HMH announces new survey process

Dictionary presentation: The Holstein Kiwanis club presented dictionaries to the Galva-Holstein third grade class Nov. 16. After they were handed out the group played “Stump the Teacher.” The students were divided into five groups and they picked out a hard word. The teachers had to guess the meaning of the word. It was a tie. Members who helped distribute the dictionaries were Keith Carstens, Harry Oakley, Adam Struck, Susan Endrulat and Sylvia Carstens. (Photo submitted)

Obituary Dorothy M. Wittrock Dec. 5, 1927 – Nov. 20, 2016 Dorothy was a homemaker and enjoyed gardening and canning many fruits and vegetables. She enjoyed garden club, was a hugger clown and was a member of Knit Wits. She was a member of U.M.W. and United Methodist Church in Holstein. She was employed by Holstein Elementary School, V.T.I. and Holstein Good Samaritan Society, cleaned many homes and enjoyed babysitting. She is survived by her children: Karen Gibbins of Kansas City, Mo., Linda Reincke (Leslie) of Denison, Robert Jr. (Luann) Wittrock of Cherokee, Richard (Wilma) Wittrock of Rockwell City and Diane (David) Scott of Holstein. She is also survived by 12 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren.

Online condolences can be made at nicklasdjensenfh. com.

Groundwater conditions good heading into Iowa’s driest season October was the first month since June for below normal rainfall in Iowa. Despite the drier month, stream flows remain high, and groundwater conditions are predominantly good as Iowa heads into the driest and most hydrologically stable four months of the year. Statewide average precipitation during October was about 0.6 inches less than normal. Unlike the previous four months, there were no widespread excessive rain events in Iowa. North central and northeast Iowa, which had seen exceptionally heavy rains in the previous two months, finally received a very welcome period of mostly dry. This was the warmest October since 2007 with temperatures averaging 4.5 degrees above normal. While a hard freeze on Oct. 13 ended the growing season for much of

the northwest there remain some areas including the Des Moines metro area, where a freeze has yet to occur. Streamflow conditions are above normal for the majority of the state. Since the last water summary update, streamflow conditions across the south central portion of the state decreased to the normal condition. The area of the state that is rated as abnormally dry continues to persist in south-central Iowa. The condition of the state is much better than it was a year ago and remains positive headed into the driest months of the year. The report is prepared by the technical staff from the Iowa DNR, the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship, IIHR— Hydroscience and Engineering and the U.S. Geological Survey, in col-

ages patients to participate in the survey. “We use the patient survey feedback to guide us in our ongoing efforts to provide outstanding medical care in a patient-centered manner,” he noted. “Switching to a phone methodology will allow us to be in touch with our patients more quickly than the mail surveys we’ve used in the past.” HealthStream Research will place confidential calls to randomly selected patients on behalf of HMH between the hours of 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. All calls are made from the Laurel, Md. Interviewing Center. The phone number that will show on caller ID is 615-846-8410. “We have always had outstanding participation with our mailed survey,” Nichols said. “We hope that these brief telephone interviews will make it even easier for more patients to provide feedback about their experience at HMH.”

Looking Back

To keep our readers better informed, funeral information will be posted to our website (www.holsteinadvance.com) within hours of receiving it at our office.

HOLSTEIN – Private family services for Dorothy M. Wittrock, 88, of Holstein were at Nicklas D. Jensen Funeral Home in Holstein. Nicklas D. Jensen Funeral Home of Holstein was in charge of arrangements. She died Nov. 20 at Unity Point Health–St. Luke’s in Sioux City. Dorothy Mae Lenz Wittrock was born Dec. 5, 1927, in Silver Township, Cherokee County, to Oscar and Ella Andresen Lenz. She attended Silver No. 6 country school. Dorothy and Robert Wittrock were married June 12, 1945, at the Methodist parsonage in Cherokee. They were married for 56 years. To this union, six children were born: Karen Ann, Sandra Kay, Linda Sue, Robert William, Richard Lee and Diane Delores.

