 65 will die. Fifty percent of hip fractures never go back to their home. Motor Vehicle Crash has the statistic of 1 death every 12 min. Sadly, the statistics that were used were 15 years old. However, York Hospital Trauma Nurses said the statistics grow every year. They commented on the increase in violence in the world today. Then we had to pick workshops 3 for am and 3 for pm. They were as follows:
Safe Cribs Traffic Jeopardy Preventing Falls in the Older Population Gun Safety Home Safety Suicide Assessment in Faith Community Distracted Driving TSI (Trauma Scene Investigation) Internet Safety Older Adult Safety Home Safety Wheeled Sport Safety These were 40 min. workshops which there is material I can loan from York Hospital and do 1-2 hr. seminars for the congregation if there should be any interest. I was a very informative seminar.
I will be back for blood pressures on May 16, 2010.
Sincerely
Annie Baile, R.N. , Parish Nurse |
