A letter demanding local control over COVID-19 protocols drafted by the Hays CISD board and Superintendent Dr. Eric Wright was sent to Gov. Greg Abbott and the Texas Education Agency (TEA) on Aug. 30. At the board meeting Aug. 30, some board members were outspoken about their desire for a mask mandate, despite their hands being tied legally. “Once upon a time, people told us they wanted us to have local control,” said board member Merideth Keller. “I guess that was only when it was going to be controlled one way.” While Abbott’s Executive Order GA-36 bans mask mandates, the district is looking for other solutions to mitigate the spread of COVID as the Texas Legislature debates what districts can and cannot do. For weeks, parents have attended board meetings to state their case for or against a mask mandate. During this meeting, all five parents that showed up to speak were in favor of a mandate. Board president Vanessa Petrea expressed her frustration with how the board is unable to legally handle the situation, saying that she is going “on the record” in favor of a mask mandate and that local control is desired and needed in order to enforce one. “They want this mask mandate prohibition as law, not just a governor’s order,” Petrea said. “That’s a problem for us. This is a scorched earth legal effort by our governor. Know that.” As active COVID infections in the district more than doubled into the second week of school, from 56 to 134 cases, many parents have expressed concern

Hays CISD seeks local control over COVID protocols
No ICU beds, so where do you go? No ICU beds are available in Trauma Service Area O (TSA-O), which treats patients in 11 counties, including Hays and Travis. COVID-19 conditions have strained emergency room services, and doctors want residents to know where to go when in need of medical attention. COVID-19 has been a major culprit in the increasing number of patients in the ICU and in the hospital. Hospitals are still seeing the regular emergency cases, but now there is the addition of patients caused by the COVID-19 surge, said local Emergency Care Physician, Dr. Michael Banyasz. As of Sept. 5 there were 518 available ICU beds, nearly half of them, or 245, are occupied by COVID-19 patients, with the remainder occupied by patients with other illnesses. Doctors want patients to know where to go to get the best level of care for their case, especially with the stress put on emergency services. “Most emergency rooms are busy even in normal times, without COVID,” said Banyasz.

REMEMBERING 9-11 Locals reflect on a day war was waged on American soil If you’re old enough, most of us remember where we were twenty years ago on Sept. 11 when two jets were taken hostage and flown into New York City’s Twin Towers. We asked some of our local readers for their memories of 9-11 and here’s what they shared.

My biggest motivation and inspiration was to join the military and to personally take the fight to the Taliban. I got to join the Army and got deployed over seas.

KELLIE OSBORN I was a freshman in high school, in Comfort, Texas, I came out of my first period English class to be told by someone in Band that a plane hit the Pentagon. I ran across campus to my second period history class, turned the TV on to CNN, and watched the second plane hit live while I was sitting on the top of my desk crying.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “We’re at the most dangerous point of the pandemic for children and the state has stripped away the most critical tool to keep students healthy.” –Lacy Waller, Hays CISD parent of two boys. Story on page 1
Hays Free Press/News-Dispatch • September 8, 2021
Answer this for me ... If y’all are like me, we have a go-to guy (or gal) for advice on solving some problem. Like when you have a computer issue or your car is making a funny noise. Some folks might have someone on speed dial whom they’ll call to get help with a crossword puzzle. I suspect some of y’all know at least one person whom you believe have all the answers. Due to my medical training and decades of doctoring 4-legged critters, I often get calls about friends’ pets. And due to my lengthy personal medical history, I also get asked how to treat certain physiological maladies. Occasionally I get questions about wildlife and how to “relocate” them from manicured lawns, but I’ll be the first to say that I don’t have all the answers. There are some things I just don’t know, like… How does everyone I know own a car with its warranty about to expire? My truck is 16 years old and I had no idea it still has a warranty. Why do some folks refuse to accept the concept of climate change even as they watch their house float down Main Street? Why can Matthew McConaughey not use any deodorant and smell great while most men’s body odor would resemble that of a dead skunk plucked out of a porta-potty? Why does road construction in front of public schools begin the week before school starts instead of early June? Why are so many Americans more concerned over Afghan citizens than our children in neighborhood schools? Why can I eat jalapeno peppers without getting heartburn but one bite of a kosher dill pickle will light up my esophagus like Mount Vesuvius? Why do so many people refuse to get an FDA-approved vaccine but have no problem
Crow’s Nest by Clint Younts
ingesting a livestock dewormer? I might’ve found the answer to this question. After closely reading the label on a bottle of ivermectin, it is approved for treating internal parasites in jackasses. What happened to our educational system that has turned out so many idiots who will believe everything they read in social media? Why do bicyclists believe they don’t have to stop at red lights or obey other traffic laws? Speaking of traffic, why do 3 out of 4 motorists have no idea how to use their turn indicators, something installed in cars since 1939? Young drivers must believe this stick is for hanging their masks on to air out. How can some imported residents constantly complain about the summer weather in Texas and not pack up and return to their home state where an 87-degree day is considered “dangerously hot”? Why do some people say, “She’s beautiful inside and out”. Do they have X-ray vision? Why do folks move into huge subdivisions alongside a two-lane country road and then complain about the traffic? How does a feral hog know it’s safe to root up my yard on the night I’m passed out in my recliner? What has caused such division in our country? After we were attacked by foreign enemies on December 7, 1941 and again on September 11, 2001, American stood united. But now, as our nation is currently under attack by a foreign entity, only half of us are fighting for our country. United we stand, divided we fall. Please get vaccinated. crowsnest78610 @gmail.com

