The Caroline County Department of Emergency Services will be offering free Hands-Only CPR training on Saturday, August 16th from noon – 6pm at their Summerfest booth, located at 1st and Gay Streets in Denton. The training takes less than 15 minutes and can empower you to save a life. According to the American Heart Association, CPR given immediately after sudden cardiac arrest can double or even triple a victim’s chance of survival, but only 32 percent of victims of cardiac arrest get CPR from a bystander. By becoming trained in Hands-Only CPR, you can help. Approximately 88 percent of cardiac arrests occur at home, meaning the life you can save is likely to be someone you love. the free training, ” says Dr. Jon Krohmer, EMS Medical Director for Caroline County. “In less than 15 minutes, you can learn how to save a life with HandsOnly CPR.” “As an EMS provider, my enemy is the time that passes prior to my arrival at the scene,” says Shawne Hughes, Senior Paramedic with the Caroline County Department of Emergency Services. “By knowing how to perform CPR until EMS arrives, you can help increase a victim’s chance of survival.” Styles & Haircuts Perfect Touch Everyone that takes the training will also be entered into a drawing for a grand prize.

He said he will find something he likes and then file it away to paint from later. By John P. Evans III “I have to have a photograph or a picture to paint from. I can’t just sit somewhere, set my easel up and paint,” said Greenly. Bill Greenly waited almost 85 years to take up painting. When he finally did, he became quite good, quite fast. Though he would never say it himself, he’s become somewhat like Caroline County’s version of “Grandpa Moses” “Grandma Moses,” a great American folk artist, died at age 101 in 1961, and was hailed for her painting of American scenes and for what could be accomplished later in life. Greenly, who turned 87 last month, may never be as famous, but has managed at his age to produce paintings worthy of mention. Unlike her, he has done so having taken up oil painting just two and a half years ago. His incentive to paint after so many years is what he terms as a “Ah Ha” moment. “One day a photograph caught my eye in the (Baltimore) Sun. It was a photograph of a barn in the snow from far away. I said to myself ‘I bet I can paint that’,” said Greenly in an interview from his First Street home in Denton recently, where he has converted what used to be his dining room into his “painting room” and created an in-home gallery of his works. He said he doesn’t consider himself on par with many of the local painters who are good enough to sell their wares. “I don’t paint to sell my paintings. I do it because I like it and I enjoy doing it,” he said. Greenly’s paintings cover all kinds of subjects from paintings of scenes in Germany and other European countries, to landscapes to animals, to local historical landmarks of Caroline County. “One subject I can’t paint is people,” he said. His paintings do have great detail, something Greenly said he now spends more time on. He said he doesn’t finish a painting in one sitting, rather over many sittings. “I’ll start by painting the general subject of the painting, then fill in the detail,” he said. “Then I will sit back and look at it overnight or over a few days, and I will note little details I want to touch up”. “The key for me is to get the color (he paints oils on small canvases) on the board, then save the detail for later,” he added. Greenly said he espeDenton resident Bill Greenly stands in the main floor foyer of his home on The current foray into First Street, where many of his paintings are displayed. By his own count, cially loves settings painting isn’t Greenly’s he says he has produced more than 230 paintings, each one a "one of a with barns and grand first, but his initial inter- kind" painting. Greenlee, who turned 87 in July, took up painting a little landscapes. Among his est 40 years earlier, never more than two years ago. personal favorites are a got anywhere, because rendering of Frank Lloyd he said, frankly, that he was “too busy” doing other things, Wright’s home “Falling Waters” and a picture of a horse with mostly traveling for his job with GMAC credit corporation. his head looking out of a window of a two-story barn. “That was a great job. It took me all over the world, to places I otherwise never would have seen,” he said. “But there wasn’t much time for hobbies like painting.” A hobby is what painting is to Greenly, though he says he has done “at least 230 paintings” since he started. Self-taught, except for a few pointers early on from Ridgley artist Joyce Zeigler, Greenly said it’s obvious to him the improvement he has made in two and a half years. “I’ve seen improvement from the time I began,” he said. “I pay more attention to detail than I did before and I’ve learned a lot of little things.” 8 “I don’t set a time of day when I paint or a period of time I paint. It just comes for as long as I feel I want to that day,” he added, saying when totaled together his paintings generally take four hours to paint. Greenly said he has given away about sixty paintings and doesn’t mind taking on a project for a friend “if they have a picture and if I think I can handle it.” He continues, however, to paint at such a pace that his house is covered with the results of his abilities – from the main foyer in his home, to the stairs leading to the second floor, to his living room and the sunroom in the rear of his house that overlooks the Choptank River. “I am sure one day I am going to run out of room, but for now painting is something I get a real satisfaction out of. It is something I wish I had started earlier,” he said. After all, he said, “for whatever reason, I’ve seen it as a gift given to me. I don’t claim to be great at it, but it’s given me great enjoyment and a sense of accomplishment.” Recently Greenly has donated a number of his paintings of Caroline’s historic buildings to the county’s historical society, some as covers for invitations to their annual fundraisers or for special events; others are being sold by the historical society to raise funding. “I do the pictures for them for free, I don’t want to be paid. What they do with them is fine with me,” he said. His pictures from around the county have included the old Denton school where the Culinary Center is now, the Octagon gazebo in front of the county courthouse, and several paintings associated with Linchester Mill. Ask Greenly specifically why he started painting at such an advanced age and he won’t (and can’t) give you a specific reason. “I wasn’t looking for a hobby … that one picture (in the Sun paper) was what set me to try it. From there, it was something I did for my own enjoyment. It still is,” he added, saying that whether people like his works or not is not really important to him. “People like different things, tastes are different. I’ve never asked for publicity for my painting. It’s still just a hobby to me,” he added. “But if they like what I do, or ask me to paint something for them, I will do it as a gift.” 15945 Rd Rd 15945Henderson Henderson Goldsboro, MD Goldsboro, MD 410.482.7110 410.482-7110 800.452.9034 800.452.9034 410.482.9029 FAX 410.482.9029 FAX ezgo21636@gmail.com New &New Used ezgo21636@gmail.com & Used Options: Rear Seats Paint, Options: Rear Seats, Paint, Windshield, Rims & Tires, Windshield, Rims &Boxes Tires, Lights, Tops, Utility Lights, Tops, Utility Boxes We can rebuild your cart’s engine, install new batteries and fix major We can rebuild your cart’s engine, install new and minor problems. batteries, and fix major and minor problems.

