Hired in late summer, first-year Taft football coach Perry Herbst had barely a month to familiarize himself with his new surroundings, formulate a starting lineup and unveil his squad to the public.

That unveiling didn’t go well, after the Tigers fell to Estacada 21-0 in the season opener.

Report raises concerns about department that serves as doctors’ eyes PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

“

T

he decision by Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital to revamp its radiology services comes after an internal evaluation revealed the department had flaws across the board, including safety concerns, bad budgeting and a lack of leadership.

Hospital managers received the internal report in December 2011, four months before deciding to outsource radiology services, which include X-rays, CAT scans and ultrasounds, to a group from Corvallis.

Hospital CEO Marty Cahill said the change in provider is one of several steps Samaritan is taking to address the failings noted in the report.

- Connie Shoemaker “There’s some quick fixes,” he said, “and then there’s some things that take time to fix.”

Meanwhile, two local women have come forward, claiming that the Lincoln City radiology department failed to diagnose conditions that were spotted straight away by practitioners in the Valley.

Two stories

Connie Shoemaker said the department’s failure to catch signs of lung cancer in her husband, Donald, delayed treatment of his condition for two months.

“I don’t think he would have been dead today if they had caught that,” she said, adding: “When he discovered this lump, it was really small … then it just kept

getting bigger and we kept on getting pushed off and pushed off.”

Shoemaker said her 79-year-old husband sought help from his primary care doctor in early September 2010 for a pain in his side that was initially misdiagnosed as a hernia.

Her husband’s medical records show that despite performing a CAT scan and two X Rays throughout September and October, radiologists at Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital failed to spot the tumor that was growing in his right lung.

Shoemaker said that, as doctors struggled to determine the cause of her husband’s illness, his pain grew worse and worse, leading to a stay in the ER after a bad reaction to prescribed painkillers.

Lincoln County has admitted that its decision to bar the son of a retired employee from County premises violated his Constitutional right to due process but has argued that the officials involved are shielded from liability due to their government positions.

County commissioners barred Matthew Zekan from parts of the county courthouse after staff complained of feeling threatened by his poster campaign in support of his father, former County sanitarian Bill Zekan.

Matthew Zekan, who felt the County had unfairly forced his father into retirement, had been hand-delivering humorous posters to staff involved in the issue after receiving a previous order to stop taping the posters to County buildings.

The posters, 29 in all, carried slogans including “Stop the dog and pony show” and “Don’t can Zekan, Everyone’s a Grouch sometimes.”

The County has also admitted that “some or all” of Zekan’s activities may have been protected under the Constitutional right to free speech but has argued that the County was within its rights to impose reasonable limits on the time, place and manner of that speech.

The claims and counterclaims are spelled out in a federal lawsuit filed

by Zekan in May and the County’s response, filed on Aug. 20.

School sees growth spurt JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

Students at Oceanlake Elementary School learned something of interest last week, days before the opening bell marking the first day of school sounded: It’s going to take a while for them to find their way around.

A 25,000-square-foot addition that nearly doubles the size of the 61-year-old building at 2420 N.E. 22nd St., was unveiled before a curious public with the reviews virtually unanimous that Lincoln County School District (LCSD) officials had achieved precisely what they were after.

“It’s more than I thought it would be,” Oceanlake Principal Betsy Wilcox said.

“If quality is meeting or exceeding customer expectations, this way exceeds mine.”

The project is one of several to be paid for by passage of a $63 million LCSD general obligation bond sale approved by voters in May 2011.

A new poster child The Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce is hoping to inject some fizz into its second annual Artober Brewfest with a new poster designed by Michelle Davis of Coast Drafting and Design, Inc. “Michelle was selected by a secret committee for the Artober Brewfest because it best reflected the ‘Brewfest’ concept from the submissions,” Chamber Executive Director Linda Roy said.

Davis’ design will be the centerpiece of the promotional campaign for the event, which is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 6.

The Brewfest – featuring artisans, craft beers, and culinary craftsmen is a familyfriendly celebration and an opportunity to enjoy juried artwork, sample handcrafted beer and food, dance to live music, and enjoy the fun events with the kids.

“The Artober Brewfest was a great success last year where attendees and vendors alike began asking about the next year before

we made. One of the promises was we would keep as much money as possible in Lincoln County. ... What you see today is exactly what you paid for.”

General contractor Quade Commercial Construction Co. of Lincoln City said 86 percent of the contract amount of $4.6 million was spent on the project with Lincoln County contractors and suppliers.

“Every time I come in here, it’s been a kind of a ‘wow’ factor, “ LCSD Superintendent Tom Rinearson said. “I was telling people, I don’t know what I’m more excited about — that we’ve replaced portable buildings with a wonderful facility, that we have so many new wonderful teachers here, or that the building was built by local contractors.”

Following a ribboncutting ceremony sponsored by the Lincoln City Chamber of Commerce, students and their parents, family and friends explored the new on-time addition. It includes five classrooms, a structured learning center, music room, stage, gymnasium, restrooms, offices and an entryway moved from the north to south end of the school.

“We are so pleased,” Wilcox said, “about the way it turned out and with the space we now have for teaching and learning.”

And playing.

A 6,049-square-foot gymnasium, the school’s first, replaces one that also served as a cafeteria for roughly 400 students. Outside, students also found a renovated playground and 8-foot-wide asphalt track.

It was the larger classrooms that grabbed parents’ attention, however.

“I’m from here, I went to school here,” Stephen Marsh, father of third-grader Baylee Marsh, said, “and you have so many days where it’s just raining and you can’t play outside. When recess comes around, what are you going to do? When you’re first- second- and third-graders, you have to let that energy out, so it’s nice to have a place where you can do that like the gymnasium and playground they now have.”

