ommunity Hospital of San Bernardino (CHSB) and St. Bernardine Medical Center (SBMC) are trying to make a difficult situation a little easier for their healthcare workers with the implementation of an onsite grocery store. At CHSB, a section of the cafeteria has been set-up as a mini-mart with shopping available every day of the week. At SBMC, their food and nutrition services department has started an ordering process with groceries being bagged on the go for staff to pickup on their way out the door.

“We are so proud of the continued dedication of our entire staff and physicians that we want to do anything we can to ease their way during this time,” states Doug Kleam, SBMC Hospital President. “It’s hard at the end of an exhausting day to think about going to the store, so we hope this program provides more time for our staff to spend with their families.”

inco de Mayo, or the fifth of May, is a holiday that celebrates the date of the Mexican army’s 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the FrancoMexican War. Cinco de Mayo

2018 occurs on Saturday, May 5.

A relatively minor holiday in Mexico, in the United States Cinco de Mayo has evolved into a commemoration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with large Mexican-

American populations.

Cinco de Mayo History In 1861, Benito Juárez—a lawyer and member of the indigenous Zapotec tribe—was elected president of Mexico. At

the time, the country was in financial ruin after years of internal strife, and the new president was forced to default on debt payments to European governments.

In response, France, Britain and Spain sent naval forces to Veracruz, Mexico, demanding repayment. Britain and Spain negotiated with Mexico and withdrew their forces.

France, however, ruled by Napoleon III, decided to use the opportunity to carve an empire out of Mexican territory. Late in 1861, a well-armed French fleet stormed Veracruz, landing a large force of troops and driving President Juárez and his government into retreat.

The Battle of Puebla Certain that success would come swiftly, 6,000 French troops under General Charles Latrille de Lorencez set out to attack Puebla de Los Angeles, a small town in east-central Mexico. From his new headquarters in the north, Juárez rounded up a ragtag force of 2,000 loyal Cinco, cont. on next pg.

Volunteers worked hard to distribute food boxes to 2,100 families from thoughout the county.

As grocery chains face restocking issues, safety concerns, and restricted operating hours, it can be difficult for the essential healthcare workers to get items they need for their families.

Thanks to the hospital’s partnership with distributors like U.S. Foods, the cafeteria is able to purchase items and sell them to staff

at our cost.

“Our community continues to rally around our healthcare workers and first responders and we must do the same,” shares June Collison, CHSB Hospital President. “If we can help one another, even with simple things like groceries, we will get through this, together.” had been installed as emperor of Mexico in 1864 by Napoleon, was captured and executed by Juárez’s forces. Puebla de Los Angeles was renamed for General Zaragoza, who died of typhoid fever months after his historic triumph there.

Cinco de Mayo in Mexico Within Mexico, Cinco de Mayo is primarily observed in the state of Puebla, where Zaragoza’s unlikely victory occurred, although other parts of the country also take part in the celebration.

Traditions include military parades, recreations of the Battle of Puebla and other festive events.

For many Mexicans, however, May 5 is a day like any other: It is not a federal holiday, so offices, banks and stores remain open.

Cinco de Mayo in the U.S.

Cinco men—many of them either indigenous Mexicans or of mixed ancestry—and sent them to Puebla.

The vastly outnumbered and poorly supplied Mexicans, led by Texas-born General Ignacio Zaragoza, fortified the town and prepared for the French assault.

On May 5, 1862, Lorencez gathered his army—supported by heavy artillery—before the city of Puebla and led an assault.

How long did the battle last?

The battle lasted from daybreak to early evening, and when the French finally retreated they had lost nearly 500 soldiers. Fewer than 100 Mexicans had been killed in the clash.

Although not a major strategic win in the overall war against the French, Zaragoza’s success at the Battle of Puebla on May 5 represented a great symbolic victory for the Mexican government and bolstered the resistance movement. In 1867—thanks in part to military support and political pressure from the United States, which was finally in a position to aid its besieged neighbor after the end of the Civil War—France finally withdrew.

