Painkiller prescribing plummets in ER Emergency room doctors keep prescribing fewer pain pills. Is that good or bad for patients in pain?

Erin Glynn Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Terry DeMio Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Think you need pain pills for an injury? Be aware: If you go to a hospital emergency room these days you’re a lot less likely to leave with a prescription for them than before the opioid crisis. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently released an analysis of emergency department prescribing that shows rates dropped nearly a third from 2006-07 to 2016-17. Since then, laws have cut even deeper into the power of doctors to prescribe pain killers. So what does that mean to you? Will you have to endure more suﬀ ering? Will you be treated properly for your pain? Dr. Mark Binstock, co-chief medical information oﬃ cer for Bon Secours Mercy Health, said patients at the health system’s 43-plus hospitals in the United States should feel safer. The drop in prescribing comes with education for prescribers about how to deal with acute patient pain (the kind that comes with a broken bone or a shoulder dislocation, for example) without putting patients at risk for opioid dependence or misuse, he said. “The patient can know, ‘My encounter with the ED will ... lead to a good outcome. I will not be exposed to unnecessary threats ... downstream.’

Cincinnati Parks appoints permanent director

Due to the opioid crisis emergency rooms are cutting back in pain pill prescriptions and considering alternative medicines or pain treatments. However some doctors are concerned that emergency rooms may under-treat patients for their pain. GETTY IMAGES

“They will treat the pain in a safe way,” Binstock said. Dr. Shawn Ryan, who is both a certiﬁ ed addiction expert and a specialist in emergency medicine, says the drop doesn’t mean people are getting shorted on treatment. “It does not mean that the EDs are not treating pain,” said Ryan, founder of BrightView Health centers in Ohio, which treat addiction. “It just means

that they may consider alternative medicines or treatments for pain that are in the best interest of the patient.” Ryan said that, whether a patient still experiences pain, and how much, varies from person to person and the type of injury or illness. Those who end up with chronic pain may be referred to a pain-manSee PAIN, Page 2A

The Cincinnati Board of Park Commissioners has announced its decision to appoint Kara Kish as permanent director of Cincinnati Parks. Kish has been serving as interim director since October, when former Director Wade Walcutt resigned, citing his excitement to “take advantage of another professional opportunity.” Kish is originally from Mentor, Ohio, and has spent more than 20 Kish years working in parks and administration, with stints as president of the Indiana Park and Recreation Association and chair of the National Park and Recreation Association’s Great Lakes Regional Network. As the director, Kish will be responsible for more than 5,000 acres of the city’s public parks. “Kara has earned this,” Brad Lindner, president of the Board of Park Commissioners, said in a news release. “Over the past few months it has become clear just how fortunate we as a Board are to have her experience, talents and her pure passion for parks leading our eﬀ orts to operate and improve our system of parks, trails and programs.”

Why your commute seems stressful Big highway construction projects to watch in Greater Cincinnati Erin Glynn and Madeline Northup Enquirer

The I-275 repaving project will be fi nished by later this year. An earlier version misstated the completion date. If your commute seems more diffi cult lately, here’s why. We checked into interstate construction projects currently aff ecting commuters, plus the projects on the horizon, according to the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC).

That group includes Dr. Jeﬀ rey Singer, who practices general surgery in Phoenix and is a senior fellow at the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank in Washington, D.C. “It means that a lot of people are getting undertreated for pain,” Singer said.

And, he added, “Trying to legislate how to do medicine is wrong.” Singer advocates for harm-reduction strategies, which help people who use drugs stay safe. The strategies include syringe exchange, medication-assisted treatment, access and use of naloxone and safe-injection sites that have medical professionals who ensure the safety of those who use them.

Police: 7-year-old abducted from Springdale motel Dayton man in custody, will face kidnapping charge Madeline Mitchell Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

A Dayton man was arrested in Springdale on Wednesday, Jan. 22, after police said he abducted a 7-year-old child. Glen Armstead Jr., 47, is currently being held in the Montgomery County Jail and will ultimately be extradited to Hamilton County to face a kidnapping charge, according to a release from Springdale Police. Springdale Police units responded to the Super 8 motel on Glensprings Drive at approximately 10:30 a.m. Wednesday for a report of a possible abduction, the release states. Armstead and the 7-year-old child had left the scene in a car by the time police arrived at the motel.

