Remembering Jerry Wasserburg (1927-2016) 3 A Free documentary to feature Music Festival The Siletz Bay Music Festival Documentary, directed by Florence City Council member Joshua Greene, will be screened at City Lights Cinemas, along with a Q&A with the director, on Tuesday, June 6, at 6 p.m., during a free public screening. The new documentary pro- vides an in-depth look at the Oregon music festival and how the power of music can uplift a community. Following the documentary, Greene will discuss his experi- ences in making the film, his plans on bringing parts of the festival to Florence with the Siuslaw Jam, and answer audi- ence questions. Greene first got involved with the Siletz Bay Music Festival when he was asked to film a couple of performances. He realized that just filming the routines of the festival didn’t really get to the heart of why it was important. So Greene embarked on making a full documentary about the festival. The festival itself started as a small concert to showcase jazz music, buthas grown to a full F RIENDS OF The Friends of the Florence Events Center announces the open application cycle for small grants for use of the Florence Events Center facility rental fees. Potential applicants may pick up an application from the Florence Events Center office or go online at www.eventcente r.org and download an applica- tion form. The festival organizers were able to bring about the Studio to Schools program, an initiative that funds music programs in schools. The program makes learn- ing music mandatory in the 6th grade, and with grants and donations, pays for musical instructor and instruments for the students. The program has since edu- cated more than 1,000 chil- dren regarding the impor- tance of the musical and theatrical arts. The screening will be held in conjunction with the Siuslaw Jam music celebra- tion, July 7 and 8, at the Florence Events Center.

Established ‘Stroke’ procedures can save lives Where: The West Woahink Lake Meeting Hall After Western Lane Ambulance District para- medics arrive at the local Emergency Department (ED) with a patient suffering a potential stroke, they immedi- ately report the patient’s med- ical condition to the nursing staff and ED Physician. Paramedics will often call in a “stroke alert” to the ED staff,, while still out in the field with the patient, in order to alert the ED so they can prepare for the patient’s arrival. This will also allow medical staff in the X-ray department to When: Thursday, June 8, 4 p.m. Come share stories about this remarkable Florence resident. VOICE YOUR OPINION!

In the majority of these cases, the patient will be brought straight from the ambulance to the CT Scan. Once the patient is settled in the ED room, the physician will begin a full examination and consider treatment options according to the results of the CT Scan, the patient’s medical condition, exam findings and other associated patient related information. Peace Harbor Hospital (PHH) Emergency Department Physician William Foster explains what he is concerned about upon examining the patient. “Is the patient exhibiting neurological deficits such as weakness on one side of the body, and slurred speech or dif- ficulty talking?” he asked. When examining the CT- Scan, doctor’s will review it for any indications of bleeding in the brain. “This will let us know if we can give a medication called TPA, which essentially breaks up a clot in an artery in the brain,” Foster said. If there are indications of bleeding in the brain, then TPA cannot be given because it will worsen the brain bleed because it is a general blood thinner. SATURDAY SUNDAY MONDAY JUNE 3 JUNE 4 JUNE 5 There is also a narrow win- dow of opportunity of time to give the TPA, and that three hours from time of onset, according to Foster. Once all the exams and treat- ments are completed at Peace Harbor Hospital, then the neu- rologist at a Regional Medical Center will be consulted for possible transference of the patient. Riverbend hospital in Springfield offers a neurology department, and many PHH are subsequently sent there, either by ground or air ambulance. This allows patients to receive additional critical mecial care in a specialized clinical setting.