Moving heaven, earth and a daughter to college Many parents my age are currently experiencing empty nest syndrome/euphoria as they send their children off to college in hopes that, someday, their “babies” will graduate and come back home to pick up all of the junk they left crammed under their beds. For my wife and I, this condition is more like multiple nest disorder – since we still have two kids at home after moving our eldest and most expensive daughter into a lavish four-bedroom college townhome festooned with all of the latest overpriced swag from Urban Outfitters. The ordeal of moving our daughter into her new “crib” actually started last spring, when she began stockpiling unknown merchandise in massive shipping boxes that were specifically designed to give me a hernia. Then came moving day, when we packed enough clothing, linens, electronics, decorative string lights, salt lamps, cosmetics, and a few uncomfortable humans into our vehicles to make another bad reboot of “The Beverly Hillbillies.” We were only able to salvage a minimal level of coolness thanks to the chassis of our beleaguered 2013 Ford Expedition sitting so close to the ground that I felt compelled to play the “Lowrider” song on repeat throughout the 3 ½-hour trip. When we arrived at the townhome, I was actually excited by the prospect of finally using the hand truck that my dad gifted to me out of pity sometime in the early twenty-teens. Thank goodness my daughter’s bedroom is only up one flight of incredibly narrow stairs!

in regular contact with us. Along with “Facetiming” us most evenings to report on dates she has taken with our credit cards to concerts, restaurants, and Target, she occasionally calls us to address typical college-student household issues–like trying to convince us that fitted sheets were invented by the Taliban. Oh, and she is trying to carve out a little time for classes and homework. Now that she’s out of the nest – sort of – I’m just looking forward to the day when she comes back home after graduation to pick up all of that junk she left crammed under her bed.

Road to Kabul via Saigon Like Afghanistan, Vietnam was a bipartisan debacle. From Kennedy to Johnson to Nixon to Ford. Wait. Ford? Gerald – yeah. The “accidental president” was the one who, like Joe Biden, made the call to end a futile and interminable war, then presided over the chaos that followed. As a presidential candidate, Richard Nixon illegally used back channels to subvert the Paris Peace Talks so that once elected he, not Lyndon Johnson, could claim to have delivered peace. Instead Watergate delivered us from Richard Nixon. So the job fell to Ford. Is Vietnam relevant as we consider where we’ve been and what sent our troops home on a one-airstrip airport in Kabul? Absolutely. In both wars, policy makers turned the civilian business of war-making over to the war machine. Just one more surge. One more offensive. One more infusion of troops. One more set of talks. One more hill. One more valley. In both Vietnam and Afghanistan our troops and tax dollars propped

spared conscription by a blessedly high draft number. Before that lucky roll of the drum, my peers and I read about the government’s policy of “Vietnamization” – trying to get the South Vietnamese to fight their own war while young American fought as their proxies. Didn’t work. Sound familiar? It was sobering, back in 1971, to think any of us might be sent with the expressed mission of being the last to die in that war. The final days of the Afghan engagement were also an American-crafted disaster. The disaster is far from over. Biden and his advisers completely underestimated the extent to which Afghan soldiers would stand up for their country. Now we know: Whenever we left, they would fold. How about ten more years to find that out? Twenty? If the generals and congressional hawks had their way, we’d still be there – and in Vietnam. Fifty years on.

