Brandon  Cares  considers  a  needle  exchange  program  like  Middlebury’s By  LEE  J.  KAHRS BRANDON  â€”  There  were  two  impressive  guests  at  the  regular  Bran-­ don  Cares  meeting  Monday  night,  and  they  each  offered  some  optimism  and  advancement  in  Vermont’s  war  on  opiate  addiction. 7KH ÂżUVW WR VSHDN ZDV 7KHUHVD Vezina,  the  Harm  Reduction  Pro-­ gram  Manager  for  Vermont  Cares,  the  state’s  largest  AIDS  service  or-­ ganization  that  administers  a  syringe  exchange  program. Vezina  explained  that  the  goal  of  9HUPRQW &DUHVÂś PRELOH DQG ZDON LQ needle  exchange  program  is  to  help  NHHS DGGLFWV VDIH IURP GHDGO\ GLVHDVH and  infection  caused  by  using  unsani-­ tary  syringes. Vezina  is  based  in  St.  Johnsbury  but  travels  the  state  operating  a  mo-­ bile  needle  exchange  out  of  her  car,  including  the  last  two  years  in  Rut-­ land,  and  more  recently  in  Middle-­ bury.  Brandon  Cares  co-­founder  Sue  *DJH VSRNH WR 9H]LQD ODVW \HDU DERXW the  program  coming  to  Brandon. “Since  Brandon  Cares  reached  out  WR XV ODVW \HDU ZH NQHZ WKDW %UDQGRQ ZDV D SODFH ZHÂśG OLNH WR SXW RXU IR-­ cus,  here  in  this  community,â€?  Vezina  said. 7KH ZD\ D QHHGOH H[FKDQJH ZRUNV is  the  addict  brings  all  their  used  sy-­ ringes  to  the  exchange  and  gets  a  1:1  replacement  of  new,  sterile  syringes  LQ UHWXUQ :KLOH LW PD\ VRXQG OLNH D program  aimed  at  enabling  drug  use,  it  is  called  harm  reduction.  Addicts  won’t  get  clean  until  they  are  ready  to  get  clean,  and  reusing  dirty  needles  H[SRVHV WKHP WR GLVHDVHV OLNH $,'6 DQG +HSDWLWLV & DV ZHOO DV VNLQ DQG septic  infections  that  can  be  fatal. “If  we  can  help  that  person  who  is  using  to  be  healthier  and  in  a  safer  space,  that  might  be  the  one  thing  that  saves  them  from  something  worse,â€?  Vezina  said. But  Vezina  explained  that  Vermont  Cares  has  also  stayed  in  step  with  the  state’s  opiate  crisis  by  becoming  more  than  just  a  needle  exchange,  providing  treatment  options  and  counseling  for  clients  who  are  in  the  very  early  stages  of  recognizing  their  addiction. Vermont  Cares  also  distributes  Narcan,  the  opiate  overdose  antidote.  Vezina  said  there  are  a  few  Bran-­ don  residents  who  currently  use  the  needle  exchange  in  Rutland,  and  that  it  would  be  easy  for  her  to  stop  in  %UDQGRQ HDFK ZHHN ZKHQ VKH WUDYHOV from  Rutland  to  Middlebury  admin-­ istering  the  mobile  exchange. A  former  addict  herself,  Vezina  ZDV DVNHG DW ZKDW SRLQW GRHV VKH refer  the  needle  exchange  clients  to  treatment.  It  is  anonymous,  with  cli-­ ents  assigned  numbers.  No  names  are  used. Âł:KHQ WKH\ DVN ´ VKH VDLG VLPSO\ “About  10  percent  of  our  clients  go  to  recovery.  We  believe  that  many  of  the  people  have  left  the  program  and  gotten  treatment,  but  I’ve  also  had  people  who  have  passed  away.â€? Brandon  Cares  is  a  communi-­ ty-­  based  volunteer  group  that  was  formed  in  2013  to  help  opiate  addicts Â

