The new monitor will replace one of ive aging monitors, Battalion Chief Jeff Adkins said in a news release, allowing the district to focus on securing funding for the remaining monitors. The monitor will be placed in the district’s irst-responding advanced life support ambulance. “Last year, we responded to almost 3,400 emergency medical calls,” Adkins said. “Having this monitor could literally affect thousands of lives.” The donation was made through TransCanada’s Gas Transmission Northwest Pipeline. Gas Transmission Northwest has operated a natural gas pipeline in the Hermiston area since 1961. Rick Duncan, Regional Director for TransCanada, said in a statement that the companies understand and appreciate the role that irst responders play in a community and wanted to support that. “We believe in supporting the communities where we have pipelines because thriving communities are good for everybody,” he said.

Children made pizzas using English mufin halves, tomato sauce, low fat cheese and an array of colorful vegetable toppings to choose from. “We want them to know that there are healthy snacks available, that they have options,” Cobb said. “One of the things that kids can really do to improve their diets is just eating more vegetables.” HHS freshman Anahy 90s BRIEFLY Brownie the teddy bear goes into surgery for a broken femur at the teddy bear clinic at the Family Health and Fitness Day at Hermiston High School. were “x-rayed” on an over- head projector their human companions were handed a photo of a real x-ray to give to a staff member so that they could diagnose the broken bone, treat it, and send the patient out the door with an individualized care plan.

Low 16° in Walden, Colo. HERMISTON Dozens of health care clinics, itness companies, nonproits and other Umatilla County agencies teamed up Saturday to promote health and wellness in Hermiston. The Family Health & Fitness Day was back after a two-year hiatus, and drew a steady crowd to Hermiston High School throughout the day. One draw might have been the free loaf of multi- grain Dave’s Killer Bread from Portland that everyone was given as a healthier alternative to processed white bread. Other free samples came from booths that lined the walls, offering free merchan- dise, information, healthy snacks, lu shots and health screenings. Helena Wolfe of the Area Agency on Aging was advertising health-promoting programs such as Tai Chi for Better Balance. The class is free at the Hermiston Senior Center and helps avoid painful falls by improving core strength and balance. “It’s gentle, it’s fun and anyone can do it as long as they can walk in under their own power,” she said. Wolfe said she was pleased to see such a large turnout for the event and hopes that people walked away with information that could help them and their families lead healthier lives. “It’s getting people aware that there are programs in place — and these programs are all free — that can help them improve their health,” she said. In another gym Good Shepherd Health Care System employees hosted the “teddy bear clinic” to walk children through the procedure of going to the emergency room. Children picked out a teddy bear and named it, giggling as nurses proclaimed “Batman needs an x-ray” or “Brownie broke his femur.” Once the bears 50s National Summary: Showers will retreat to the coastal Northeast, while downpours linger along the Gulf and southern Atlantic coasts today.

In another part of the building, Amy Coven of the Oregon Health Insurance Marketplace was helping educate people on their health insurance options. “The biggest thing is that open enrollment starts Nov. 1, so we want people to know they need to start logging in and looking at health plans, because they’ve changed a lot in the area,” she said. Coven said the Family Health & Fitness Day was a perfect opportunity for health-related organiza- tions to reach community members. “There is a lot of free assistance available to people locally,” she said.