Disputes can arise when family and caregivers disagree on what is best for an aging family member because of differences of opinions, principles or interests. Debates over the care of parents, elderly relatives, or family matters can quickly turn to animosity, which, if left unresolved, can destroy relationships forever. These conflicts can be very deep seated and personal, and difficult for those close to the situation to discuss and resolve. Unfortunately, not all parents plan ahead to avoid this family tragedy. Parental action granting authority to a certain child can be viewed as favoritism by the other siblings, and feelings can be deeply hurt. Family members might have good suggestions as to what is best for an elderly parent, yet the sibling in control might not respect their ideas. Sometimes the elderly feel it is best to grant decisionmaking power to a family member who lives nearby. But that person may not always be the best equipped or have the sincere interests of the senior at heart. Legal power of attorney given to one individual can leave others who love that elderly person without any say or ability to help. The scope of conflicts associated with the elderly can range from health care decisions, to accusations of insufficient help for the caregiver, to questionable transfer of material goods. This can lead to hostility, irreparable relationships, inadequate care for the elderly, and even elder abuse and exploitation. Sometimes the only recourse seems to be expensive and divisive legal action, which many family members wish to avoid. Elder mediation can help. The Mid Shore Community Mediation Center (MSCMC) offers seniors, their families and caregivers the ability to resolve these conflicts with a win-win outcome. With the help of highly trained mediators, participants work together through a step-by-step conflict resolution pro10 cess. Mediators are completely neutral and non-judgmental, and do not offer suggestions. They facilitate a process of listening and gathering information that allows participants in conflict a chance to be heard and understand each other. Together, the disputants build a list of topics they wish to make plans about, brainstorm ideas, and develop solutions collaboratively to meet their needs. At the conclusion, participants have the option of having a written agreement, or they may decide a verbal agreement is sufficient. Mediation has proven to be a highly successful conflict resolution method. MSCMC offers this service at no cost to residents of Talbot, Caroline and Dorchester counties. The Center sched- ules the mediation at a location and time that is convenient for the participants. In addition to elder mediation, they provide conflict resolution services for many types of disputes, including but not limited to: business disputes, neighbor relationships, parent/teen discussions, landlord/tenant issues, community issues, parenting plan and custody agreements. MSCMC also provides conflict management education for youth and other groups. If you have questions or wish to schedule a mediation, contact Mid Shore Community Mediation Center at 300 Talbot Street, Suite 206, Easton, MD 21601, call 410-820-5553, or email mscmc@ goeaston.net.

