HURRICANE KATRINA
FROM YOUTH P.O.V.
VFW HOST LAWNMOWER
POKER RUN
By: Kayla Emerson
Hurricane Katrina is a
very sad and devastating
incident. I wish I could be
there to help all of the homeless people. They have to be
very unhappy about all of
this, I know I would be! I am
just so very thankful that the
Lord has given me all that I
have. Here is a prayer, “Jesus in Heaven please help all
of those Hurricane Katrina
victims, please help them all
find homes, shelters, their
families, food and water and
please make sure they all turn
out to be healthy and well...
amen!”
And to everybody who
reads this, please try to help
out with this disaster. I have
donated a dollar to them, my
high school, Hicksville High,
has made over $1,900 to send
to help with Hurricane Katrina. Please help out! Just
think if this happened to you,
wouldn’t you want people to
help you?
The VFW Men’s Auxiliary
Post 5087 recently sponsored
their 1st annual Lawnmower
Poker Run on August 13,
2005, at the Antwerp VFW.
We had 18 entries from the
surrounding area, and raised
$310 for the Friends of the
Park. Participants ran around
the southwest side of Antwerp and had seven stops to
pick up their cards and return to the VFW hall to turn
in their cards, which was a
timed event. Fastest time was
6 ½ minutes; slowest time
was 55 minutes. Winning
1st place was Mark Moniger
with an ace high flush. 2nd
place went to Tony Delong
with a king high flush. Katie
Jackson of Antwerp won the
50/50 drawing. We had several other winners from nicest
tractor to surprised it runs,
with lots of others winning
door prizes. A great time
and a few laughs were had by
all, and are looking forward

BOOSTERS SPONSOR
CHICKEN BBQ
The Antwerp Academic
Boosters are sponsoring a
Port-a-Pit chicken BBQ before the football game with
Wayne Trace on Friday, September 23. Serving will begin
at 4:30 and end at 7:00. The
auditeria will be available for
those wishing to eat at the
school; carry-out meals will
also be available. There is a
minor cost of the ticket, and
this includes ½ chicken, two
sides, dessert, and a drink. A
ticket can be purchased from
any pride card holder, in the
elementary office, or from
Mrs. Detmon, the Academic
Booster advisor. There will
be a limited number of tickets
available to purchase at the
door, so we encourage you to
buy a pre-sale ticket.
The Academic Boosters is
a non-profit organization devoted to recognizing academic excellence and improvement in our junior and senior
high school. We currently
have 105 students in grades
8-12 who have a GPA of
3.25 or higher, which earned
them a pride card. A pride
card entitles the students to
several perks throughout the
year, including a monthly
doughnut bar, entry into a
monthly raffle, savings bonds
for seniors, and an end-of-the
year trip to Cedar Point. The
Boosters also help defray the
cost of the National Honor
Society Induction Ceremony.
As you can see, we need to
earn a substantial amount of
money through this BBQ to
pay for all of the special activities that we offer to these
deserving students. So come
to the school on the 23rd–the
chicken is delicious, you
won’t have to cook before the
game, and you’ll be contributing to a worthy cause. The
Boosters than you in advance
for your support.

Race And Chronic Pain
(NAPSA)—Many Americans
aren’t dealing with pain. Recent
studies show one in five chronic
pain sufferers has not seen a doctor
about the pain and only one in 20
patients has seen a pain specialist.
Chronic pain is about equally
distributed among Americans of
all races, according to the researchers. The American Pain
Foundation estimates 50 million
people in this country suffer persistent pain. However, while about
85 percent of Caucasians and
African Americans said they’d
gone to a doctor, only 70 percent of
Hispanics had. Hispanics are
more likely to try to treat chronic
pain themselves, particularly
those who speak Spanish at home.
“The remarkable finding that
about one-third of the Caucasians,
African Americans and Hispanics
who were initially contacted for
the study reported persistent pain
for at least three months during
the past year confirms the magnitude of pain as a national public
health problem,” said Russell
Portenoy, M.D., chairman of the
Department of Pain Medicine and
Palliative Care at Beth Israel
Medical Center in New York.
The survey results showed that
perceived low access to care correlated with being Hispanic or
speaking Spanish, being younger
or male, having low income or limited education, being unemployed,
and having financial concerns
that prevented pain treatment.
“This study validates what
most Latinos have known for a

long time—that lack of medical
insurance and proficient health
education along with language
barriers all impede access to care,
especially when it comes to pain
management,” said Venus Ginés,
CEO/Founder of Día de la Mujer
Latina, Inc. Ms. Ginés is also a
breast cancer survivor and has
been diagnosed with lupus, a
chronic inflammatory disease that
can affect various parts of the
body, especially the skin, joints,
blood and kidneys.
“While pain does not discriminate, it seems access to appropriate treatment does,” says researcher Ivonne Fuller. “By
identifying factors that can limit
access to pain care, studies such
as this one help demonstrate the
need for improved education and
health care services for minorities
in pain.”