The same year, Austrian Archduke Ferdinand Maximilian, who

In the United States, Cinco de Mayo is widely interpreted as a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage, particularly in areas with substantial Mexican-American populations.

Chicano activists raised awareness of the holiday in the 1960s, in part because they identified with the victory of indigenous Mexicans (such as Juárez) over European invaders during the Battle of Puebla.

Today, revelers mark the occasion with parades, parties, mariachi music, Mexican folk dancing and traditional foods such as tacos and mole poblano.

Confusion with Mexican Independence Day Many people outside Mexico mistakenly believe that Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of Mexican independence, which was declared more than 50 years before the Battle of Puebla.

Independence Day in Mexico (Día de la Independencia) is commemorated on September 16, the anniversary of the revolutionary priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla’s famous “Grito de Dolores” (“Cry of Dolores”), a call to arms that amounted to a declaration of war against the Spanish colonial government in 1810.

Newsom issues additional relief for student loans, sign executive

G

order to stop loan gar nishments, DMV deadlines extended

overnor Gavin Newsom announced last Thursday, Apr. 23, that most private student loan servicers have agreed to provide payment and other relief to borrowers, including more than 1.1 million Californians with privately held student loans. He also signed an executive order to stop debt collectors from garnishing COVID-19-related financial assistance.

“Californians are reeling from the financial impact of COVID19, the recently unemployed and those with student loan debt are among the hardest hit,” said Governor Newsom. “The last thing they deserve is to see more money withheld as they try to put food on the table and pay their rent or

mortgage.”

The federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act provided muchneeded relief for students with federal loans, including the suspension of monthly payments, interest, and involuntary collection activity until September 30, 2020.

However, the CARES Act did not address millions of student loan borrowers with federal loans that are not owned by the U.S. government as well as loans made by private lenders. The initiative announced today gives direct help to those borrowers.

Under the new initiative by California and other states, students with commercially owned Federal

Family Education Loan or privately held student loans who are struggling to make payments due to the COVID-19 pandemic may also be eligible for expanded relief. Relief options include providing a minimum of 90 days forbearance, waiving late payment fees, ensuring that no borrower is subject to negative credit reporting, and helping eligible borrowers enroll in other assistance programs.

Governor Newsom also signed an executive order that exempts garnishment for any individuals receiving federal, state or local government financial assistance in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes recovery rebates under the CARES Act.

Funds may still be garnished for child support, family support, spousal support or criminal restitution for victims.

Some of the issues addressed in the executive order include granting a 60-day extension for customers on several Department of Motor Vehicles deadlines, including for recently expired drivers’ licenses and identification cards, to reflect public compliance with the COVID-19 stay at home order. It also suspends late fees from being applied to expired vehicle registrations.

Additionally, the order will allow certain posting, filing and notice requirements under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to be satisfied

through electronic means to allow public access and involvement consistent with COVID-19 public health concerns.

Finally, the executive order will temporarily allow retailers, particularly grocery stores, to provide bags to consumers without charge, and to pause redemption of beverage containers in-store to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. The executive order also temporarily suspends the requirement for recycling centers to hold a minimum number of hours of operation and directs the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) to develop and issue operating guidelines.

County opens up testing, reminds residents to continue to socially distance County to Open Up Criteria for Testing Beginning this Thursday, April 30 at all testing locations and the Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, people age 65 and older and health care or public safety workers can get tested, regardless if they are experiencing any symptoms. This is in addition to residents who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms (fever, cough or shortness of breath).

Important Reminder: Non Essential Businesses Remain CLOSED In accordance with a County Health Order effective April 25, the County of San Bernardino has re-opened County-operated parks and lakes and is allowing the opening of city-owned and private parks, lakes, trails, and golf courses on a limited scalefor passive recreation.

There are no changes in the Health Order regarding restrictions still in place on non-essential businesses. Essential businesses are allowed to remain open with restrictions. To read more on what is considered an essential or nonessential business, as well as more details on what comprises passive recreation, please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) on the County’ COVID-19 website.