E nvoy of Denton Homestead Manor Earns Status as Music & Memory Program Provider Music and Memory is an internationally acclaimed training and certification program based on research in the fields of neurology, psychology, geriatrics, nursing, and general medicine. Over and over, studies are finding a deep connection between music and the brain. While concerts and singalongs are enjoyable, the music featured is broad. The impact of a personalized playlist combined with a personal music device (iPods), has great potential. Using the same methods taught to our staff, researchers and other caregivers have witnessed increased levels of alertness and socialization, improved appetite and sleep patterns, decreased pain and agitation and many other benefits. We will be turning to families as well as residents to ensure that the music on an individual’s playlist’ is meaningful to them. We will also have the ability to include favorite old time radio shows, podcasts, and even personal messages from loved ones. No other senior care provider on the Shore offers this program - we are excited to be the first! “...have witnessed increased levels of alertness and socialization, improved appetite and sleep patterns, decreased pain and agitation and many other benefits”.

At the same time, college tuition costs have climbed an average of 3% to 6% per year, depending on whose data you are looking at and whether it is a public or a private institution. Obviously the amount of student loan debt has far surpassed the average cost of a college education, meaning more and more students are relying on debt to finance their career dreams. This “bubble” of student loan debt has served as a change agent for many young people’s lives by allowing them to take advantage of career opportunities and higher incomes that a higher education provides. Again, depending on the source and year of study, the difference in annual income between high school and college graduates is between $18,000 and $30,000 per year. The difference between those getting a two year college degree and a four year college degree is reduced by more than half to $4,000 to $12,000. When you consider all the doors that get opened with a two year Associates Degree, you could argue that the additional two years it takes to get a Bachelors Degree just isn’t worth it. 10% of the 4.7 million borrowers who began paying back their student loans from October 2010 to September 2011 had defaulted on those loans by September 30, 2012 according to Edvisors. com. Basically these 10% were unable to find a job with a salary sufficient to repay the debt they incurred to get the education necessary to pay the debt, or to put it in layman’s terms, “the juice was not worth the squeeze.” Keep in mind that these graduates of 2010 and 2011 actually began their college careers four years prior in 2006 and 2007 at a time when the economy was rather robust. The economic recession did not hit until 2008 with the mortgage meltdown and the collapse of the stock market in September 2008. The lesson learned by the college class of 2010 and 2011 is a lesson for everyone looking for higher education to move them to jobs with higher salaries. Even though the job market looks good right now things can change rather quickly.