Horn Memorial Hospital (HMH) has announced a change in its patient satisfaction survey process. Effective Jan. 1, surveys will be conducted by HealthStream Research, Inc., a nationally-recognized healthcare improvement firm. HMH will utilize a suite of perception surveys to monitor patient care delivered by employees and providers. The partnership with HealthStream will allow HMH staff to evaluate patient experiences on a year-round, day-to-day basis. HealthStream Research conducts telephone interviews with randomly selected patients shortly after an outpatient visit or an inpatient stay. Patients who choose to participate will provide confidential responses ranging from topics such as staff communication to the cleanliness and quietness of the hospital environment. HMH CEO, Chris Nichols, encour-

laboration with The Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management Department and the National Weather Service.

Forty years ago Six local girls will take the stage against other girls from around the county in the local Junior Miss competition held in Holstein on Dec. 5. The winner will receive a $200 scholarship from Midwest Industries in Ida Grove, while the first runner up receives a $125 scholarship from Ida County State Bank. Participants include Cindy Voss, Julie Otto, Margaret Witt, Deb Stocking, Joni Ehler and Sean Oakley. The possibility of salary increases for elected county officials apparently will have to wait until Miriam Hartley, a member of the Ida County Compensation board, comes back from vacation. As the fifth member of the board, her vote could break a two to two tie among the other board members deciding the salaries of Ida County elected officials. Two board members decided those officials should receive raises, and the other two would like the salaries to remain the same. Thirty years ago The Holstein City Council was informed at its regular meeting Monday that Phase I of the water project, the well field,

is near completion. Phase II of the water project is 98 percent completed. The water tower is scheduled for construction beginning Dec. 15 and should be completed by Feb. 17. The Ida County Compensation Board will meet this Thursday at the courthouse to review salaries of the county’s elected officials and make a recommendation for next year’s salaries. Each December, the compensation board is responsible for setting salaries for the three county supervisors, the auditor, treasurer, sheriff, recorder and county recorder. Due to a recent legislative ruling, the county clerk of court’s salary is now set by the state. Twenty years ago The Ida County Board of Supervisors approved an advertisement for the county engineer position presented by Gary Johnson, Ida County assistant engineer. The ad will be placed in the Des Moines Register and the Omaha World Herald for one week. Ida County Public Health Administrator Jan Rupert appeared before the supervisors to discuss concerns regarding her budget as she is currently short-staffed. After six years as the

administrator of Holstein Good Samaritan Center, Chris Schable will be moving to Hubbard to begin duties at its Good Samaritan Center. Chad Solvie, a native of Hancock, Minn., will officially begin his duties as the new administrator Dec. 12. Ten years ago The Ida County Compensation Board approved 4 percent across-the-board raises for Ida County’s elected officials Monday during its annual meeting at the courthouse. The compensation board’s recommendation now goes to the board of supervisors who, according to Iowa Code, have the authority to approve them or equally decrease them, but cannot increase the recommendations. The Ida County Public Safety and Communications Commission heard updates on arrests and bookings during its Nov. 21 meeting in Battle Creek. Ida County Sheriff Wade Harriman gave updated county booking and arrest numbers. Harriman said increasing workload is cutting into patrol hours, so cities may need to consider the cost of hiring additional staff at the sheriff ’s department.

Don’t wait to purchase shotgun deer season licenses Hunters planning to participate in Iowa’s shotgun deer season are encouraged to purchase their licenses ahead of time to avoid long lines at the retailer. The DNR expects around 70,000 hunters to participate in the irst shotgun season and as of Nov. 22, 26 percent of the licenses have been sold. Iowa’s irst shotgun deer season begins Dec. 3. Register your harvest Successful hunters are reminded to report their deer harvest by midnight the day after the deer is recovered. Accurately reporting the harvest is an important part of Iowa’s deer management program and plays a vital role in managing deer populations and future hunting opportunities. Law requires reporting the harvest. Hunters will be checked for compliance. For hunters with Internet access, the online harvest reporting is the easiest way to register the deer. Hunters can report their deer online at www.iowadnr.gov, by calling the toll free reporting number 1-800-771-4692, or at any license vendor. The hunter whose name is on the tag should report the deer.

Battle Badgers discuss December activities The Battle Badgers 4-H Club met Nov. 6, at 3 p.m. at the Catholic Church in Ida Grove. Kinzey Dutler called the meeting to order with 17 members present answering to the roll call: “favorite winter activity.” Emerson Else led the pledge of allegiance. The treasurer and secretary reports were given and approved. We discussed old business of membership dues.