Social Distancing While Golfing As County residents enjoy our wonderful parks and recreation facilities, it’s critical to remember — and practice — the social distancing measures we’ve been following.

One sport that allows you to get fresh air and sunshine while social distancing is golf. Here are a few guidelines to help ensure your safety and that of your companions.

Maintain social distancing — stay at least six feet from the other players.

Do not share golf carts, unless your golf partner is a housemate.

Each golfer should travel in his or her own cart, and courses are required to offer this option.

Remember to bring and wear your facemask when in proximity to others.

Arrive at the course with your golf shoes already on. Clubhouses will be closed so you won’t be able to change at the course.

Bring your own water bottle(s).

As a reminder, pro shops, restaurants and other clubhouse services are not open. To-go food orders, however, are allowed. Please, let’s all adhere to these important rules so we can continue to avail ourselves of the beautiful outdoors while keeping each other safe and healthy!

Tips for Helping Your Children Cope Everyday life — difficult and stressful enough under normal circumstances — has certainly become much more challenging during this medical crisis.

This heightened stress and anxiety not only afflicts adults. Children are perhaps even more influenced by worried parents and caregivers and dramatic changes to their day-to-day routines.

To help parents and others who engage with young people, we asked Dr. Veronica Kelly, director of the San Bernardino County Department of Behavioral Health, to share some suggestions for helping children cope during these unprecedented time. Following are a few of Dr. Kelly’s useful tips: Stay calm and reassure your kids. Children look to their caregivers for clues on how to react to a particular situation, so remember that it’s not only what you say, but how you say it.

Limit their screen time. Many young people are attending school remotely, so it’s neither possible nor desirable to ban the use of computers, smartphones and iPads. However, you should encourage children to reduce their

online activities and engage in pursuits such as reading, playing board games or card games, cooking, helping around the house, playing a musical instrument or working on crafts.

Residents of San Bernardino County may also call the COVID19 helpline at (909) 387-3911 for general information and resources about the virus. The phone line is NOT for medical calls and is

available Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. If you have questions about social services, please call 211.

Avoid “blaming language.” A virus can make anyone sick — young or old, male or female, black or white. Moreover, those afflicted are not responsible for their condition. Avoid saying things that could lead to stigma.

Talk about “facts” vs. “feelings.” Separate objective facts from the emotional response to those facts. A fact is that the government has issued stay-at-home orders to help limit the spread of the virus. A feeling is how we feel in response to those orders. Both are legitimate — but it helps to maintain the distinction.

Maintain open and honest communication. Let your children know that you want them to ask questions and to share their thoughts and feelings. And let them know that much of what they’ve heard or read on the internet or social media is based on rumors and false information.

Keep communications simple.

Speak clearly and directly to your children; now is not the time to get cute or to use clever metaphors.

Provide information that is not only truthful, but also appropriate to their age and development level.

Ar rowhead Regional Medical Center physician h e a d s t o N e w Yo r k C i t y

hen Gov. Newsom issued an urgent request for California doctors to travel to New York City and support urgent medical needs there, Dr. Louis Tran answered the call.

Dr. Tran, an emergency room physician with the Arrowhead Regional Medical Center, flew to New York Thursday, Apr. 23, along with 19 other California doctors. He will be working at Elmhurst Hospital in Queens, where approximately 100 patients are currently intubated on ventilators and in critical condition.

been working extremely long hours, under extraordinarily stressful conditions, for several weeks without a break.

“They have been fantastic sharing information and insights that they’ve gained during this crisis — and that includes being candid about failures. I am so happy to be able to help relieve their burden so that another doctor or nurse can get some much-needed rest,” he said.

“When the governor sent a request for volunteers, I responded immediately; this is why I became a physician,” said Tran. “I not only get to help care for desperately ill people, but it gives me an incredible, hands-on learning opportunity that will be invaluable back at home in California.”

Dr. Tran said that approximately 280 medical professionals from around the country, including doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, technicians and others, are currently in New York to assist with the city’s intense medical needs.