Sure, we are hearing that things are getting better economically, in some areas of the country. But those that have been encouraged by the promise of a brighter future, if they just pay for it, are graduating into a world of limited opportunity and the prospect of 10 years or longer of budget breaking payments. According to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, 64% of college graduates had student loans in 2004 totaling $18,600. In 2014, 70% of college graduates had student loans totaling $33,050, over an 80% increase. This is a monthly payment of $375 for 10 years at average rate of 6.5% for most Federal Student Loans. If the loan is from a private lender, the rate could be as high as 8.5% and the payment goes to $409. But what does all of this mean? How can anyone get the job or career they aspire to without getting a post secondary education? What can a young person in today’s United States of America do to gain as many advantages as they crawl through the money pit that is Higher Education? First and foremost our teenagers in high school need to take responsibility for their future. Sounds like so much Blah, Blah Blah, and something we have all heard at one time or another from a parent growing up. So what is so different today from when we were growing up in the 60’s, 70’s 80’s and even 90’s? Why do kids today have to be more focused on what they are going to do for a living and how that livelihood will provide the resources necessary to achieve the American Dream? Things are different now. No, they really are different. Thomas Friedman, the author of “The World is Flat”, has said that “in today’s job world, if a person or worker continues to do what they have always done, they will not get what they always got, they will get less”. Rather profound statement about change that basically hits home. The point is that we must all strive to do more in the jobs that we do, and for those not yet in the workforce permanently they must do more with their education and training for a career. You must take advantage of all the educational opportunities afforded you and, when you do, you must do better than average. If you don’t, there are millions of others throughout the world who are doing better than average, and when you get into the real job world you will quickly realize that you are not competing for jobs with people just like you. You are competing with people with different ethnic backgrounds here, as well as people with different ethnic backgrounds all over the world. Everyone is competing in a global marketplace that is as close as the internet and overnight delivery. The internet has truly flattened the world as Thomas Friedman has written. So what do student loans have to do with my future you may ask? I say it has everything to do with your future if higher education is on your radar screen. Use the baggage and burden of repaying student loans after graduation as motivation to get good grades. Be involved in your community and apply for every scholarship and grant available. There is a gold mine of scholarship and grant money out there waiting for you to apply for it. Get as much free scholarship money as you can put your hands on. Find time to work and learn to save for your education. Do your homework and look at several different options to get the education you want and need. Consider dual enrollment when in high school. Every class you can take while in high school is one less you have to pay a lot more for after you graduate. And if you are able to get one semester out of the way it could save you $10,000 or more in tuition at a four year school. There has been a proliferation of online classes offered by hundreds of Colleges and Universities. When selecting this option make sure the course you are “Your Mortgage Consultant Since 1985” Purchase or Refinance 115 E Dover St. Ste 3 - Easton, MD tolbert@baycapitalmortgage.com NMLS 182844 www.baycapitalmortgage.com C.

I see online courses as the game changer for many colleges and universities. It allows you to go to school when you have the time. And you don’t have to travel or live in campus housing. As much as college costs have increased, the flow of easy money to pay for these costs through student loans has increased at a much higher pace. This has increased through students, and in many cases, parents, borrowing more than actually necessary to pay for college expenses. In my mind, it is almost criminal for any lender to lend more to someone than they actually need to pay for the item being purchased. But in student loan lending it is a common practice for some eligible borrowers to take on more debt than they actually need. Bottom line, if you need to borrow for your education, borrow only what you need, not a dollar more. And the last thing to consider that will dramatically lower your college expense is to go to Chesapeake College, or another Community College, for two years, and transfer to a four year school if you wish. While attending a community college, live at home and work a part time job. If you can attend college and pay as you go and be one of the 30% of college graduates without debt upon graduation you will be well on your way to a future with one less worry and one less debt. 17 Tide Table Caroline 4-H Members Exhibit Small Pets Predictions for Tuckahoe (See below for other factors) Local Daylight Time August Date 1 Fri Photo: Sandra Todd, Cynthia Lednum, Gabrielle Parsley, and Tabitha Lednum are showing off one of their 4-H exhibits at the Eastern Shore Spring 4-H Livestock Show. Gabriele Parsley, Tabitha Lednum, Cynthia Lednum, Sandra Todd and Jarrett Keys recently participated in state-wide 4-H spring livestock shows where they exhibited their rabbits and cavies. All of these 4-H members have the responsibility to daily care for their pets. In addition they have learned about breeding and raising young rabbits and cavies to improve their stock and sell to raise money for future needs. Every 4-H member who chooses to raise any livestock learns life skills relating to the cost of feed, veterinarian costs and much more. Most importantly they learn responsibility as it is their job to feed, water and care for their animals.