in  Brandon  and  their  families  through  ride  sharing,  education,  outreach  and  support.  The  group  has  become  an  ac-­ WLYH SDUW RI 9HUPRQWÂśV KXE DQG VSRNH model  of  opiate  addiction  treatment  and  recovery  in  Vermont.  Hubs  are  the  recovery  centers  in  Rutland,  Bur-­ lington  and  other  larger  towns,  and  WKH VSRNHV DUH WKH ORFDO GRFWRUV DQG addiction  counselors  who  treat  local  addicts  once  they  get  out  of  rehab  and  try  to  stay  clean.

POSITIVE  OUTLOOK  A  renowned  addiction  researcher  and  psychologist,  Dr.  Richard  Raw-­ son  was  also  on  hand  at  Monday’s  Brandon  Cares  meeting  to  weigh  in  on  the  state  of  addiction  in  Vermont. Rawson  is  the  retired  Co-­Director  of  the  University  of  California-­Los  Angeles  Integrated  Substance  Abuse  Programs  and  former  Professor  Emeritus  at  the  UCLA  Department  of  Psychiatry,  in  which  he  has  been  a  member  for  more  than  20  years.  He  KDV OHG JURXQGEUHDNLQJ UHVHDUFK LQ the  areas  of  methadone  treatment  for  heroin  addiction,  cocaine  and  meth-­ amphetamine  addiction,  HIV  and  GUXJ XVH DQG RQH RI WKH ÂżUVW VWXGLHV on  long-­term  heroin  use,  following  addicts  over  40  years  from  the  Viet-­ nam  Era  to  present  day. Rawson  has  led  addiction  research  and  training  projects  for  the  United  Nations,  the  World  Health  Organiza-­ tion,  and  the  U.S.  State  Department.  He  was  most  recently  involved  in  a  re-­ search  project  studying  the  effects  of  exercise  on  recovering  opiate  addicts. So  why  did  Rawson  retire  to  Sud-­ bury?  Well,  he’s  from  here.  Rawson  was  born  in  Whiting  and  graduated  from  Otter  Valley  Union  High  School  in  1966.  He  earned  his  bachelor’s  degree  and  doctorate  in  psychology  from  the  University  of  Vermont. “I  got  tired  out  after  40  years  of  all  WKDW DQG PRYHG EDFN WR 9HUPRQW ´ Rawson  explained  at  Monday’s  meeting.  â€œBut  I  also  happened  to  run  into  this  heroin  problem.â€? 5DZVRQ VDLG 890 DVNHG KLP WR help  out  with  some  opiate  addiction  research  projects,  including  an  evalu-­ DWLRQ RI 9HUPRQWÂśV KXE DQG VSRNH treatment  model.  Rawson  said  he  is  impressed  with  how  his  home  state  has  addressed  the  opiate  epidemic. Âł<RX VKRXOG NQRZ WKDW 9HUPRQW LV about  three  years  ahead  of  anywhere  else  on  this,  and  you  should  be  very  proud  of  that,â€?  he  said.  â€œOver  the  last  two  years,  Vermont  is  the  only  New  England  state  where  overdose  deaths  have  gone  down.  There  is  no  place Â

board  and  the  ANTA  representatives  are  Tuesday,  Oct.  25,  and  Monday,  Nov.  7;Íž  both  meetings  to  start  at  6  p.m.  in  the  Vergennes  Union  High  School  library.  These  meetings  will  provide  an  opportunity  for  public  comment.  Consistent  with  all  school  board  meetings,  the  board  negotia-­ tions  committee  may  occasionally  go  into  executive  session  to  discuss  sensitive  matters. The  board  appreciates  the  hard  work  that  our  teachers  do,  and  understands  that  today’s  schools  and  teachers  have  to  address  more Â

than  just  education;Íž  they  also  handle  issues  concerning  social  services,  health  services,  nutrition,  and  family  support.  The  board  hopes  to  provide  Ă€H[LELOLW\ IRU WHDFKHUV WR PHHW student  needs,  to  provide  appropriate  opportunities  for  all  students,  and  to  address  student  personalized  learn-­ ing  goals.  7KH ERDUG UHFRJQL]HV WKH GLIÂżFXO-­ ties  faced  by  many  of  our  families  and  community  members:  50  per-­ cent  of  our  students  receive  free  or  reduced  lunch,  healthcare  costs  have  (See  Letter,  Page  5)