New business included the date we want to do our Pizza Ranch fund-raiser. As a group, we decided March 20, a noschool day, would work the best for everyone. Every year, for the Mid-Sioux families, we have to decide on an amount to spend per family. It was properly moved and seconded to spend $100 per each single parent family.

Our next meeting will be held on Dec. 4 at 2 p.m. at Community Bank. Each family is responsible for 12 goodie bags. At our December meeting, we will wrap and prepare the boxes for the surrounding businesses. Then, following our meeting, we will go to Storm Lake to go shopping for Mid-Sioux families. The 4-H pledge was led by Madeline Else.

Iowa KidsNet celebrates National Adoption Month Iowa KidsNet is proud to unite with families and advocates across the country to celebrate November’s National Adoption Month. This is a time to recognize that more than 100,000 children in the U.S., including 345 in Iowa, are currently waiting in foster care for their forever family. For many children in foster care, it could take three years to finally be adopted. Iowa KidsNet is a statewide contact for Iowa families seeking to foster or adopt children from foster care. There is an ongoing need in Iowa for families to open up their homes, especially for sibling groups, teenag-

ers and children older than eight years old. Each year, more than 23,000 children age out of the foster care system. Last year in Iowa, 39 children aged out with no family or permanent home. “We need more of our Iowa families to help us provide permanent homes for our children in foster care,” said Kai McGee, recruitment and retention manager with Iowa KidsNet. “Every child is worth it, and every child deserves a safe, loving home. There are currently far too many children in the U.S. who live each day without that support.” But, National Adoption Month is also a time to recognize the

families who are making a difference for these children. “Foster and adoptive parents play a crucial role in the lives of these children,” McGee said. “A child needs a parent to turn to when they have a bad day at school, or when they need advice for applying for their very first job. These are things we can often take for granted in our own lives, which is why it’s up to us to help our Iowa children in need.” To learn more about becoming an Iowa foster parent or adopting from foster care in Iowa, attend a local information session. Learn more and see upcoming dates at www.IowaKidsNet.com.

Hunter compliance slipping on reported deer harvest requirement Hunters play a large role in managing Iowa’s world class deer herd by working with landowners and neighbors to reduce doe numbers, providing tissue samples to monitor for chronic wasting disease and by reporting successful hunts to the harvest reporting system.

portant piece of information used when wildlife experts discuss possible changes to seasons, antlerless quotas, or other potential regulation changes. But each year, more and more hunters are skipping this step. Presently, one out of five successful hunters is not reporting their harvest. “Our officers are conducting spot checks and have been writing more failure to report tickets,” said Chris Ensminger, wildlife research supervisor for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. “Harvest numbers are an important piece of information used in our models for deer populations around the state. If harvest is high-

er than is what has been reported, the proposed management strategies won’t accurately reflect what is on the ground. It’s the local hunters who get short changed in the end.” Reporting the harvest only takes a few minutes. Hunters must report their harvest to the DNR by midnight of the day after it is killed, or before taking it to a locker or taxidermist, or before processing it for consumption, or before transporting it out-of-state, whichever occurs first. The hunter whose name is on the transportation tag is responsible for making the report. If no animal is harvested, no report is necessary.

Program donates deer meat to Food Bank of Iowa

Have an extra deer at the end of the hunt? Maybe you bought an extra tag, to hunt longer? Consider donating to Iowa’s HUSH program. HUSH (Help Us Stop Hunger) works with 81 participating lockers to provide high quality meat to needy Iowans, through the Food Bank of Iowa. Field dressed deer are skinned,

de-boned and ground into twopound packages…then distributed to local needy families. Hunters, who pay a dollar surcharge with each deer tag purchase, fund the program. HUSH has provided meat from 66,300 deer to those who need it—nearly 3,400 last year. Processors receive $75 for their end of

the work. The Food Bank of Iowa picks up $5, as it oversees distribution. Each locker will accept whole deer, asking the hunter to fill out a Hunter HUSH card. There is no fee paid at the locker. A list of participating lockers is available in the Iowa Hunting Regulations and online at www.iowahush.com.