In addition, a parking lot of 22 additional spots, totaling 81, and a sidewalk and fire access road were constructed. Two new boilers were installed, the building’s windows and heating system were replaced with energyefficient models and the bathrooms upgraded.

Two existing classrooms that are being remodeled into a library and computer lab will be completed by January. The expansion was designed for further classroom extension westward if the need arises, Rich Belloni, LCSD’s director of support services, said.

While many class sizes will remain well above 30 and 74 kindergartners are expected to attend the school, Rinearson and Wilcox agreed that room now existed for a bigger faculty and staff if additional state funding were approved.

“It has really been the community,” Wilcox said.

“From the contractors to the maintenance crews to the teachers, everybody has just pitched in and done whatever needed to be done.

Everybody feels ownership.”

Want to see a doggy paddle?

Her own old faithful

The ever-popular Dog Swim at the Lincoln City Community Center will take place two weeks later than usual this year due to a change in the fall pool maintenance schedule.

The swim, which sees dogs of all sizes take to the water with their owners, is scheduled to take place from 4 to 5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 16.

“Well-behaved dogs of all breeds are invited to swim and play in the pool,” center director Gail Kimberling said. “Be sure to bring a favorite ball or toy – and a camera! Humans may wade, but not swim, with their canine friends.”

Admission to the dog swim is free with a donation of canned or dry pet food for the Lincoln County Animal Shelter.

Following the dog swim the Lincoln City Pool will close for annual maintenance from Monday, Sept.

17 through Friday, Sept. 28.

This closure provides an opportunity for deep cleaning and repairs following a busy summer season. This year, a contractor will install safety grooving on the pool decks, and prep work will take place for installation of an accessible lift for the spa.

A geyser in Taft gave one Lincoln City woman a dramatic reminder to “call before you dig,” on the morning of Wednesday, Aug. 29.

Public Works Director Lila Bradley said the woman was digging a hole for a plant near the edge of her property when she breached a 2-inch water line, sending a cascade skyward.

Bradley said City water crews rushed to the scene, at S.E. Heron Loop behind Fitness 101, and repaired the pipe.

Bradley said anyone planning to dig should call 811 in order to receive a free utilities location service, where utility crews mark the location of underground pipes and lines with spray paint.

Lincoln City Comunity Center will host a dog swim on Sept. 16, from 4 to 5 p.m. ing wall and basketball gym will remain open during the pool closure, and all fitness classes will continue as usual. Locker rooms will also remain open; however there may be intermittent locker room closures due to plumbing repairs.

The senior center and Mealsite program will continue to operate as well.

Aquatic pass holders are welcome and encouraged to use all fitness areas for the

duration of the pool closure.

A special senior “dry land” class will be held 8:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays while the pool is closed.

A good deal for Shriners Motorcycle fans raised $375 for Shriners Hospitals for Children on Saturday, Aug. 11, by taking part in a poker run that led them to Mount Hood and back.

The run, organized by Lincoln City police officer Robert Bomar, saw 15 participants competing to see who could amass the best poker hand after drawing five cards in five different locations.

The winner would take home a quarter of the pot, with the rest going to the Shriners.

The 15-strong crew drew their first card after breakfast at BK Mulligan’s sports bar and went on to visit Salem, Molalla and Sandy before rounding out their hands with a final pick at Government Camp.

LCVHA consistently advocates for VRD regulation based on documented problems instead of hearsay and rumors.

Unity by the Sea will be open on the World Day of Prayer 11:00 am to 8:00 pm, September 13th.

Please come anytime during those hours to join with people all over the world to help create Peace for our Planet.

City officials recently documented all problems with city VRDs over the last 4 years for the VRD Consensus Group.

The city’s data shows a very low incidence of problems, and testimony by our local police chief backed up this information when he said that VRDs don’t cause problems.

Despite that, there is a move in the consensus group to recommend not allowing VRDs in some neighborhoods in the city.

Did You Know— Unity believes that Loving Energy is made manifest as health on every level, abundance in all our affairs, and wisdom in all our relationships.

Final Meeting On Wednesday, September 12th, from 4 to 8:30pm, the city’s VRD Consensus Group meets to attempt to reach a final consensus on the future of VRDs.

By the end of this final meeting the group is supposed to have a comprehensive set of recommendations for the future of VRDs ready to present back to the city council.

We Should Learn From Others LCVHA believes that our city’s VRD laws need to be re-written. An improved law would …  Support the city’s tourism and economic development goals.  Support the local VRD association’s efforts to establish standards and actively work to eliminate problems.  Eliminate discrimination against VRDs on issues that should apply to all property owners — parking, noise, management of trash and landscaping requirements.  Eliminate duplicate enforcement and penalties. Currently VRD owners are cited and fined by both local police and a VRD enforcement officer on the same issue.  Eliminate penalties to VRD owners for things that they have no control over.

Currently VRD owners are penalized when guests violate local laws.  Target problems that city documentation actually shows are legitimate VRD issues  Support property rights of all taxpayers.

William M. Dodson purchased the first store in Taft in 1911. He also functioned as the town’s second postmaster from January 12, 1911, to March 11, 1912. Shortly after the purchase he constructed a new store and used the old one as a warehouse. Dodson’s new store, seen here circa 1915, became a vital part of Taft and all the surrounding area by providing basic necessities not available anywhere else.

Schrader has stood up for seniors Thair Phillips RetireSafe President

RetireSafe, representing more than 400,000 seniors nationwide, has joined local senior advocates to honor Rep. Kurt Schrader for his efforts to protect the health benefits and security of Oregon’s seniors.