Harvest  (Continued  from  Page  1) third-­generation  beekeeper  Charles  Mraz  of  Middlebury’s  Champlain  Valley  Apiaries,  describing  what  made  2016  such  a  good  year  overall  for  bees  and  honey  production. Mraz  said  that  the  reduced  rain-­ falls  this  past  spring  were  just  right  to  produce  beautiful  clover,  whereas  wetter  weather  in  spring  and  early  summer  tends  to  favor  grasses.  When  the  grasses  zoom  up  in  wet-­ ter  years,  the  clovers  don’t  bloom  as  SUROLÂżFDOO\ Clover,  said  Mraz,  provides  the  source  of  around  70  to  80  percent  of  the  honey  gathered  in  Addison  County. Rainfall  was  down  as  much  as  50  percent  in  Addison  County  from  spring  to  mid-­summer,  according  to  National  Weather  Service  meteo-­ rologist  Andy  Nash,  while  from  mid-­ summer  to  now  as  much  as  75  per-­ cent  less  rain  than  typical  has  fallen.  Mraz  and  beekeepers  Andrew  Munkres,  of  Lemonfair  Honeyworks  in  Cornwall,  and  Kirk  Webster,  of  Champlain  Valley  Bees  and  Queens  in  New  Haven,  all  reported  a  good  to  above  average  harvest  of  honey  made  from  spring  and  summer  blos-­ ANDREW  MUNKRES  CHECKS  on  some  of  his  Lemonfair  Honeyworks  bees  that  are  preparing  for  winter.  Munkres  reported  a  great  summer  soms.

Dementia  (Continued  from  Page  19) her  place  when  recounting  stories,  lost  track  of  time,  lost  motivation  and  eventually  lost  the  will  to  carry  on.  It  was  a  devastating  condition  to  witness  and  though  the  family  tried  to  treat  Gram  with  love  through  the  end  it  was  confusing  and  frustrating  nonetheless. So  naturally,  when  the  opportunity  arose  to  experience  the  dementia  simulation,  I  jumped  at  it.  Allenson  was  waiting  for  me  in  an  empty  room  at  the  Residence  at  Otter  Creek’s  Middlebury  facility  with  several  chairs  and  a  table  with  a  bunch  of  props  on  it.  Julie  Fuller,  a  staff  LNP  who  specializes  in  dementia  care,  was  WKHUH WRR REVHUYLQJ WKH H[SHULHQFH IRU WKH ¿UVW time  and  curious  how  someone  in  my  position  would  respond. I  sat  in  one  of  the  chairs  and  listened  as  Allenson  explained  the  routine.  First,  she  handed  me  a  small  rubber  rectangle  that  was  Ã€DW RQ RQH VLGH DQG KDG VSLNHV VWLFNLQJ RXW RI the  other  side.  I  was  to  place  it  inside  my  shoe  â€”  spike  side  facing  my  foot.  This  spikey  insole  was  meant  to  distract  in  a  similar  manner  as  everyday  foot  pain,  neuropathy  or  arthritis  often  does  for  elderly  people.  Ouch. Next,  I  was  given  a  pair  of  large  cotton  gloves.  According  to  a  handout  Allenson  gives  at  each  of  these  simulations,  arthritis  is  part  of  daily  life  for  up  to  80  percent  of  the  population  over  the  age  of  65.  Dexterity  is  often  compromised,  as  is  feeling  and  function.  Then  came  the  glasses.  As  someone  who  has  never  had  trouble  seeing  (or  even  been  to  the  eye  doctor)  putting  on  a  pair  of  oversized  glasses  painted  on  the  inside  with  dark  purple  nail  polish  almost  made  me  instantly  panic.  I  strained  to  see Â