Payments as low as $76 month 23 Knowledge Is Power T hroughout history mankind has committed itself to a relentless pursuit of knowledge, freedom and liberty. Within the search, it has been discovered that without knowledge the possibility of living free with liberty is impossible to achieve. This concept is not only factual with history bearing the burden of proof, it is the truth, and truth does exist. Without truth there could never be a lie in which we know is not the truth. It hinges on itself. Knowledge is the key. This is our mission to teach the citizens of Caroline County what the main purpose of civil Government is; To secure our God given right, if in fact our rights come from God. Does the civil government have the right to legislate law to take away what God has given us? The answer is no. There is a fixed standard of law and government that the founders used to form our constitution. It was assembled based on revealed law which is found in God’s Word with the understanding that municipal law must never contradict revealed law found in the Holy Bible, and if it does, it is not law. Five jurisdictions of law are laid out in our constitution, God being at the head of all government. Self being next, we get the right to govern ourselves from God. Family government which, by the way, happens to be the one who retains jurisdiction over marriage and children. Church, which does not need a 501c3 to be tax exempt. The government does not have the legal right to tax churches. The last in line is municipal government, which is instituted to secure or protect these other jurisdictions defined in the Holy Bible as well as the constitution of these United States. If we as a people wish to survive, we must learn to return to the one who gave us our rights and seek out some understanding that our founders held so sacred.