As RetireSafe president, I presented the RetireSafe “Standing Up For America’s Seniors” Award commemorative plaque at the Salem district office, recognizing Schrader’s accomplishments and service to older Americans.

Schrader is one of a bipartisan group of members of Congress whom Retire-

Safe is recognizing in their home districts throughout the August recess. These members have acted to protect seniors’ health care benefits by ensuring access to affordable medications through Medicare Part D, opposing any laws or regulations that threaten the doctor/patient relationship and speaking out against proposals that threaten to limit access to health care and increase Medicare premiums.

America’s seniors continue to count on those in Washington who are willing to put politics aside and fight for the benefits they have earned.

The benefits and rights

of seniors are under attack and seniors need champions in Washington to preserve the benefits that many seniors depend on.

RetireSafe is pleased to be able to recognize these members of Congress, some of them for the second time in a row, for their tireless work in protecting Medicare and supporting seniors both in Washington and locally.

RetireSafe is a nonprofit, nonpartisan grassroots organization that advocates and educates on behalf of America’s seniors on issues regarding Social Security, Medicare, health and financial well-being.

School bus safety: do your part Sheriff’s Tips

By Sheriff Dennis Dotson

Your Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind drivers of their responsibility to stop for school buses displaying red flashing lights. Because buses are large vehicles, the level of difficulty to see around increases. The outcome of illegally pass-

ing a stopped school bus is potentially devastating for children and drivers.

Law enforcement agencies continue to receive reports of motorists failing to stop for school buses from bus drivers and other citizens each year. With nearly 6,000 school buses operating in the State of Oregon, motorists need to be alert.

Oregon law requires motorists to stop whenever the red lights on a school bus are flashing regardless of the direction you are travel-

ing. The law applies to any roadway with two or more lanes of traffic, including multi-lane highways such as Highway 101.

The only exception to the law is for divided highways with two roads separated by an unpaved median strip or barrier, such as in the Lincoln and Gleneden Beach areas. In this case, only drivers on the same side of the road as the bus must stop.

A painted median strip or a center lane used only for left turns does not create two

separate lanes. Where this situation exists, all lanes of traffic must stop.

When a bus is flashing amber lights, motorists should prepare to stop.

When the red lights begin to flash, motorists traveling in both directions must stop before reaching the bus and must remain stopped until the red lights are turned off. The same rules apply to church or worker buses equipped with amber and red flashing lights.

Please do your part to

make our roads safe. Be aware when following any type of bus, it may be making frequent stops. Following these tips will help reduce the risk of traffic crashes and pedestrian injuries in our community.

For more tips and information, please visit our website at www.lincolncountysheriff.net and Like us on Facebook at Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office – Oregon.

make sure these workers are paid at least what they are owed.

Voices of Lincoln County Depoe Bay heroes

I want to let your community know that you have a couple of modern day ‘heroes’, in my family’s opinion!

My daughter, her boyfriend and my granddaughter broke down in their car on Hwy 101 on Friday, August 24. It was just turning dark, and they didn’t know what to do. I live in Corvallis, and wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to help my daughter. My wife and I were very scared and nervous for them!

Along came Jerry and Mike, they stopped, when dozens of cars passed right on by. They made sure my daughter and her family were OK, then went to work on the car.

After working on the car for hours, even running in to town to get parts, they decided they couldn’t fix it that night. Jerry and Mike arranged for a tow truck, and had my daughter towed to a motel!

Saturday morning, Jerry and Mike worked hard to find the part to fix the car. As it turned out, the part was not locally available, and the car was towed to my daughter’s home in Portland.

Jerry and Mike went out of their way to help strangers, giving of their time,

talent, and money. They took so much stress off my family, and for that we are grateful. If you know these guys, please pat them on the back. You are fortunate to have people like them in your community!

From grateful parents thanks again Jerry and Mike!

Think of the workers

In today’s struggling economy, I don’t understand why Oregon workers are the first to suffer while banks and corporations continue to profit.

One example is wage theft, which is far more widespread than we would like to believe. From 2006 to 2011, over 8,000 wage theft claims were filed with the Oregon state labor bureau, totaling $24.5 million. And how many workers know how to file a claim? How many thousands more workers must be victims of wage theft that goes unreported?

Let’s all take a moment this Labor Day week to give extra thanks for the lowwage workers who work in our restaurants, clean our motels and offices and homes, and care for our children. Let’s also pledge to

A platitude problem

I feel compelled to respond to the letter in your Aug. 22 issue titled “Reading Between the Lines.” The letter is so filled with political platitudes and generalities as to make one hope all Democrats are not this naive. I am neither Democrat nor Republican, but an Independent voter.

To me it appears that Obama has shown us he is not up to the job of leading this country—unless it would be to lead us into bankruptcy and more government control. Mitt Romney has proven in the past that he is a very smart businessman, and together with Paul Ryan, who is determined to balance our budget through the years, a strong team would be elected, which we are desperately in need of right now.

Let’s listen to the debates coming up and decide. Let’s not jump to conclusions or become influenced by hare-brained opinions such as those expressed in this article.

Business North County dialysis hopes fade A5

The News Guard

PATRICK ALEXANDER The News Guard

The prospects of dialysis service returning to Lincoln City have faded greatly with Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital’s decision not to pursue the idea of a standalone center.

The hospital had originally hoped to take on responsibility for the service after the previous provider, Dialysis Centers of Oregon, pulled out in June 2010.

The loss of the center left patients facing an hour and a half round trip drive three times a week to receive treatment at the nearest alternate dialysis facilities in Newport and McMinnville.