COURTNEY  ALLENSON,  RESIDENT  engagement  director  at  the  Residence  at  Otter  Creek  retirement  community,  explains  how  people  with  dementia  can’t  absorb  all  the  information  thrown  at  them,  so  caregivers  need  to  choose  their  words  carefully  and  act  with  extra  forethought.  Independent  photo/Trent  Campbell

How  to  help  isolated  seniors (MS)  â€”  The  elderly  population  is  on  the  rise  in  many  countries.  Advancements  in  healthcare  and  a  growing  emphasis  on  healthy  lifestyles  means  people  are  living  longer  than  ever  before.  Age  is  often  accompanied  by  wisdom,  but  PHQ DQG ZRPHQ PD\ DOVR ÂżQG WKDW IHHOLQJV of  isolation,  loneliness  and  depression  may  also  settle  in  as  they  grow  older.  The  Journal  of  Primary  Prevention  published  â€œA  Review  of  Social  Isolation,â€?  which  observed  how  social  isolation  has  been  linked  to  numerous  detrimental  health  effects  in  older  adults.  Some  of  these  ailments  may  include  increased  risk  for  mortality,  rehospitalization,  falls,  and  dementia.  Individuals  looking  to  give  back  to  their  communities  may  want  to  consider  helping  VHQLRUV LQ WKHLU DUHD $OWKRXJK LW FDQ EH GLIÂżFXOW to  see  seniors  with  diminished  physical  or  mental  capabilities,  the  rewards  of  interacting  and  helping  seniors  can  be  immeasurable.  There  are  plenty  of  ways  to  help  seniors  avoid  LVRODWLRQ DQG FRQWLQXH WR OLYH IXOÂżOOLQJ OLYHV •  Provide  transportation.  A  Place  for  Mom,  a  senior  housing  placement  resource,  notes  that  lack  of  adequate  transportation  is  a  main  cause  of  social  isolation  among  seniors.  Voluntary  or  necessary  cessation  of  driving  makes  getting  to  and  from  appointments  or  even  recreational  RXWLQJV PRUH GLIÂżFXOW :KHUH SXEOLF transportation  is  unavailable  or  challenging  to  come  by,  volunteers  can  help  shuttle  seniors  WR DQG IURP JURFHU\ VWRUHV GRFWRUÂśV RIÂżFHV and  any  other  places  they  need  to  go.  Getting  out  regularly  and  seeing  new  faces  can  help  seniors  overcome  feelings  of  loneliness. •  Participate  in  hobbies  together.  Give Â

seniors  a  sense  of  purpose  by  encouraging  them  to  participate  in  hobbies  or  activities.  Book  clubs  are  one  activity  that  can  interest  people  of  different  age  groups.  â€˘  Encourage  exercise.  Physical  exercise  NHHSV WKH ERG\ ÂżW DQG LPSURYHV PHQWDO KHDOWK 6HQLRUV FDQ EHQHÂżW IURP SK\VLFDO activity  because  it  promotes  strong  bones  and  a  healthy  cardiovascular  system.  In  addition,  seniors  who  enroll  in  exercise  classes  at  gyms  or  local  senior  centers  can  meet  like-­minded  adults,  helping  them  overcome  their  feelings  of  isolation  even  further. •  Provide  meals  and  companionship.  Older  adults  may  not  be  getting  all  they  need  to  maintain  healthy  weights  and  bodily  functions.  Cooking  and  shopping  for  healthy  foods  may  EH GLIÂżFXOW 3URYLGH VHQLRUV ZLWK KHDOWK\ PHDOV when  possible,  and  take  the  time  to  share  those  meals.  This  can  foster  conversations  that  keep  seniors’  minds  sharp  and  also  may  help  prevent  social  isolation. 6HQLRUV FDQ EHQHÂżW IURP PDQ\ GLIIHUHQW forms  of  support,  and  helping  older  adults  is  a  worthy  volunteer  initiative.

