The agency 4 provide many health care iervice for patient in their home. Tri-County Home Health Agency, providing skilled nursing and therapy wrvices in Gilliam, Morrow and Wheeler counties, recently announced that it pi unit to join the celebration of National Home Care Week. Nov. 28 -Dec. 4. This week has been set aside to pay tribute to the dedicated individuals throuKhout the country whose efforts a How some four million elderly, infirm or disabled individuals to receive the health services and social ser vices they need in the com forting surroundings of their own home. Sheridan Tarnasky, admin istrator of the local Tri-Omnty Home Health Agency said "We are pleased that the Congress and the president have chosen to honor our Swim Team Eastern Ore. Heppner Swim Team par ents voted at a meeting No vember 23 to join other East ern Oregon teams in the newly formed Eastern Oregon Swim Club The local club will be n-gistered as Eastern Ore gon Swim Club, Heppner Booster club, said a team spokesperson The advantage to swimmers in this new club she said, is that superior swimmers who may compete at statewide or regional meets can team up with swimmers from other Eastern Oregon towns to form relay teams. Also, if a club Is short of swimmers in an age group and is unable to make up a relay team for invitation al meets, swimmers from dif ferent towns can swim as an Eastern Oregon Swim Club relay. This gives all swim mers greater opportunity to compete, she said. In other business, the par ents were informed of the resignation of Linda Lucas as the club's vice-president. Nel son Connor was elected to replace her. The next swim team meet ing will be held December 9, 7:30 p m., at Gary Bruch's home, 220 Cannon St. At that time all current and prospec- Recount assures -Wilson seat on Irrigon Council Chester Wilson emerged the. winner of an Irrigon City Council spot after a recount last Wednes day broke a tie between Wilson and Douglas Howell.

We do our best to serve the elderly and the infirm of our communities, as do other organizations such as ours throughout the nation. It is our intention to continue to pro vide the skilled nursing ser vices and therapy services we presently have available to the highest quality of care." President Reagan signed into law the joint Senate and House Resolution creating National Home Care Week on October 14. The primary spoasors of the resolution were Senators David Pryor and Orrin Hatch and Con gressmen Claude Pepper and Leon Panetta. Senator Roger Jcpwn captured the spirit of the resolution when he said "There are thousands of to join Swim Club tive swim team members are invited to help with the selec tion of new swim suits for the 1983 season. Any school-age child interested in joining the "swim team is invited toattend themecting or call 676429 for more Information. families who are caring for elderly or disabled relatives who deserve this recognition. We In the Congress should take this opportunity to praise these hardworking Indivi duals. In addition, we should take a moment to thank the thousands of health care pro fessionals who provide the support services so essential to enabling families to remain together. Without this cooper ative effort, many elderly and disabled individuals would be needlessly forced into a nurs ing home or hospital." Statistics from the U.S. General Accounting Office (GAO) indicate that nearly 1.2 million people over the age of 65 currently reside in nursing homes and other institutions. GAO suggests that fully 25 percent of these people could be equally well cared for in their homes. Often times home care for this 25 percent is proven to be a much less financial burden to the family. Home care, however, is a great deal more than a cost effective form of treatment. As Congressman Pepper noted recently in an address to the National Association for Home Care: the providers of home care services place "dignity and the meaning of human life, and human health and happiness as their pri mary goals." Home care has become an increasing force In the United States health care system since the enactment several years ago of legislation provi ding for Medicare and Medi caid coverage for many home care services. Today home care agencies number nearly 5.000, with approximately 50 of these agencies, offering a variety of home services in Oregon.