By John P. Evans III MSCFV has also put into place an eightweek support group for victims who are clients of the organization as well as victims who have been referred to MSCFV by another agency. Respected as the leading organization providing crisis and transitional services to victims of family violence in the five Mid-Shore counties, the Mid-Shore Council on Family Violence has for years served as the central access point for assistance and education on domestic violence within Caroline, Dorchester, Kent, Queen Anne’s and Talbot counties. MSCFV’s mission is to offer opportunities to break the cycle of violence through intervention and prevention by providing shelter, counseling, services and advocacy for victims and abusers; and by changing society’s attitudes and systems which promote and permit such violence. Most services provided in the past had been offered on a “one-shot” basis, with not all domestic violence victims receiving all the services available to them. Though MSCFV clients were offered a variety of services, they were not required to use any of the many services designed to take them from the day they left the abusive relationship to the point where they could begin a new life financially and emotionally free of abuse. Also, there was not an organized connect between the many transitional services. During the past year - as the organization’s 2014-2015 Fiscal Year began in July - that has changed for the better. With a restructuring of staff and a reassessment of its services, MSCFV has begun a new transitional program that will offer a complete program for those who have left an abusive life behind them. “In the past, we always had the crisis program, legal program and transitional program, just in general, and so we would refer a client who was in a shelter to another person who was in legal, to another person who was in transitional and have those pieces,” said MSCFV’s long-time executive director Jeanne Yeager. “What we found through our data was that clients were using our services on a one-shot basis. They weren’t all staying with us long-term. “There was a gap between crisis and legal, and transitional (services). So what we started looking at was how we could help rural victims of domestic violence from crisis to self-sufficiency with these pieces in between,” added Yeager. “What we added on now is that we have a case manager structure.” To fulfill this need, MSCFV now has two full-time case managers on staff who will work directly with the clients Sandwood Corporation New Home Builders / room Additions Contact: Maynard Woodworth Office: 410-634-1515 Cell: 410-490-0152 email: sandwoodhomes@gmail.com MHIC 51265 MHBR 826 Sandwood Corporation Ridgely, Maryland 34 “The support group will help them to transition from being a victim to being a survivor on to self-sufficiency,” said Yeager. The support groups consist of eight weekly 90-minute sessions which include 60 minutes of educational discussion and 30 minutes of training in stress management. Participants must attend the first 60 minutes of each session to complete the course. Groups will be limited to 10 persons each. Topics included are Dynamics of Domestic Violence, Post-Separation Tactics (of the abuser), Budgeting and Finance, Children and Domestic Violence, Emotions and Healing, Empowerment and Caring for Me, Beliefs about Violence and Relationships, and Healthy Relationships. In some cases, MSCFV hopes to be able to assist those reaching self-sufficiency to attain initial housing “to get them on their way.” “Our data now shows that 91 percent of the victims who go through our transitional housing now go on to permanent housing,” said Yeager. “We have put all the pieces together so that we’re invested in clients now as long as we can be, which is up until two years”. “This is all offered to them,” said Yeager of the MSCFV’S clients. “We are encouraging them to get from being a victim to being a survivor. We’re hoping (our clients) will see the benefit of the organized curriculum to them.” The support groups will be offered in all the counties beginning in September. MSCFV has also established a computer resource lab in its Denton headquarters. The lab will give clients a place to complete paperwork and to do other work needed to be done on a computer, and will also add a language lab to teach English to non-English speaking persons, as well as Spanish to staff members. Funding for this lab came through a grant from the Maryland Legal Services organization. The $5 burger is BACK Other funding for the transitional program was received from the Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, the Marjorie Cook Foundation and from Verizon Hope Line Funds. The commitments received from these groups made it possible for the new restructuring. Join us on Thursday’s from 5:30 PM until 9 PM Yeager said MSCFV can now offer a continuum of services to clients, all from in-house staff and services. “We have always had name recognition but most people thought we were just a shelter. In truth, a majority of our clients are non-shelter clients,” Yeager emphasized. “Our new structure helps people to understand better the breadth of what we do and to really understand everything that Mid-Shore does … that we’re the experts and understand what rural victims need.” Another step forward for MSCFV has been its expanded social media presence through internet postings, an improved interactive web site and a greater presence on Twitter and Facebook. Through its social media sites, MSCFV can now make daily posts of local and national stories about domestic violence and offers links to other sites from domestic violence support groups. MSCFV also participated in one of the largest social media efforts underway today, the “NO MORE” campaign. The “NO MORE” campaign features advertisements featuring well-known celebrities offering greater awareness to the public about domestic violence and sexual assault. Yeager said audience engagement through posting of relevant information “has increased in such a positive way that people have started commenting on and sharing our posts.” “We have fans that span from as far as Canada, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Africa, South America and Europe,” she added. Yeager offered some statistical informa- Regular Grille Hours: Monday 11 AM - 6 PM / Wednesday 11 AM - 6 PMish (Lunch) / Thursday 11 AM - 9 PM (Lunch, Casual Dinner with Burger Specials Friday 11 AM - 9 PM (Lunch and Dinner) Saturday 11 AM - 6 PM ish (Lunch) Sunday 9 AM - 6 PM (Breakfast and Lunch) www.carolinecountryclub.com 410-479-0373 24820 Pealiquor Rd, Denton, MD tion concerning victims of domestic violence. Typically, most victims of domestic violence are between 23 and 44 years, she said, adding that victims often face significant challenges due to limited financial resources. Only about 40 percent are employed and about one-fifth of the victims lack any source of income when they come to MSCFV. Data shows that 25 percent of MSCFV’s clients come from Caroline County. Ninety-four percent of family violence victims are women. Only 20 percent are African American and just 6.5 percent are Hispanic; the rest are generally white. Most victims have minor children. Most commonly, MSCFV clients experience abuse from their spouse or significant other and the relationships are often long-term, with 40 percent of the relationship being five years or longer. Yeager said that through the establishment of the new in-house transitional program, MSCFV has been able to gain the community and regional support to successfully acquire the funding from both existing donors and new ones that it needs to keep the organization financially sound. She said that staff and the board of directors have worked as a team to restructure the organization and the way it does business. “I want to plug our staff,” Yeager said. “I have seen this create an energy among our staff, which has been very supportive throughout his change ... and the efforts of our Board of Directors, which has worked as a team with me and the staff. “Because of the board’s involvement and commitment, Mid-Shore is coming out of the economic downturn better than ever,” added Yeager. 35 Marriage Licenses Lisa Renee Pritchett, 45, Federalsburg, and Rodney James Medford, 51, Same Laura Jean Wyatt, 25, Greensboro, and Jonathan Allen Crites, 24, Same Wendy Brooke Breeding, 24, Harrington, DE. and Tyler Matthew Wyatt, 25, Same Katrina Ashley White, 27, Owings Mills, and Marcus Lee Ragsdale, 33, Same Katelyn Ann Thomas 25, Denton, and Jesse Daniel Koch, 26, Same Reyna Perez, 28, Marydel, and Eleazar Morales, 30, Same Jenny Lynn Meister, 31, Frankford DE, and Rashieme Lamar McFadden, 31, Denton Wh Anna Mary Edwards, 27, Easton, and Shawn Paul Smith, 35, Same Mabel C Carney, 55, Denton, and Louie Franklin, Sr 76, Same Carrie Lynn Febbraro, 38, Henderson, and Todd Anthony Segan, 40, Same Lakesha Shantaye, 36, Federalsburg, and Mark Lewis Price, Sr. 44, Same Call for your back-to-school haircut!