On Aug. 30, parents at the school board meeting asked the district to mandate masks in school. Board President Vanessa Petrea and Secretary Merideth Keller were outspoken about wanting a mask mandate in school. But the board members said they would only call a special emergency meeting regarding masks if they had legal cover and if the cases continued to rise.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON TAX INCREASE
A tax rate of $0.0205 per $100 valuation has been proposed by the governing body of Plum Creek Conservation District. PROPOSED TAX RATE NO-NEW-REVENUE TAX RATE VOTER-APPROVAL TAX RATE
$0.0205 per $100 $0.0199 per $100 $0.0206 per $100
The no-new-revenue tax rate is the tax rate for the 2021 tax year that will raise the same amount of property tax revenue for Plum Creek Conservation District from the same properties in both the 2020 tax year and the 2021 tax year. The voter-approval rate is the highest tax rate that Plum Creek Conservation District may adopt without holding an election to seek voter approval of the rate. The proposed tax rate is greater than the no-new-revenue tax rate. This means that Plum Creek Conservation District is proposing to increase property taxes for the 2021 tax year. A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSED TAX RATE WILL BE HELD ON September 21, 2021 at 1:00 PM at PCCD Office Building, 1101 W. San Antonio St., Lockhart, TX. The proposed tax rate is not greater than the voter-approval tax rate. As a result, Plum Creek Conservation District is not required to hold an election at which voters may accept or reject the proposed tax rate. However, you may express your support for or opposition to the proposed tax rate by contacting the members of the Elections Administrator in the Elections Department of Plum Creek Conservation District at their offices or by attending the public hearing mentioned above.

The first Miss America from Texas An 18-year-old brunette from Tyler waited anxiously with nine other finalists for the winner of the “Miss America” beauty pageant to be announced on Sept. 12, 1942. Ask any Texan how many young women from the Lone Star State have been chosen the most beautiful in the land, and the answer most likely will be two. He or she may even know they came from the same hometown and reigned four years apart in the 1970s, but hardly anyone remembers the first Miss Texas to take Atlantic City by storm. Jo-Carroll Dennison may have been born in Arizona, but she was a Texan through and through. Her grandfather was a Panhandle pioneer, who drove cattle up the Chisholm Trail, and she grew up on the tent-show circuit entertaining smalltown audiences. By the time she reached her mid-teens, Jo-Carroll was tired of living out of a suitcase and wanted to put down permanent roots. Soon after graduating from high school in Tyler, she took a job as a legal secretary with former U.S. Senator Earle Mayfield. When a local banker offered to sponsor her in the Miss Tyler contest, Jo-Carroll turned him down at first. “I refused until he

Cohn, the head of Columbia Pictures, all gave us a wedding party, which was pretty big-time stuff. “But the luckiest part of all was that Gene Kelly and his marvelously talented and intellectual group of friends liked me as well as Phil. At Gene’s on any given night, folks like Judy Garland, Noel Coward, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe and Fred Astaire might drop in and entertain or play charades or just talk.” Jo-Carroll and Silvers went their separate ways in 1950. The bald comic tickled America’s funny bone as Sgt. Bilko on the hit TV show, while she worked in early television as a production assistant in New York. Texans had to wait 29 years for another homegrown “Miss America.” Lone Star lightning struck twice as two girls from Denton, Phyllis George in 1971 and Shirley Cothran
in 1975, conquered Atlantic City. Jo-Carroll eventually remarried and returned to California to raise a family. She was later co-director of the Los Angeles Theatre Company and in charge of community relations for a hospice. Speaking from her retirement home in Palm Springs in 2001, Jo-Carroll Dennison said, “Even now I am invariably introduced as ‘a former Miss America.’ After the inevitable question ‘What year?’ comes the question ‘What state were you from?’ And I answer with a special kind of pride, ‘I was Miss Texas.’” “Unforgettable Texans” brings to life the once famous people no one remembers today.