The hospital’s plan to step in and take on the service became more complicated in 2011, when Samaritan Health Services sold its other three dialysis centers, in Newport, Corvallis and Lebanon, to international dialysis operator Fresenius Medical Care.

Samaritan CEO Larry Mullins said the sale was motivated by changes in reimbursement rates for

dialysis centers.

In a recent employee forum, hospital CEO Marty Cahill confirmed that Samaritan feels a Lincoln City dialysis center is no longer viable.

In addition to the change in reimbursement rates, he said, the sale of Samaritan’s other centers left the organization without the technical expertise to keep the dialysis machines running.

A third reason, Cahill said, was the loss of dialysis patients that accompanied the closure of the Lincoln City Rehabilitation Center in the summer of 2011.

Cahill said the three factors combined to make Lincoln City dialysis a losing proposition.

“When we look at feasibility, we look at not losing money,” he said. “If we can get it to a break-even point, mission will drive some of what we do.”

Sandy Pfaff, executive director of the Lincoln City Visitor & Convention Bureau, said the lack of a dialysis center is a blow to the City’s attempts to market itself to people with

disabilities as well as seniors in general.

“I would guess as we get older and older and these kind of issues become more prevalent, that that part of the market is going to get bigger,’ she said. “And it’s going to need to go someplace else, where it has that option.”

Cahill said the hospital renovated the dialysis center, which is owned by the North Lincoln Health District, and invested in new dialysis machines in preparation for running the facility.

He said the machines are now for sale on the secondhand market, where they could fetch anywhere from 50 to 90 cents on the dollar.

City-permitted renovations including a new fire sprinkler system, accessibility improvements to a sidewalk and installation of a generator cost $39,100, in addition to plumbing and electrical work permitted by the County.

Cahill said the plumbing, sprinkler system and sidewalk work will stand the building in good stead re-

He said the hospital is currently evaluating the best use of the building, stressing that whatever service line

the organization brings in needs to at least break even in order to be feasible.

Case has been the interim executive director following the departure of Eric Vines at the end of June.

“With our new radiologist group from CorvalCathy Bob lis Radiology, we are able to Carr-Hoefer Long further expand our services and continue to provide a very high level of care right here in Lincoln City,” Carr-Hoefer said. “For example, we now offer ultrasound guided breast biopsies on-site,” Robert Long, PT, is the new manager of the Physical Rehabilitation Department at SNLH. He has been a member of the SNLH rehab team since 2008.

At the top of Long’s “to-do” list is developing the full capabilities of the Generations Rehab center, fulfilling its mission of providing specialized rehab services to people of all ages. The reintegration area is already in use helping acute care inpatients make the transition back to their homes.

Tips for healthy living from Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital

Stay healthy and active in the rainy season.

A bounty of fresh, healthy food is available in the fall: colorful squashes and greens, gorgeous apples and pears, Oregon hazelnuts and fall salmon. It’s easy to eat well at this time of year.

Don’t stop exercising: join an indoor sports league, get a treadmill, pick up a variety of exercise videos from the library. It doesn’t rain all the time, so get outdoors and take a walk on the beach. Maybe you’ll find a glass float.

The rainy season is also flu season.

Ask your primary care doctor about flu shots.

Taft High 7-12 student Terin Trachtenburg took third place in the Oregon Statewide Spelling Contest at the Oregon State Fair on Saturday, Sept. 1.

Trachtenburg competed in the middle school division of the event, which is run by Oregon Spellers, an all-volunteer group funded solely by donations.

The annual spelling contest had previously been directed by the Oregon Department of Education (ODE), which stopped supporting the contest after 2008 due to state budget cuts.

Spellers came from 24 counties all over Oregon to compete in the contest, which is a written competition, not an oral bee, so all contestants in each division receive the same

Zekan

From page A1

The County first banned Zekan from the planning and personnel departments of the courthouse in May 2010 after Planning Director Valerie Soihili and Personnel Director Gina Tapp complained that they found his poster deliveries threatening.

When Zekan sent two letters seeking an apology for what he said were false accusations, Assistant County Counsel Kristin Yuille told him that Soilihi and Tapp would seek stalking orders against him if he tried to communicate with them again.

In November 2010, Zekan wrote to County Commissioners Bill Hall, Don Lindly and Terry Thompson, asking them to lift the exclusion order, which he described as “petty, capricious and wholly unfounded.” They refused and, on May 4, 2011, Zekan decided to challenge the order by parking in the planning department parking lot until he was arrested.

After the arrest, Soilihi sent an email to some of her colleagues, incorrectly stating that police had searched Zekan’s car during the arrest. That was followed by a courthouse security alert issued by the sheriff’s office, which included Zekan’s mugshot and a claim that he had been watching staff members and possibly logging their activities.

The district attorney’s office charged Zekan with trespassing but dismissed the charge the following month after Zekan’s attorney argued the exclusion order was unlawful because it lacked any avenue for appeal.

In a response filed by attorney Jens Schmidt, the County admitted the order failed to comply with due process.

On the same day the trespassing charge was dismissed, the County issued a new exclusion order, giving Zekan five days in which to file an appeal — which he did.

The County admits its County’s Community Justice Director Suzie Gonzales, who acted as hearings officer, denied Zekan’s requests for pre-hearing disclosure of police reports and witness statements, prohibited cross examination of witnesses and allowed Yuille to act as prosecutor while also appearing as a witness for the County.

after she fell into the ravine at about 2 p.m. on Aug. 21 while fleeing police officers.

Nightingale was taken to Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital with a suspected broken ankle and later transported to the Lincoln County Jail.