Armstead dropped the child off , unharmed, in Dayton at a relative’s residence about an hour and a half later, according to the release. Police confi rmed that Armstead knew the Armstead child’s mother. Armstead was later located in Montgomery County where police attempted to conduct a traffi c stop of the suspect vehicle. The release states Armstead did not comply with offi cers and a pursuit ensued. Armstead was eventually arrested on I-75 and taken into custody, according to jail records. In addition to kidnapping charges in Hamilton County, Armstead now faces failure to comply and outstanding warrants out of Montgomery County, according to police.

for pain” rather than turned away without help, said Cameron McNamee, director of policy and communications for the Ohio Board of Pharmacy. Beyond the impact on those who actually go to a hospital emergency department, he and Ryan say, is a positive societal eﬀ ect: Having fewer prescription pain pills in circulation. “There is a public health perspective

that the volume of pills that were in the public presented a risk that someone who was not prescribed them would get them,” Ryan said, “through no malice, no intent of the person prescribed them.” McNamee agreed, saying that as more pain pills are left in medicine cabinets unused, it’s more likely for them to slip into the hands of those for whom they weren’t prescribed, such as teenagers, neighbors, relatives or friends. It just makes sense to watch prescribing closely, McNamee said. “We have to keep our eye on the ball.”

Man survives terminal lung disease, now climbing tower With a new set of lungs Scott Ashton will tackle Carew Tower’s 45 ﬂ ights of stairs on Feb. 9 Segann March

Where it all began

A Cincinnati man got a new pair of lungs after battling terminal lung disease and will put them to work when he races up 45 ﬂ ights of stairs in the Carew Tower next month. Scott Ashton wants to help the American Lung Association raise awareness for lung disease, celebrate his victory with loved ones and help raise money for life-saving research by climbing 804 steps on Feb. 9 “I shouldn’t be here," he said in a news release. "I shouldn’t have lived through this, but I did and want to give back. The American Lung Association does more for research than any other organization out there for lung issues. After what happened to me, I am truly blessed, I will do whatever I can to help.”

Ashton enjoyed working out and didn't expect to end up in the intensive care unit of the hospital. He was facing death and doctors were preparing his family for the outcome. After returning from a trip to the Bahamas, Ashton developed a persistent cough. After enduring the cough for several months, he visited a local urgent care center that diagnosed him with walking pneumonia and sent him home with antibiotics. After one week, he was still feeling sick and went to the hospital. After extensive testing, doctors revealed his lungs were scarred with fi brosis. While performing a bronchoscopy, Ashton’s lung collapsed, and he went into cardiac arrest. He was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fi brosis (IPF), a progressive lung disease that makes it diffi cult

to breathe. There is no cure and the outlook is terminal. “They essentially said, ‘you are going to die.’ There was no cure and my lung capacity was decreasing rapidly,” Ashton said. “They told my wife the chances were that I wasn’t going to make it.” Ashton was then transferred to Ohio State University's Wexner Medical Center for comprehensive care. He was placed on life support and added to the lung transplant list. On March 5, 2018, and 12 hours later, Ashton received a double lung transplant. After working hard for two months in rehabilitation to speed up recovery, Ashton returned to work.

Sports Olympic qualifying roster includes Lavelle Dave Clark Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

Twenty players are set to represent the United States Women's National Team in the 2020 CONCACAF Olympic Qualifying Championship – which began on Tuesday, Jan. 28, in Houston – and former Cincinnati United Premier and Mount Notre Dame High School standout Rose Lavelle is among them. Lavelle visited MNDHS – her alma mater in Reading – on Friday, Jan. 17, the same day the roster was announced. Last July, Lavelle helped the USWNT to a FIFA Women's World Cup title and

scored the team's second goal in the ﬁ nal against the Netherlands, earning the Bronze Ball – given to the tournament's third-most outstanding player. The Enquirer's Adam Baum wrote that former USWNT player Heather Mitts, a former St. Ursula Academy standout who runs a soccer camp with Lavelle, was amazed by Lavelle's play in the Women's World Cup. In April, Lavelle will be the guest speaker at the 2020 Cincinnati.com Sports Awards, presented by TriHealth. The 2020 Summer Olympics take place in Tokyo from July 24 through Aug. 9.