Make sure family members know what to do and where to go. Hurricane Season began on the first of June. The National Weather Service predicts a normal number of hurricanes and tropical storms this year. The Caroline County Department of Emergency Services urges all residents to prepare their family for the possibility of these storms. Tropical Storms and Hurricanes bring immense rainfall, exceptionally strong winds, major inconveniences, and the possibility of damages and flooding. There are simple precautions everyone can take for their family’s safety. • Have a contact outside the area for everyone to call if your family becomes separated. Develop a Plan Plan in advance what your family will do in an emergency. Include a communications plan, a pet plan, address sheltering-in-place, going to Emergency Shelters and the possibility of evacuation. Discuss how these storms could affect your family.

Prepare an Emergency Kit Have an emergency supply kit which will help you and your family survive for several days. Think about the basics of survival: fresh water, food, clean air and warmth. When the electric goes out you may not be able to prepare food or obtain fresh water– have extra non-perishable food and water (1 gallon a day). Periods of these storms occur during darkness so have flashlights and extra batteries. The following are basic items every kit should include. • Infant formula and diapers • Radio, battery-powered or hand crank (NOAA Weather Radio) and extra batteries • First Aid Kit • Whistles to signal for help Dr. John P.

Prevent water from leaking into your house. Stay away from objects producing flying glass. Stay in a lower-level comfortable room away from large windows. Using your common sense can increase safety and security. Help your pets stay safe, we don’t want them to suffer. After the storm hits – stay indoors - do not drive. Do not take risks. Take special precautions and wear appropriate shoes and clothing, you may need long sleeve shirts and pants. Be Informed Knowing what to do during an emergency is important and may make all the difference when seconds count. Be prepared for the unexpected. Being prepared means staying informed prior to and following a tropical storm or hurricane. Check all types of media – Web sites, newspapers, television, radio – for national and local information. The Department of Emergency Services will provide information on such things as shelter openings and evacuation orders. Emergency Services has information packets to help you prepare, call us at 410-479-2622 or come by the office at 7 North First Street in Denton.

School Starts Soon-Is Your Child Fully Vaccinated? Submitted By: Elaine Cowgill, Caroline County Health Department Immunization & Lead Outreach School-age children, from preschoolers to college students, need vaccines. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has online resources and tools to help parents and doctors make sure all kids are up to date on recommended vaccines and protected from serious diseases. Make sure your children are up-to-date on vaccines before sending them back to school. Get your children to the doctor if you discover they need Making sure that children of all ages receive all their vaccinations on time is one of the most important things you can do as a parent to ensure your children’ s long-term health -- as well as the health of friends, classmates and others in your community. If you’re unsure of your child’s school requirements, now is the time to check with your child’s doctor, your child’s school or your health department. That way, you can get your child any vaccines he/she needs before the back-to-school rush. Disease Outbreaks Still Happen It’s true that some vaccine-preventable diseases have become very rare thanks to vaccines. However, outbreaks still happen. For example, data from 2012 show that more than 48,000 cases if whooping cough (pertussis) were reported in this country and many more Caroline County Health Department 403 South 7th St. / Denton, MD 21629 410-479-8000 Mental Health Services 606 Sunnyside Ave. Denton, MD 21629 410-479-3800 Addiction Services 104 Franklin St. Denton, MD 21629 410-479-1882 • • • • • • • Services by Appointment or Walk-in: Adult Immunizations HIV Screening/Testing Sexually Transmitted Infection Screening/Testing Pregnancy Testing Emergency Contraception Family Planning Emphasis on Abstinence Classes (After school programs in middle/high schools) Medical Assistance Accepted.