She and fellow suspect, 34-year-old Keith Raymond Tull of Eugene, have since been arraigned on charges of second-degree theft, and attempted first-degree theft.

Their bail is set at $30,000 each.

Zekan says these actions further violated his right to due process.

Gonzales upheld the exclusion order, saying Zekan’s behavior was “obsessive” and “perceived by employees as stalking and intimidating and disruptive to their workplaces.”

She said Zekan had logged employees’ movements, threatened to confront employees and demand apologies and made repeated nighttime visits to the courthouse.

Zekan denies all but the last allegation.

Zekan said Gonzales made her ruling almost entirely on hearsay and that the County was attempting to deny him his right to free speech.

As well as the due process and free speech complaints, Zekan has accused the County of false arrest, malicious prosecution and defamation. He has asked the court to award damages of $116,000 plus attorney fees and to issue an injunction preventing the County from imposing any further trespass orders.

While the County’s response admits to many of Zekan’s factual allegations, Schmidt has raised 13 affirmative defenses, arguing that the various County officials took what appeared to be reasonable actions in the course of their duties.

Schmidt argues that commissioners and staff are covered by “qualified immunity,” a defense that shields government officials from liability for unlawful actions that were taken in a legal gray area.

He also argues that Gonzales, Yuille and Soilihi are covered by immunity due to their respective roles as judge, prosecutor and witness in the hearing process.

Meanwhile, Schmidt has raised a defense of “absolute privilege” in relation to the defamation claim. A defense that typically applies to statements made in court or in legislative bodies, absolute privilege shields the author of a statement from liability, even if their words are judged to have damaged a person’s reputation.

Zekan has requested a jury trial. The case, filed in the U.S. District Court in Eugene and assigned to the Honorable Magistrate Judge Thomas M. Coffin, continues.

Soilihi, Tapp and Lindly have since left their positions with the County.

From page A1

It was not until November, when Donald was referred to Providence Portland Medical Center, that positron emission tomography and a pair of biopsies revealed the presence of the cancer.

By December, the couple were in the care of Compass Oncology in Portland, where Shoemaker says the cancer specialist was able to spot the tumor by looking at the first scan Samaritan carried out in September.

“She looked at the first CAT scan and said ‘what’s the matter? Can’t they read their own CAT scans? This is a tumor and it’s wrapped around his bottom rib,’” Shoemaker said. “That was done in September, we are now in December.”

The medical records confirm that the Compass doctor was able to see in the original CAT scan a spikyedged lesion of the type that are, according to radiology expert Judith Gunn Bronson, “nearly always malignant.”

By the time the tumor was discovered, it was on the cusp between stage 3b and stage 4 and was deemed incurable.

Donald died in January 2011 while being airlifted to Legacy Good Samaritan Medical Center in Portland after being rushed into the Lincoln City ER. “We said ‘see each other in two hours at Good Samaritan,’” Shoemaker said. “And those were the last words he said to me.”

Shoemaker said she received no response to a complaint filed with the hospital about her husband’s treatment and hopes that focus on the issue will force Samaritan to raise its game.

“I don’t want anyone else to have to go through what my husband went through,” she said. “The quality is not there.”

Judy Allen of Roads End also feels let down by the Lincoln City radiology department, which failed to spot that her acid reflux had led to strictures and ulcers in her esophagus — conditions that can cause difficulty swallowing and lead to more serious problems, including cancer.

Allen’s medical records show that in March 2012 she visited the Lincoln City facility for a double con-

trast study, a radiological procedure where she drank barium to produce an image of her esophagus and stomach.

The department reported the study showed no evidence of strictures or ulcers.

Allen said her primary care doctor doubted the results and sent her to Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Corvallis later that month for an endoscopy — a procedure in which a fiberoptic tube and camera are inserted into the throat.

Records show that procedure discovered the strictures and ulcers, for which Allen went on to receive treatment.

Studies published in various medical journals conclude that double contract studies, when properly performed, should be able to detect strictures about as effectively as an endoscopy.

Allen, 72, said she had a friend whose ulcerated esophagus went undiagnosed and who went on to die from esophageal cancer “I don’t want to die yet,” she said. “I’ve got greatgrandchildren being born.”

She questioned whether the Lincoln city facility is up to the task of performing and interpreting diagnostic images.

“What use is going to a doctor and them sending you for tests if the tests are not accurate?” she said. “The machine is no better than the operator.”

The report

Staff competency was one of several issues raised in the December 2011 internal review, which saw three high-level Samaritan managers travel from Corvallis to spend a day on site at the Lincoln City facility.

The resulting report, which is available in full with the online version of this story, identified several safety concerns, includ

A subsidized system

North Lincoln Health District is one of 25 health districts that support either clinics or hospitals across Oregon.

Health districts are located in sparsely populated areas such as the Coast and Eastern Oregon, where there is not enough demand for service to support a for-profit or non-profit operation without tax subsidy.

The district imposes a property tax of 51.84 cents per $1,000 of assessed value and is projected to receive $1.1 million this year.

The District pays Samaritan a little more than a million dollars a year to subsidize the operation of Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital and its associated clinics.

The District is also Samaritan’s landlord, leasing it the hospital facility for a dollar a year and being responsible for the premises and fixed equipment.

ing questions about the proper radiation dose during X-rays and CAT scans, with children’s cases being flagged as a particular concern.

The authors also said the department was failing to follow Samaritan processes for invasive procedures including proper use of shielding.

Meanwhile, the authors said, different technicians were performing exams very differently leading to “many inconsistencies and incomplete studies” that would not meet American College of Radiology standards.

The evaluation also concluded that the CAT scanner room was “very poorly designed and dangerous when dealing with a trauma or ventilator team.”