The Texas Crossword and Sudoku Puzzle
Hays COVID Protocol Continued from pg. 1
about the spread of misinformation around the virus, such as the lack of mask efficacy. Parent Marc van Bree said that he feels that those who are seeking a mask mandate and other COVID safety protocols are having to do all the work to achieve that. A mask mandate with a choice to opt-out will ‘flip the script,’ he added “I feel like those who want public safety have to jump through all the hoops,” van Bree said. “Those who simply yell ‘freedom’ get to do whatever they want with disregard to public safety. They should have to put in the work.” Community focus needs to be on what can be done collectively to keep kids in class, and masks are a solution for this, Keller said. Telling a student to put peanuts away because their neighbor is allergic isn’t infringing upon their rights, but preventing their neighbor from going into anaphylactic shock — and the same could be said about masking, she explained. “If we celebrate [masks] and make that part of our culture, that it’s good to help our neighbors, we’ll be a lot nicer to each other,” Keller said. Keller acknowledged that masks have an impact on mental health, but that there is a hierarchy of needs, and services like socialemotional learning can
“I’m too happy to say very much,” Jo-Carroll gushed into the microphone that carried her words across the nation, “but I love Atlantic City and I hope to do much to repay it for this honor. I want to thank the other girls in the contest who have been so kind to me.” In a glowing description of Miss America 1942, a newspaper reporter admired her “dark brown, softly curling hair sweeping to her shoulders, brown eyes flecked with green and a smooth, creamy complexion.” When her reign was over, Jo-Carroll signed a movie contract with Twentieth Century Fox. During her eight years in Hollywood, she married comedian Phil Silvers. “Through Phil I met almost every well-known person in show business,” she recalled in a 1980s interview. “Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Harry
help alleviate problems that can arise because of mask wearing. “Not going to class, having your classes shut down, not being able to participate or not being healthy are higher up on the hierarchy of needs,” Keller said. “We can address problems that I personally had in my own home, about masks being very difficult on kids and how they feel in their connection to school and teachers, with mentors and counseling.” During the meeting, Wright gave updates on district-wide COVID protocols, including potential vaccine clinics, plans for classroom air purifiers, mask availability on campuses, spaced out lunch schedules, bus and classroom seating arrangements and what will warrant a campus closure due to COVID. Additionally, Hays CISD will begin updating its COVID case dashboard daily. Letters sent home with students at the end of the day will be revised and reflect classrooms with COVID cases. Board members reiterated that they are keeping an eye on the courts and will only be able to call a special meeting regarding masks if they receive legal cover and the number of COVID cases continues to rise. Until then, the district will continue to highly encourage masks, but cannot enforce them.

Jags tame Lions 56-8 STAFF REPORT
Two games. Two blowouts. Who’s next? One might wonder if that’s what the Johnson Jaguars and their fan base are thinking following the team’s second straight 40+ point win in as many weeks. This time, the victims were the Lockhart Lions who had no answers as the Jags comfortably coasted to 56-8 win.
Truthfully speaking, the game was pretty much over within the first few minutes as the Jags had an extended first quarter house party. Five Jaguar touchdowns in the first quarter sapped the wind out of the Lions’ sails and put Johnson ahead 35-0. Johnson’s barrage consisted of three total touchdowns scored by junior quarterback Jesse Medina, a trick play touch-

down thrown by wide receiver Weston Bailey, a 6-yard touchdown run by running back Ethan Ybarra and a partridge in a pear tree. Cementing it together were a series of successful squib kickoff recoveries by Jags special teams that kept Lockhart’s offense off the field and the Jags in control. Johnson added another 14-point blitz in the second quarter and led 49-0 at halftime.

hauled in four passes for 110 yards and two touchdowns. “We talk about starting fast and we play with tempo and that’s something we take pride in,” Jaguar head coach Steve Hoffman said in an interview posted on Hays CISD’s Twitter page. “The first series, we went out there and had a three and out. Our offense went out there and the offense was firing on all cylinders, drive after drive.
We’re really proud of them. That’s how we work. We work hard. We practice fast. That’s what we did tonight.” Johnson had 561 yards of total offense in the game. Oppositely, the Jaguars held the Lions to 238 total yards. Thus far, the Jaguar “Black Shirt” defense (not official, but we’re happy to trademark the nickname) has only allowed 14 points through two games.