Ohio girls basketball coaching legend Mary Jo Huismann nets her 700th career win Scott Springer Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK

OXFORD - Less than an hour away from where she recorded her fi rst victory at Mother of Mercy High School, Mary Jo Huismann collected her 700th career coaching triumph Saturday afternoon Jan. 11. This one came at Talawanda High School, where she’s in her second year of coaching. The girls defeated Ross 4231, pulling away in the second half. In the game’s waning moments, the student section chanted “700!” Afterward, athletic director Wes Cole presented her the game ball and a bouquet of fl owers with her current players surrounding her. Many current players’ parents weren’t yet born when Huismann racked up her fi rst win in the early 1970s. “I’m feeling pretty good but it makes you feel pretty old,” Huismann said. “They fought like crazy and sucked it up when they had to. That’s what you want in a team.” Then, she crossed the gym to where several former Mercy players and staff ers awaited for another picture. The

group included current Mercy McAuley athletic director Denise Harvey. “It was great,” Huismann said of the Mercy contingent. “That’s what you remember is all of the people.” When Mercy disbanded in 2018 and was merged to form Mercy McAuley High School, Huismann thought about stepping aside briefl y, then took on the job in Oxford. Freshman Kylee Fears led Talawanda with 14 points and 12 rebounds and fi ve blocks. Veronica Allen and Brooklyn Breakers had seven points each for Ross. “We can’t lose this game and everybody knew that,” senior Kyra Koontz was thinking during the game’s tense moments. Added freshman Fears, “It’s such an honor to be a part of her awesome legacy. It’s so cool and great to be a part of that.” Talawanda has fi ve freshmen, three sophomores, two juniors and two seniors. “It’s been fun here,” Huismann said. “It’s a challenge. Every year is a chalSee HUISMANN, Page 2B

You may remember defensive back Brayden Coombs from Colerain High School’s last Ohio Division I state championship in 2004. The Cardinals were 15-0 and pretty much obliterated anyone in their path. If you’ve heard Coombs is the new Detroit Lions special teams coach, you may be thinking he’s too young. Particularly in today’s NFL, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Coombs is 33 years old with 10 years of NFL experience, eight seasons more than his father, Kerry Coombs, has logged as defensive backs coach of the Tennessee Titans. “To be honest with you, sometimes I don’t realize I’ve been in the NFL 10 years,” Coombs said. “It goes fast when you’re enjoying it. You kind of blink and look up and a decade’s gone by.”

Climbing the ladder Special teams has been a pathway to head coaching in the pros as the Baltimore Ravens hired John Harbaugh from the special teams ranks and Joe Judge recently went from New England Patriots special teams coach to Giants head coach. Of the 10 years Brayden Coombs spent with the Cincinnati Bengals, seven involved assisting highly regarded Bengals special teams coach Darrin Simmons, who is now Zac Taylor’s assistant head coach. “If you ask me, he’s the best special teams coordinator in the world,” Coombs said of Simmons. “He comes from a really good tree. He’s got a system I believe in that I learned. He’s the most prepared and detailed coach I’ve been around. He leaves no stone unturned.”

The fast track? If you still think 33 is too young keep in mind that Sean McVay of the Los Angeles Rams, Lane Kiﬃ n of the Oakland Raiders, Raheem Morris of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Dave Shula of the Bengals, Josh McDaniels of the Denver Broncos, John Madden of the Raiders and Don Shula of the Indianapolis Colts (prior to the Miami Dolphins) were all NFL head coaches at age 33 or less. While it’s day-to-day and Coombs is ecstatic for his new Lions opportuni-

ty, a long-term goal would be moving up the chain and calling the shots someday. “I think that anyone that gets into this profession, the ultimate goal is to lead a team,” Coombs said. “I don’t have it on my mirror every morning. I’m just trying to do the very best job I can in the job that I’m in. I want to help the Detroit Lions surprise a lot of people next year and win some games.”