Other concerns included a lack of basic understanding of budget, questions about whether reports were complete enough to secure proper reimbursement and whether the hospital performs enough CAT scans to keep technicians proficient.

Finally, the report concluded the department had “no defined chain of command,” adding that the lack of a leadership presence was leading to morale issues and a lack of accountability. “[It is] perceived as a very casual department with staff having a somewhat laxidazical [sic] approach to professionalism,” the report reads.

Cahill said he ordered the evaluation as part of an ongoing process to improve quality across the hospital’s roughly 27 departments.

“Based on that feedback we did what we felt was in the best interests of the hospital to make sure we provide a high-quality product,” he said.

Four months after receiving the report, the hospital decided to outsource radiology services to Corvallis Radiology, PC, a move Cahill said will also open the door to interventional radiology such as ultrasound-guided biopsies.

Cahill said anyone with concerns about the quality of their radiology work can talk with their physician, adding that any poor-quality scans would have been repeated until the radiologist was sure they were good enough.

He declined to comment on any of the report’s findings, saying he views them much like personnel issues, which are handled confidentially.

Cahill said he would generally share details of in-

Corvallis Radiology, PC is a group of 13, board-certified radiologists who already perform radiology services for Samaritan Regional Medical Center in Corvallis as well as its hospital in Lebanon.

According to the Hospital Compare website run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Corvallis facility is at or near the state average in all the criteria used to evaluate medical imaging.

The site does not have comparison data for smaller hospitals such as the facilities in Lincoln City and Lebanon.

ternal evaluations with both the North Lincoln Health District board of directors and the hospital board of directors — adding that this might take the form of a verbal update rather than handing them a copy of the report.

Oversight

The report did not receive a public airing because the hospital board of directors, which is responsible for operational oversight of the hospital, meets in private.

Meanwhile, the health district board of directors, an elected body that meets in public every month, acts as Samaritan’s landlord and steward of the taxes that local residents pay to support the facility (see panel).

Esther Schwartz, who chaired the health district until June this year, said the

district’s agreement with Samaritan is designed to prevent board members “micromanaging” the hospital.

“Even though we might have been informed of the problem and told about it in a general way, I feel certain I never saw a five- or six-page report,” she said “And, furthermore, I don’t know that I would have expected to.”

Schwartz said she recalled some board discussion about problems with imaging but that this was limited to an isolated issue regarding mammograms.

“We did not at all ever feel that the community was at risk,” she said, “that the service that was being provided was not up to par.”

Mick McLean, who took over as chair in July, also remembers the mammogram discussion but said the board was never made aware of a wider problem with radiology as a whole.

“It had been presented to us that this change was being made simply to provide greater onsite, during-theweek coverage,” he said.

Minutes from the District meetings also show the change will save the hospital an estimated $250,000 per year.

McLean agreed with Schwartz that the District has an “arms length relationship” with the hospital.

“We should be aware of these kinds of things,” he said. “But, again, this whole relationship has been based on trust and good management for so long.”

Tigers take it on chin in opener JIM FOSSUM The News Guard

W

ith the season starting before the new school year was even in session, new Taft football coach Perry Herbst probably felt a little rushed to get a team on the field.

Hired in late summer, the first-year Taft coach had barely a month to familiarize himself with his new surroundings, formulate a starting lineup and unveil his squad to a curious public.

The time came on Friday, Aug. 31, and, despite losing 21-0 at home to Estacada, Herbst’s team showed it might have something enticing to stick around and watch.

“Anytime you lose, it’s frustrating,” he said, “but I wasn’t really frustrated. It’s just that we’ve got a lot to

learn,” While Taft awaits its next lesson at 7 p.m. Friday at home against Seaside, Herbst identified several points of emphasis for his prep work in its nonconference defeat to the Rangers of the Class 4A Tri-Valley Conference.

Most notably, recognizing how fast the game is and reacting off the snap will be a priority.

“We’ve got to get faster with the game,” Herbst said. “It’s a fast game, and our depth kind of showed because we’re not very deep. But the kids just have to understand we’ve just got to keep challenging ourselves to get better.”

Taft, with several players in new positions, trailed just 7-0 at halftime after the Rangers drove 73 yards in 15 plays to go ahead on a short plunge with 3:14 left in the first quarter.

Stingy defense, a missed 36-yard field goal attempt by the Rangers and a 53-yard punt on the run

by Taft junior Seth Steere helped keep Estacada off the scoreboard through the remainder of the half.

The Rangers deflated Taft’s hopes at victory at the start of the second half by recovering an onside kick. Estacada converted two fourth-down situations to go ahead 14-0 at 5:35 of the third quarter on a 1-yard run by junior Steven Weaver.

The Rangers put the game away against a tiring Taft defense with 5:03 to play in the game when junior Brandon Beck bolted 32 yards for a 21-0 advantage.

“We did a heck of a job on defense,” Herbst said, “but we played so much defense, too much defense.

We can’t play that much

defense and expect to win a game. But I was proud that they kept fighting.”

Herbst was particularly pleased with his secondary, citing seniors Brent Martin, Tyler Lopez and Keanu Eastman and sophomore Pete Lahti for their efforts against the pass.

He also saw some bright spots in the running game once the Tigers identified some holes opened by the line in the second half when it wasn’t fighting quickness issues getting off the ball.

“It’s going to get better, “ Herbst said. “That’s what preseason’s for, is just to keep learning and keep challenging ourselves. If we keep challenging ourselves to be better every play, then we’ll get pretty good.

The kids are learning that.

JIM FOSSUM/THE NEWS GUARD They’re going to get it.”