He is scheduled to treat patients and help where needed for a period of two weeks, after which he will go into quarantine for another two weeks before returning to California.

Dr. Tran noted that he was impressed and humbled by the New York doctors, many of whom have

he University of Redlands, leading local efforts to support those affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, organized the donation of nearly 10,000 pounds of non-perishable food to Family Services Association of Redlands. The food, which was delivered Thursday, April 23 to replenish stocks that have been depleted due to the growing need to combat hunger within the region.

“We have always been committed to working hand-in-hand with our local community,” said University of Redlands President Ralph W. Kuncl. “Given the pressing needs caused by the pandemic, there is no better time than now to lend support to our longtime partner Family Service Association of Redlands, whose sole goal is to provide basic services to families who might otherwise go without.”

— will be distributed to the homeless and families in need throughout San Bernardino and Riverside counties.

“Community support was vital before the COVID-19 pandemic, but now during these unprecedented times, it is absolutely necessary,” stated Jill Prendergast, fund development manager, Family Service Association of Redlands. “This donation will allow us to put food on the table for those who have been affected by the COVID-19 crisis and those who are food insecure in general.”

These food donations are some of several ways the University of Redlands is helping the community during the COVID-19 pandemic. Other efforts include partnering with Loma Linda University Medical Center to offer walk-in medical services for the homeless on the main Redlands campus three times per week during the California “stay at home” period when many shelters that previously offered homeless services have closed.

The University of Redlands also donated food to Inland Harvest, a Redlands-based organization that feeds hungry people by transporting donated surplus food to established nonprofit feeding programs in the Inland Empire. About 3,000 pounds of food — 80 boxes of protein bars and 480 cans of food

In addition, the University’s athletic training staff donated personal protection equipment from their existing supplies to Redlands Community Hospital.

Helping the Helpless: LLU, U of Redlands of fer walk-in medical ser vices to homeless

oma Linda University and University of Redlands have partnered to offer free walk-in medical services for the homeless throughout the duration of the California order to shelter in place. The Redlands Walk-In Medical Services comes from both universities' commitment to service and advancing the health of the community.

The walk-in medical services is located at University of Redlands main campus in Hentschke Hall, Room 102 (chosen for its proximity to Sylvan Park and the availability of restroom facilities).

Hours of operation are Tuesday and Thursday 4-6 pm, and Saturday 5-6 pm.

Redlands Walk-In Medical Services is operated by the faculty of Loma Linda University School of Allied Health Professions, Department of Physician Assistant Sciences. The healthcare team is

composed of licensed and boardcertified PAs who are providing medical care to help the homeless and transient members of the Redlands community most at risk amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mark Milliron, MSC, MPA, PAC, assistant professor of Physician Assistant Sciences and the clinic’s coordinator, says the services being offered are in response to the California order to shelter in place. Many resources for obtaining food, showers and shelter have been closed to the homeless, and Milliron recognized an unmet need for medical care in this time of reduced services.

“These are challenging times as it is, and for those who are homeless and have chronic medical conditions, this becomes a daily fight for survival,” Milliron said.

“These are individuals who are at high risk. There is a very real chance that chronic health condi-

tions will worsen if untreated, and also that those untreated conditions will lead to a bad outcome in anyone who becomes infected with COVID-19.”

Milliron shared his concerns for the Redlands community with University of Redlands President Dr. Ralph W. Kuncl, and a partnership was born. Redlands Walk-In Medical Services will provide free medical treatment or medications for conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), diabetes, hypertension and other uncontrolled conditions.

If necessary, the clinic staff will provide screening and help refer patients to urgent care or emergency facilities for coronavirus testing. Patients will also receive hygiene kits containing a pair of clean socks, sanitizer, soap, deodorant, toothbrush, toothpaste and throat lozenges.

University is to continue the teaching and healing ministry of Jesus Christ, and I am proud of all those who have worked to get this together to help the members of “The mission of Loma Linda our community most in need during this international public health crisis,” Milliron said.