Tracing the tree Brayden Coombs went from Colerain to playing at Miami University in the Mid-American Conference, while his father, Kerry, left Colerain after the 2006 season to join Brian Kelly’s Cincinnati Bearcats. By 2009, Brayden Coombs was done as a RedHawk and started as a coaching intern for Marvin Lewis and the BenSee COOMBS, Page 2B

lenge. You get new kids in, everything changes and every year it’s a challenge. I think that’s part of why you do it (coaching). It has to be fun or why in the world would you be doing this?” A gym is rarely crowded and loud for two teams with a combined record of 219, but on this afternoon it was nip and tuck with emotions rolling on every loose ball (and there were several). Talawanda had 30 turnovers. They missed all fi ve of their three-pointers, but outrebounded the Rams 34-26 and outscored them by 11. The smiles were just the same as when many of her Bobcats players came to watch her fi nal game in Mercy’s gym in February 2018. Talawanda jumped to an early 7-3 lead in the fi rst frame, but Ross rallied back to tie by the end of the quarter, 1010. Freshman Halee McDade had a key bucket and free throws to give the Brave girls a 20-18 halftime advantage. In the third period, Talawanda

gals. Kerry Coombs stayed with Butch Jones at UC through 2011 and then was with Ohio State and Urban Meyer from 2012-2017 before moving to Nashville with the Titans and Mike Vrabel. It’s been widely reported Kerry Coombs will be rejoining the Buckeyes and Ryan Day after the NFL playoﬀ s. “Watching my dad is one of the proudest things for me,” Coombs said. “I’ve been around a lot of really good football coaches but the best coach I’ve ever been around to this day is my dad.

gained some breathing room as freshman Kylee Fears had fi ve points and the Rams made just one free throw. The fourth quarter was a loose-ball contest with Talawanda pulling away on free throws (71% to 27% for Ross). For Huismann, 696 triumphs came at Mother of Mercy High School from 1972 through 2018 before the McAuley merger. Huismann was the school’s athletic director for 39 years through 2011 and took the Bobcats to the OHSAA state championship in 1980, 1989 and 1990 fi nishing as AAA and Division I runnerup in all three eff orts.

After leading in the fi rst quarter against North Canton Glenoak, the Bobcats fell 49-47 as Wagner again led with 20 and Mercy fi nished 23-4. “Both of those games you could have won without any problem,” Huismann recalls. ❚ The following 1990 season saw Mercy get by Rocky River Magnifi cat in the DI semifi nal with Jamie Kirch scoring 16 points. They fi nished as state runner-up after a 61-42 loss to Pickerington with Krissy Wegman scoring 16 points.

Watching this run that they (Titans) have been on is the most fun I’ve had watching football on TV that I can remember.” The building blocks for Kerry and Brayden Coombs come from Colerain High School where Kerry led the Cardinals to seven straight Greater Miami Conference championships and the 2004 state crown. Since his departure, Colerain has maintained their spot atop the standings, winning their 20th straight league title this past fall. “I’ll never feel far removed from Colerain,” Brayden Coombs said. “That’s embedded in my core. That played a huge role in molding me into the person I am. It’s a community that works hard

and supports one another. We felt no one was ever going to be tougher than us and that you were going to have to kill us to beat us.” Coombs still speaks of Colerain’s culture as a heavy inﬂ uence on how his teams should approach their seasons. The game plans weren’t complicated, but the preparation was top shelf. The play was fast and physical.

The family meal will have to work around football as Detroit has played the holiday game each year since 1934. “That’s a great perk,” Coombs said. “You know it’s home every year.

COMMUNITY NEWS German Heritage Museum undergoing renovation The German Heritage Museum is undergoing a renovation for the ﬁ rst time in its approximately 175-year history. Located in West Fork Park in Green Township, the two-story log house was built in the 1850s by the Feist family who had emigrated from Germany. It was originally located in Delhi Township, and descendants of the Feist family lived in it until the 1990s. They donated it to the German-American Citizens League, which moved the log structure to West Fork Park. The building was disassembled and then reconstructed at the park. The German-American Citizens League, which maintains the Museum, was founded in 1895. In June it will celebrate the 125th German Day, one of the oldest in the U.S. The German Heritage Museum opened in 2000, and celebrates its 20th anniversary this year. The German Heritage Museum sponsors a wide range of activities, including lectures, exhibits, and festive events, such as Maifest. It maintains a small German genealogy collection, as well as the records of area German societies. It also contains many artifacts relating to German heritage, such as immigrant trunks, wooden shoes, and German society ﬂ ags.

German Heritage Museum. PROVIDED

To assist in the renovation, the GermanAmerican Citizens League sponsors Fat Tuesday, on Feb. 25 at the Hofbräuhaus in Newport, from 6 pm till closing. At 7 p.m. there will be a children’s parade with prizes, and at 7:30 p.m. the adults’ parade with prizes for the four best costumes. For information, call: 513-574-1741.