At a level where faces are constantly changing, Taft High’s Frank Napoleon was content to see some familiar names when he sat down in preseason to pencil in his team’s roster for the 2012 volleyball season.

The Tigers return six varsity players from a year ago in compiling what Napoleon considers a much better passing team with the season-opening match scheduled for 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 6, at the Taft High School gym.

Now, if it could make as big of a gain in its serving.

“Last year’s team was not a very good passing and serving team,” Napoleon said. “The team has been working hard to improve in those areas.”

At least the passing portion of the problem is improved, Napoleon said, with the addition of senior Alexa Taunton, who sat out last season, and junior transfer Taylor Adams, who should also provide significant defensive help.

However any success Taft enjoys this season will likely

“Sarvis brings strong leadership skills and is a very good all-around player,” he said of the outside hitter, who has played varsity since her freshman season and combines a contagious attitude with a strong work ethic.

Another four-year Taft player, Button, a setter and

defensive specialist, brings a constant smile and an optimistic approach along with skills in all areas, Napoleon said.

Another senior, Mckenna Swinford, floated between the varsity and junior varsity squads a season ago. She is a good server and working on becoming a strong outside hitter, he said.

Also expected to see plenty of court time are sophomores BillyAnn Stem-

pel, Katie McCardell, Chanel Bailey and Olivia Day, and freshman Kelsey Wilkinson.

Stempel, a setter, is considered one of the team’s strongest hitters, and McCardell, a middle blocker, is expected to be involved in a lot of the team’s quicker sets.

Bailey, another middle blocker, improved her game at a volleyball camp this summer, and is a strong blocker, while Day, a transfer from Waldport High, is developing into a power hitter.

Napoleon said Wilkinson is “a tremendous young

player” who will be used as setter and defensive specialist.

“My goal is to develop a volleyball program where the volleyball athletes become school leaders, are positive role models, have good sportsmanship, develop self-esteem and have fun,” Napoleon said.

In keeping with those objectives, Napoleon said he

wants to increase participation, teach the skills needed to help the athletes be successful, work closely with the city league program to develop a feeder program with the elementary and middle school students, and raise money to support the program.

A keeper of the coast Unsung Heroes

By Janet Anderson

T

he large dock washing up on our shore at Agate Beach in Newport was a wake up call to all of us that It Is Coming. Yes, the great heaps of unfortunate trash that were washed out to sea with the devastating tsunami that pounded the Japanese shore last year is out there, lurking. Well, Terry Hager is on the watch.

She has been a member of the Coast Watch team headed by Phillip Johnson and the Oregon Shores Coalition since 2007.

Members of this group ‘adopt’ a Terry mile of our Oregon Hager Beach. They walk it and report what they see to Coast Watch: wrack line contents, dead birds, stranded sea lions or other mammals, dogs, horses people or anything else walking, running, or driving on the beach. They also report on new construction, landslides, rip rap activity or other land activities that border on the beach.

They report quarterly either online or in written/’snail mail’ form.

Terry has lived in this area full time since 2004, but her family has owned property since 1960 and she has spent many, many years on the beach in Roads End. She loves the beach, walking it nearly daily.

The people who are climbing the cliff near the end of Roads End beach are a current worry that she reports on. Lately she has seen mostly young men climbing up to the top of the cliff at the end of the beach. As they climb, rocks begin to tumble down to become a landslide. This cliff is extremely unstable and the danger of the climbers falling and becoming injured is quite real.

Another time Terry reported to Coast Watch on Nov 6, 2009 9:30 PM: “ And so it’s around 9:30 Friday night and I had just gone around and turned all the lights out so I could watch the lightning. A few homes on the beach had their powerful floodlights directed at the ocean. I’m sitting on my sofa with cat in lap when I say to myself, “What the heck is that?!” In the glow of those powerful floodlights I see a large, white, vertical cloud moving from south to north along the beach. It comes ashore just a few blocks from my house! I can see the trees over there just whipping but my trees are quite still.

Then, the transformer blows and all the power goes out in Roads End. When the lightning lit up the sky again, I could see chaos to the north of me. It didn’t take me long to figure out that a waterspout had just come onshore. I took a look at the damage on Sunday and it is substantial. The tornado looks to have skipped around the neighborhood, hitting a house here and there, uprooting trees, breaking windows. The damage was on 74th street…Yep, it hit a little too close to home! “ On the beach one of Terry’s biggest concerns is the pulverized bits of plastic that are present in the wrack line. It is especially apparent during the winter. More and more the content of our sand will include plastic, which we all know is not biodegradable. True, it does add a bit of color, but at what cost? I have seen what she is talking about and it is very obvious if you look carefully. And this plastic does not even include all the water bottles that we all find.

Terry wanted me to be sure to give huge kudos to Phillip Johnson, the Coast Watch teams, and the Oregon Shores Coalition. (www. oregonshores.org) They are always looking for new volunteers.

Of course, how can all this important work be taken care of without you volunteers?

Thanks, Terry, we appreciate all your work on behalf of our precious coast.

If you know of an incredible volunteer you would like to spotlight, please contact me at Beachlady868@embarqmail. com

Headwaters to Sea W

estwind Stewardship Group co-founder, Duncan Berry, will give a multimedia presentation about his 30-mile, 40-hour trek down the Salmon River last fall, called “Headwaters to Sea.” The program – chronicling the biodiversity, health and challenges of the salmon-bearing stream from Oregon’s Coastal Range to Cascade Head – begins at 6 p.m. Sept. 6 at the Lincoln City Cultural Center.