Lobos pummel Knights for home opening win STAFF REPORT
The Lehman Lobos discovered Friday there’s no place like home. Three scintillating touchdowns from Lobo senior Tanner Johnson jockeyed the Lobos past the McCallum Knights 38-24 to capture the program’s first win in their home opener in ten years. Friday was also the first time the Class of 2022 Lobo senior football players won a game at home during their high school careers. Tied at 7-7 early in the first quarter, Lehman exploded for 17 unanswered points as they snagged a commanding 24-7 lead late in the second. Johnson, who plays on both offense and defense, was an important factor in 14 of those 17 points. One touchdown was a 22-yard strike to Johnson from quarterback Joey Guajardo, while Johnson ran home a 39-yard interception return for a touchdown. Johnson caught six passes for 139 yards and two touchdowns receiving and rushed three times for 32 yards. Johnson, who was a force all over the field Friday, also had two interceptions and four total tackles. Guajardo went 5 of 9 for 138 yards and had two touchdowns passing. “Last week, we took a hard L (loss). We didn’t feel too good,” Johnson said in an interview posted on Hays CISD social media channels. “This week, we played hard, we rebounded.

Cereal mascot puns aside, the Tigers (2-0) surely must’ve eaten their Wheaties on Friday as they out-slugged the Hays Hawks 70-42 in a game that had 1,193 combined yards and 132 plays ran. In the spotlight was Tiger junior quarterback Austin Novosad and senior running back Preston Alford. The one-two combination accounted for eight of the Tigers’ ten touchdowns in the game. Alford made a trio of house calls in the first half, the biggest a 79yard touchdown run that pushed the Tigers ahead, 21-7, early in the second

Dripping Springs’ junior quarterback Austin Novosad completed 13 of 22 passes, with four for touchdowns, for 295 yards against visiting Hays. “The whole line provided me with great protection up front allowing us to really work the passing game,” Novosad said after the 70-42 win.
Dripping Springs’ offense revved its engines and expanded its lead to 56-28 after three quarters, led by a pair of touchdown runs by Alford and running back Luke Hudson and a touchdown pass from Novosad to Kyle Koch. Novosad went 13-for22 for 295 yards and four passing touchdowns; Alford ran the ball 13 times for 269 yards and four rushing touchdowns. Kock snagged four receptions for 133 yards and two touchdowns. A fourth quarter touchdown pass from Novosad to wide receiver Austin Walker and the Tigers led 63-28 and looked to put the game out of reach. No one told the Hawks the game was over. Two fourth quarter passing touchdowns by a Hawk team that entered the game with only four total passing attempts cut Dripping Springs’ lead to 63-42 and put some late pressure on the Tigers. Hawk junior running back Chris Bruce ran for 212 yards on 12 carries and had a touchdown. Wide receiver Marcus Taylor caught four passes for 146 yards and two touchdowns. Hawk sophomore quarterback Tyler McInvale went 11-for-16 for 184 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. Dripping Springs put the game on ice with a Hudson 13 yard touchdown run. Dripping Springs accumulated 663 total yards to Hays’ 561.

Hays CISD may consider guest teacher benefits
“We will do what we can to take care of our guest teachers. We could not operate a school district without them.”
BY MEGAN WEHRING
HAYS CISD — Many school districts are in dire need of substitute teachers and Hays CISD is no exception. The district continues its search for more guest or substitute teachers as there are increased absences from regular staff due to positive COVID-19 tests and required quarantine. But, guest teachers do not currently have leave benefits or compensation they could use in the event they may get exposed and have to quarantine.

Buda’s Market in the Park and other upcoming events On this September morning, the sweltering heat did not forget to visit the residents of Buda, but they did not care. Vendors of all ages, including an 11-year-old boy with a 3-D printing machine,
showed up to sell their items. Whether residents were looking for knives from a Vietnam Veteran, or jams and preserves from a cheerful woman, or they simply wanted to listen to live music, the market
had all of their needs. Market in the Park is held every first Saturday of the month, from May through September, from 9:00 a.m. to 1 p.m. Special events are scheduled. In conjunction with the
Buda Rodeo, a full-day event will take place on Saturday, Oct. 16. Then a witches mart from 5:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 30 and a Veterans Day event from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 6.

public funds, which we wouldn’t be able to do. Some guest teachers are committed to long-term, equivalent to full-time, assignments for teachers who are out on leave for extended periods of time. We may be able to offer a type of leave benefit for them, but we have not yet reached a determination on that.” Hays CISD has not made an official decision regarding leave benefits yet.