Healthful Snacks The Whole Family Can Enjoy

never too early—or
too late—for parents
to set a good example
by establishing good
eating habits and
providing healthful
foods for children,

Paulding County Hospital’s chief financial officer
Rob Goshia, reviewed on-going efforts to upgrade PCH’s
computerized billing system
with the hospital trustees at
their recent board meeting.
“We are investigating options
to revise our bills,” said Goshia. “Our goal is to make the
bills as clear and as easy to
understand as possible.”
Goshia told the group
that the PCH-billing focus
group, which included several community residents,
had provided valuable input
on improving the format of
the hospital’s bills. “They offered several suggestions on
how to improve the format of
our bills. We’re confident we
can incorporate their suggestions,” Goshia added.
Goshia continued, whatever computer program is selected to generate the bills it
also will provide upgrades to
the payroll, medical records,
accounts payable, and materials management systems.
“In materials management,
we are moving toward barcoding. That would give us
the capability to take inventory on-line, at any time,” he
said. “The more efficient and
cost effective our business
processes are, the more opportunities we have to devote
our financial resources to providing the best in healthcare,”
Goshia added.
In his monthly financial
report, Goshia reported a net
loss for July of $27,228 and a
year to date profit of $165,856.
“The loss was primarily a result of lower than budgeted
revenue in outpatient surgery due to the delay in Dr.
Strawter’s coming on board,”
Goshia said.
The board approved upgrades to laboratory information systems. The new equipment will cost $11,354.
Hospital CEO Gary Adkins reported that Dr. William Strawter, PCH’s recently
employed general surgeon,
started his clinic on August
22. He is currently able to see
patients covered by Medicare,
Medicaid, Anthem, and Medical Mutual. “We are continuing work to get him enrolled
in additional insurance plans
so he can offer his skills to
an even larger portion of area
residents,” Adkins said.
Adkins added that Dr.
Strawter is preparing to offer a wound care clinic at the
hospital.

I am writing in response to
a letter I read in your newspaper about the “ignorance”of
driving far away to shop. I
just could not let this go by
with out giving my thoughts.
Our fighting men and women
through the ages has fought to
keep us free,we have freedom
to make our own decisions
in life and yes believe it or
not,even the freedom to shop
where we want to shop. I wish
people in this world would
stop trying to run others lives
and just make decisions that
effect their lives. I support local stores in our community,
but I also like to leave town
and shop. If there is ignorance
in this,oh well. I guess thats

Adkins’ report also included:
PCH is reviewing a contract to install an on-line
nursery on the hospital web
site as well as adding information about the new Financial Assistance Program and
a video tour of several areas
in the hospital.
The new Healthy Workplace Program continues to
progress with a plan for an
in-house health risk assessment submitted to the Program committee for review.
The assessment should be
completed by the end of October. Once the program is
operating successfully at the
hospital, it will be offered to
the other businesses in the
community.
Adkins attended a meeting
in August regarding the Bureau of Workers Compensation method of reimbursement
to hospitals. The Bureau’s
proposal is a cost-plus method of reimbursement. This
method is a financial positive
for the hospital because PCH
is a low cost provider.
PCH chief operating officer Randy Ruge shared the
architectural plans for the
installation of new general
x-ray and fluoroscopy equipment and the remodeling of
the treatment room with the
board. He also reported that
Dr. Strawter has already performed his first surgery at
PCH.
Board members also reviewed the:
Quarterly Quality Assurance Report;
Quarterly legal compliance audit; and
Most recent customer
survey by Press Ganey, Inc.
The survey showed a vast improvement in several areas of
customer services.
ANTWERP ELEMENTARY
PTO NEWS
By: Tianne Pendergrast
Antwerp Elementary PTO
Vice President
It is time for our PTO fund
raiser, Pizza Man, again this
year. Kickoff will be Thursday, September 15th and all
orders will need to be in by
Monday, September 26th.
Delivery of the the items will
be approximately three weeks
later and the money will be
due at that time for the items.
The money raised from
this fund raiser is used for the
many activities PTO provides
during the school year. PTO
only has one fund raiser a
year and this is it.
Pizza Man had been our
fund raiser for a number of
years and seems very well
received in Antwerp. We will
be selling many items such
as: pizzas, garlic bread with
or without cheese, cookie
dough, desserts, chocolate
and more.
If you were at the Open
House at school a few weeks
ago you may have tried some
of the goodies. Order your
favorites from your child or
from a neighbor child in the
Antwerp Elementary.
Our next PTO meeting
will be October 11th at 7:00
pm. Come and see what we
are doing for your child and
our school. It takes more than
a few people to make PTO
work. We still could use some
help on some of the event
committees, so let us know
if you would like to help with
one.