“It all started with a crazy question,” says Berry, an Oregon native, conservationist and entrepreneur. “Could I find the headwaters of the river I lived on and walk from there to the sea? Twelve months later, I knelt in the mixed waters of the Salmon River where it meets the ocean on Oregon’s central coast, having answered that question.”

As part of the 1st Annual Westwind Stewardship Group Speaker Series, Berry’s narrative uses stunning photographs and video to highlight the forest and stream ecosystems within this Oregon Coast watershed. Look for a multi-paged spread on the trip featured in next month’s issue of 1859 – Oregon’s Magazine.

A particular highlight is Mr. Berry’s vivid documentation of spawning salmon. With a backdrop of stunning photos of native Chinook salmon after a 5,000-mile round trip, Berry said, “Their dead, spent bodies are strewn on the banks around us, providing the greatest single source of nitrogen found in these coastal forests so stripped of elements by incessant rain.”

Both events encourage a $10 donation to the Westwind Stewardship Group, a non-profit conservation and education organization dedicated to preserving the Westwind ecosystem.

Soeby featured at Cultural Center A party with Oregon Coast clammerpainter Ben Soeby will be the featured artist in the Chessman Gallery throughout the month of September. His show of owls, sardines, clams and gulls, rendered in prismacolor on wood, will open on Friday, Sept. 7. There will be wine and refreshments, and a chance to meet the artist, from 5-7 p.m. at the Cultural Center, 540 NE Hwy. 101.

Ben Soeby, aka The Reverend Benny Bob, earned his bachelor’s degree in fine arts from Oregon State University, where he focused on sculpture and printmaking. He learned to make small works of art in his travels, including three trips to Europe and longer stints in American Samoa and Chiapas, Mexico.

“That’s when I became comfortable working small and with limited supplies, and found objects,” he said.

Soeby’s work has been shown at galleries in Portland, during Last Thursday and First Thursday art walks, and is also on display at Volta, in Lincoln City. His was recently chosen to grace the new cards at the Driftwood Public Library.

The Rev. Benny Bob is also appreciated further afield, in group exhibits at places like the Spruill Gallery in Atlanta. One reviewer, Felicia Feaster of Creative Loafing Atlanta, said Soeby was “an über-outsider whose obsession with fishing suggests an Oregonfolk answer to the charismaticreligious tendencies of our own homegrown folkies.”

Soeby loves fishing, crabbing and clamming, and often interprets the natural world onto

pieces of recycled wood. From “Gunfighter Owl with a Heart” and “Seagull King,” to depictions of cats, bats and anchovies, he finds humor and soul in strangely normal places.

“I continue to enjoy working small, making art that often has much to do with what I have seen, done or imagined recently.

I enjoy working on material that

Dance the night away Attention, ballroom dancers and fans of Big Band music.

The Lincoln Pops Orchestra, an 18-piece band voted “Best Live Music 2011” in Lincoln County, will bring their vintage sound to the Lincoln City Cultural Center for a dance concert on Saturday, Sept. 8.

The doors will open at 6:30 p.m., with music to start at 7 p.m.

The Pops will be playing classics from the swing era, with plenty of danceable rhythms and Latin favorites. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door, with snacks, sodas, water, beer and wine sold by the LCCC volunteers.

“The response to the Pops last concert, in July, was overwhelming. So we decided to bring these musicians back for more. The acoustics are great, the dancing is terrific, and we split the gate proceeds with the band. You can help raise money for two non-

profit arts organizations, and have a great time doing it,” said Niki Price, LCCC executive director.

Come to dance, with or without a partner, or just sit and listen to these classic American songs.

The Lincoln City Cultural Center offers performances, fine arts, art classes and visitor information inside the historic Delake School building at 540 NE Hwy. 101. The September event calendar also features the ukulele pop of the Craig Chee Band on Sept. 15, and the World Music duo of Antonio Calogero and Paul McCandless on Sept. 22.

Kernville resident Bud Gray is throwing a party with a difference on Saturday, Sept. 8, inviting people to an old-time community get-together at his farm in return for donations of everything from pet food to musical instruments to help those in need.

Guests are asked to bring a dish for the potluck “feeding frenzy, which runs from 3 to 4 p.m., and to bring any drinks in returnable aluminum cans, which will be cashed in to raise funds for a needy family.

Gray is also accepting donations of working musical instruments to pass on to gifted children from needy families.

No pets or children are allowed.

Gray’s place is located at milepost 1 on the Salmon River Highway. People are asked to park considerately. A drive-through will be available for people who want to make a donation but can’t stay for the party.

auction, quilt workshop Depoe Bay quilter Laura Martin will lead instruction on making an “arrowhead” quilt block during a workshop from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sept. 14 at the Fellowship Hall of Atonement Lutheran Church in Newport.

The Oregon Coastal Quilters Guild is sponsoring the event.

Martin has won numerous awards at the OCQG quilt shows since joining the guild in 2006.

The arrowhead block is a versatile block, lending itself to various color/fabric choices, from scrappy to an eye-catching quilt of just two colors. It works well for small quilts such as table runners and wall hangings, as well as for large bed quilts, and is suitable for all skill levels, from beginner to advanced. The cost for non-guild-members is $34.

For more information or to take the class, call Judy McCoy at 541-563-3007 or Joan Johnson at 541-547-5498.

OCQG is a non-profit organization founded in 1991. Goals of the group are to promote fellowship

among quilters; to promote knowledge and appreciation of quilts and quilt making; and to sponsor and support quilting activities. During 2011, guild members made and donated hundreds of quilts and other handmade articles to various Lincoln County organizations. and

they are on track to do the same in 2012. The more than 180 members of OCQG live throughout Lincoln County and beyond. Additional information about the guild is on their website, oregoncoastalquilters.org.