Inmate Outsourcing Continued from pg. 1
requesting a $2 million line item for outsourcing inmates during the upcoming fiscal year. For the time being, the rate to outsource inmates has risen in the multiple county jails in contract with Hays County. Commissioners were scrutinized by Dan Lyon, a resident who does not sit out a court meeting, on their planning. Lyon told commissioners that residents never had a chance to vote on the expansion of the Hays County Jail, which they knew was needed. Voters approved the Hays County bond package to expand the jail in 2016. In early jail expansion discussions, the county commissioners had the option to expand the jail to hold 1,000 beds, but instead, they voted on providing 603 beds. The jail can only fill 543 inmate beds because the Texas jail standards state that there has to be a 10% buffer of unfilled beds. Still, the Hays County Jail is undergoing construction and the Sheriff’s office said it does not know when it will be ready for use. It costs approximately $80 to $100 per inmate, per day, to stay in the Hays County Jail. Blanco and Burnet counties will enact a price increase for receiving Hays County inmates
Blanco County will increase rates from $45 per day, per inmate, to $52 and Burnet County will increase rates from $55 per inmate, per day, to $62. effective Oct. 1; that increase has been approved by the Hays County commissioners. Blanco County will increase rates from $45 per day, per inmate, to $52 and Burnet County will increase rates from $55 per inmate, per day, to $62. On Aug. 17, Hays County began sending inmates to Red River County Jail, near the Texas-Oklahoma border, a round-trip of 12 hours. Red River can receive up to 20 inmates from Hays County, at the cost of $50 per inmate, per day. Hays County contracted with Red River because other jails it outsources to have experienced COVID-19 outbreaks, according to the Hays County Sheriff’s Office. Based on a trend which can be seen on the county’s jail dashboard , it may be expected that the number of inmates will begin to decrease. During the summer months, Hays County has more inmates than any other season, Shell said. During the summer months, the Hays County inmate population reached over 600, but during the other sea-
sons, the numbers were between the 400s and low 500s. Shell said the increase of inmate population can be attributed to more people visiting the county in the summer and more people coming through the interstate. County agencies arrest people who are not Hays County residents more often in the summer, he explained. Even if the jail population becomes lower, Hays County continues to grow and will continue to need money for outsourcing inmates, Commissioner Walt Smith said. Some inmates, like those in for murder charges or sexual assault with probable cause, will be in the facility for a long time, said Shell. But there are individuals in jail that can get through the system at a faster rate and it can start from the minute they get there, Shell added. “There’s no way I can support a budget without outsourcing dollars,” Smith told other commissioners. The proposed budget will give $878,000 to outsourcing inmates, but the budget will not be finalized until Sept. 21.
a nurse hotline, which can be accessed through large medical organizations, to help a patient assess where they should go or what they should do, Banyasz said. It may not always be easy to determine which category a patient falls into, especially under moments of pressure. Minor fractures might be on areas such as fingers, toes or hands. Major fractures would be to long bones, the chest or neck, Banyasz explained. If it’s a major fracture, that would require a visit to the emergency department. And if a patient suspects having a heart attack or stroke, they should go to the emergency room. “When in doubt, if you’re not sure where to go, err on the side of caution and go to the emergency room,” Banyasz said. Besides using these methods to assess the type of medical facility to use, Banyasz stressed that the best way to help during this surge is to get the COVID-19 vaccine. About 90% of COVID-19 cases coming into the emergency rooms are unvaccinated. “They are seeing a variety of ages compared to the last surge,” Banyasz
said. “Younger populations, under 50 years old, are more prone to COVID than before. Delta is affecting everyone, from young to old.” As of Sept. 3 in Hays County, there are 56 residents hospitalized with COVID-19. Of those, 47 are unvaccinated and 31 in the ICU. There are nine vaccinated residents, two of which are in the ICU.

Continued from pg. 1 “It’s helpful for patients to get themselves to the best level of care.”
WHEN TO SEE A PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN Primary care is a good option when there are chronic complaints such as medication management, diabetic management and pain management.
WHEN TO GO TO AN URGENT CARE CENTER Urgent care is an extension of the doctor’s office, but it is open later and has a smaller copay, if your insurance company approves of urgent care. These centers can handle mild illnesses as well as traumas, sutures, abscess drainage and minor broken bones.
WHEN TO GO TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM Emergency rooms are for patients who feel their life, limbs or vision is at stake. If that is the case, call 911 and immediately go to the emergency department. If a person suspects they are having a heart attack, stroke or major trauma, those are emergency conditions that need to be immediately addressed. Another option is to use