My father died 3 years ago. My 83 year old mother spends her days alone watching TV. I worry about her being lonely. You are right to be concerned. Sitting alone watching TV day after day is probably not good for your mother’s body or mind. Lack of social stimulation and interesting experiences can dull the mind and contribute to memory decline. Sitting for long periods weakens the muscles. Balance and mobility can worsen. What’s more, your mother needs fun and pleasant experiences to avoid depression and loneliness. With your father’s recent death, her life changed in a big way. It’s never too late to restructure life, and Elderly Services can help. Our social workers can help your mother and you explore her feelings and interests. We can help her find the motivation to try something new.

Teens  cited  for  illegally  operating  ATVs BRISTOL  â€”  Bristol  police  alleged  that  a  13-­year-­old  and  two  16-­year-­ olds  were  illegally  operating  all  terrain  vehicles  and  a  dirt  bike  on  the  road-­ way  and  eluding  law  en-­ forcement  on  Oct.  18. $ %ULVWRO RIÂżFHU UHVSRQG-­ ed  to  Lower  Meadow  Lane  last  Tuesday  after  a  resident  called  to  complain  about  ATVs  operating  along  Mountain  Street  through  Meadow  Lane. :KLOH FKHFNLQJ WKH DUHD WKH RIÂżFHU observed  two  teens  driving  ATVs  and  one  driving  a  dirt  bike  traveling  from  Lower  Meadow  Lane  onto  Meadow  /DQH :KHQ WKH RIÂżFHU WULHG WR VWRS the  teens  and  activated  emergency  lights  and  siren,  the  teens  sped  up  and  traveled  south  on  Meadow  Lane,  ac-­ cording  to  a  press  release  from  Chief  Kevin  Gibbs. Â

The  teens  allegedly  ran  a  stop  sign  and  continued  east  onto  Mountain  Street,  where  they  pulled  into  a  resi-­ dence  and  were  then  taken  into  custo-­ dy  without  further  incident.  Bristol  police  seized  the  vehicles  and  towed  them  from  the  scene.  The  teens’  failure  to  stop  at  the  stop  sign  and  the  manner  of  their  travel  on  the  roadway  enhances  the  crime  of  eluding  law  enforcement  to  a  felony,  according  to  Gibbs. Bristol  police  had  received  numer-­ ous  complaints  prior  to  the  teens’  ar-­ rest.  Gibbs  said  that  on  Oct.  16,  police  investigated  a  complaint  and  con-­ tacted  the  parent  and  at  least  one  of  the  juveniles  to  warn  them  that  it  was  illegal  to  operate  the  vehicles  on  the  roadway  and  that  complaints  had  been  received.

Bristol Police Log

After  the  incident  on  the  18th,  the  juveniles  were  released  to  their  parents  pending  court  appearance  decisions  by  the  Addison  County  State’s  Attorney’s  2IÂżFH In  a  separate  incident,  Bristol  police  arrested  Charles  Correll,  59,  of  Bristol  for  driving  while  intoxicated  on  Oct.  13  at  10:26  a.m. Correll  had  been  seen  drinking  from  a  liquor  bottle  while  leaving  a  Bristol  business.  Police  took  Correll  to  the  Bristol  police  station,  tested  his  blood  alcohol  content  (BAC)  and  then  re-­ leased  him  to  a  friend.  Police  reported  that  Correll’s  BAC  was  0.266  percent;Íž  the  legal  limit  is  0.08  percent.