During that year, 20 deaths were reported--the majority of which were in children younger than 3 months of age. Outbreaks of pertussis at middle and high schools can occur as protection from childhood vaccines fade. Making sure your children stay up-to-date with vaccinations is the best way to protect your communities and schools from other outbreaks that can cause unnecessary illnesses and deaths. During the early years of life, your children need vaccines to protect them from 14 diseases that can be serious, even life-threatening. Parents who choose not to vaccinate their own children increase the risk of disease not only for their children, but also for other children and adults throughout the entire community. For example, vulnerable newborns too young to have received the maximum protection from the recommended doses of vaccines or people with weakened immune system, such as some people with cancer and transplant recipients, are also at higher risk of disease. Flu vaccines are recommended for kids in preschool and elementary school to help keep them healthy. In fact, all children six months and older should get flu vaccines. Getting all of your children vaccinated--as well as other family members and caregivers--can help protect infants younger than six months old. Ask your family doctor or nurse about getting flu shots or the nasal spray to protect against flu. Older children need vaccines, too! Of course, everyone older than six months of age is recommended to receive a yearly flu vaccination and older children are no exception. It’s important to know that flu can be serious, even for healthy young people. So older kids should get at least one flu vaccine (the shot or nasal spray for healthy kids) every year. As kids get older, they are more at risk for catching diseases, like menin gococcal meningitis, so they need the protection that vaccines provide. The recommended immunization schedule is regularly updated to include new vaccines and reflect current research. It may have changed since your child was first immunized. Specific vaccines, like HPV, which helps protect against certain cancers, are recommended to be given during the preteen (11-12) years. If your preteens or teens haven’t already gotten their vaccines, they should get caught up as soon as possible. For other diseases, like whooping cough, the protection from vaccine doses received in childhood wears off over time. That’s why 11 and 12-year olds are also recommended to get the booster shot called Tdap. Teens--and adults, too--who have not gotten Tdap should get this booster as soon as possible. Tdap is a version of the DTaP vaccine given to infants and young children. It’s Not Too Late Getting every recommended dose of each vaccine provides children with the best protection possible. If a child misses a shot, it can be difficult to figure out the best way to catch up. To help, CDC has a Catch-Up Immunization Scheduler on line (https:vacscheduler. org/) that shows parents and healthcare providers the best options forgetting children 6 years of age and younger back on schedule. You can always check with your child’s doctor or local health department as well. State of Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene have NEW school vaccination requirements. Beginning school year 2014, new vaccination requirements will be in effect. Kindergartners must have two doses of Varicella vaccine. Incoming 7th graders must have a dose of Tdap and MCV4 prior to school entry.

Studies even show a link between healthful eating and longevity. “As we age, the body becomes less efficient at absorbing some key nutrients. Appetite and taste can suffer from loss of sense of smell and taste or from side effects of medications. Bad teeth can make some foods difficult to chew or digest,” said Arthur Hayward, MD, a geri- atrician and the clinical lead physician for elder care with Kaiser Permanente’s Care Management Institute. “So choosing foods carefully is smart.” Here are five tips to help you get the nutrition your body needs: 1.Avoid empty calories. 2.Foods with empty calories may contain very few vitamins and 45 1.minerals. “Convenience foods,” such as packaged snacks, chips and sodas, are common sources of empty calories. Avoid the “bad” carbs — foods that have white flour, refined sugar and white rice. We moved Keep the Beat • Choose nutrient-rich foods. • Eat a variety of foods. The more you vary the foods you eat, the more vitamins, minerals and other nutrients you get. For example: • Eat lots of fruits and vegetables — Choose fresh, frozen or no-salt canned vegetables and fruits in their own juice or light syrup. ...to better serve our clients!

They are also in green leafy vegetables (spinach, kale, collard greens) and tofu. • Include foods high in vitamin B12 — After 50, the body produces less gastric acid and absorbs less B12, which helps keep blood and nerves vital. B12 is found in milk, meat, poultry, fish and eggs. • Eat high-fiber foods — This includes fruits, vegetables, cooked dried beans and whole grains. 2.Drink plenty of fluids. Drink plenty of fluids — enough so that your urine is light yellow or clear like water. Fiber and fluids help with constipation. 3.If your appetite is poor. Try eating smaller meals, several times a day, instead of one or two large meals. Eating while socializing with others may help your appetite. You might also ask about changing medicines. Medication can cause appetite or taste problems. 4.Eat soft foods. As we approach our senior years, chewing food is sometimes difficult. Choose low-sodium canned vegetables or cooked fruits and vegetables. These are often softer. Chop or shred meat, poultry or fish. 46 Add sauce or gravy to the meat to help keep it moist. For healthy recipe ideas, check out Kaiser Permanente’s Food for Health blog at https://foodforhealth.kaiserpermanente.org.
