HOMETOWN HEALTH CARE HEROES: SALUTING LOCAL HEALTH CARE WORKERS ON THE FRONTLINES FIGHTING COVID-19
We are grateful to our hometown heroes in a way that perhaps we never have been in our lifetime because we know the blood, sweat and tears that these men and women have shed in light of the COVID-19 pandemic that has swept through our country, leaving confusion, uncertainly and blind fear in its wake. As schools, churches, restaurants, hair salons, gyms, movie theaters, shopping malls and other businesses shut down, those on the frontlines never stopped working. In fact, many put in overtime, both physically and mentally, to ensure the safety of their fellow man.

CARDS OF COMFORT PLAINFIELD KIWANIS CLUB DELIVERS CARDS OF HOPE TO SENIOR LIVING FACILITIES Writer / Christy Heitger-Ewing
the chance of the virus spreading.
We’ve had a rough spring, there’s no doubt about it. As a result, some community members have put their heads together to come up with creative ways to boost the morale of our fellow neighbors. Lori Lee, president of the Plainfield Kiwanis Club, wanted to spread joy, particularly for the elderly residing in senior and assisted living communities, many of which were forced to go on lockdown to help lessen
“I invited my grandchildren to help me make cards to deliver to area assisted living facilities,” says Lee, who also asked her Kiwanis treasurer, Jenifer Laver, to see if her kids wanted to help, too. “I said, ‘We can do this as a service project because Kiwanis is about kids,’” Lee says.

But she needed more hands so she called Corie Wise, Captain at the Plainfield Fire Territory. He was on board, and within a few days, his crew of firefighters had made 110 cards. The project snowballed as Lee reached out to other members of the Plainfield Kiwanis Club, including Mark Todisco, the Town of Plainfield Clerk, who enlisted his grandkids to help with the project. In total,
in four days’ time, they made 320 cards for staff and patients at Cumberland Trace Senior Living Facility in Plainfield. They had all kinds of cards — some regular greeting cards, others homemade from construction paper or a repurposed Christmas card. Some included drawings, others were covered in stickers. Some contained bible verses, others poetry. All
shared a handwritten message of hope. For instance, “You are loved,” “You’ve got this,” “This will pass,” and “We are praying for you.” One card made by an elementary student read, “Stay safe and remember to love. Make sure you hold on to true friends and family during this tragedy. And listen to me, you are loved. You are going to be okay, and you

have to stay peaceful.” Lee says being a part of something so positive was good medicine for his firefighters, who had endured a tough week. “This made their day to be able to do something that brought joy to others,” Lee sats. “The firefighters were all smiles.”
So, too, were the Cumberland Trace employees like Hardeep Kaur and Varina Griffin, who gratefully accepted not only the cards but also a donation from Jack’s Donuts of 150 bags of doughnut holes.
The Plainfield Kiwanis Club plans to continue making cards and deliver them weekly to other long-term senior living facilities in the area such as Sugar Grove Assisted Living Facility.
“Buffy Lutzke with Jack’s Donuts is one of our members and she wanted to do something, too,” Lee says.
“We had a lot of kiddos and grandkids involved in this,” Lee adds. “I look forward to expanding this service project in the coming weeks.”

Remember the days when the notion of shaking hands with a rock-n-roll star or rubbing elbows with an NBA player made your heart aflutter? Remember the way your children watched superhero movies with their eyes wide and their mouths agape as they sat, mesmerized, at the notion of being able to fly, deflect bullets and neutralize the bad guys? Remember the times you had a random encounter with an A-list Hollywood actress at an airport or a legendary musician while vacationing in an exotic location? We remember such encounters because we, as a society, have elevated Hollywood superstars, sports icons, music legends and fictitious comic book characters as heroes in our minds. It wasn’t until this spring when an insidious, highly contagious disease swiftly and jarringly upended our routines, our lives, our families and our world that our definition of “hero” was sharply redefined. Suddenly we looked to doctors, nurses, hospital staff, first responders and emergency personnel with fresh eyes of gratitude and a renewed sense of awe as we recognized the grand
and personal sacrifices they were making, daily, for the sake of their communities. We are grateful to our hometown heroes in a way that perhaps we never have been in our lifetime because we know the blood, sweat and tears that these men and women have shed in light of the COVID-19 pandemic that has swept through our country, leaving confusion, uncertainly, and blind fear in its wake.

many put in overtime, both physically and mentally, to ensure the safety of their fellow man. This strange and surreal experience has brought many lessons, the greatest of which is that we have heroes living among us. And for that, we are all eternally grateful. Therefore, we wanted to take this opportunity to thank these beautiful people for their ceaseless sacrifice, unwavering commitment to serve and boundless love of humankind. Teamwork has taken on a new meaning as
“Keep looking for the silver lining. Our community is stronger together.� - Karen Crevier, MD
MAY 2020
these men and women have cared for humanity in an unprecedented manner. “Every team member has stepped up in some capacity to meet this challenge head-on — from the physicians, nurses, techs, unit secretaries, and scribes to the environmental services workers who are really putting in extra effort,” says Karen Crevier, MD, medical director of the emergency department at IU Health West Hospital. “Our ICU and hospital colleagues have shown up in full force supporting the Emergency Department team and the patients in need. The solidarity is so inspiring.” During this unique time in history, the public’s view of health care workers has shifted as society has become more aware of the specialty of emergency medicine. “They now better understand that we are experts at resuscitation of the critically ill or injured patient,” Crevier says. “I have encountered more appreciation from patients for us being there for them in their time of need in the past few weeks. This aspect of our job really defines the Emergency Physician. It’s why we chose this specialty.” There is no question that 2020 will be well remembered by all but particularly by those in the health care field, who witnessed, firsthand, what a pandemic looks like and how it can change protocol in an instant. Crevier says she’ll never forget the eye-opening moment when their ICU capacity kept jumping. “We went from an 8-bed capacity to 16 beds to talking about potentially doubling — and then some — our ICU beds and what we needed to do after that,” Crevier says. “Planning to increase the emergency department’s capacity with additional care spaces to evaluate patients with COVID-19 is a vivid memory as well.”
MAY 2020
Though uncertain times has the potential to breed fear, it also births courage, as evidenced by retired health care workers who have voluntarily chosen to return to the field to help in the crisis. “During the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have been amazed at how the health care team and local communities unite,” says Kapri Ames MSN, RN, NE-BC, Associate Chief Nursing Officer, IU Health West Hospital. “It’s encouraging and helpful to see folks who used to work in hospitals sign up to come back and help on the front lines. Additionally, the sweet support of the community has been heartwarming and truly does make a difference. We thank you.” Crevier agrees. She is thankful for the random texts from friends, family and colleagues as well as uplifting messages written on various platforms that have served to heighten morale. “The Emergency Medicine community is very close knit so we’re constantly receiving messages from across the country about how my colleagues have met the same challenges and the creative ways they’ve overcome them,” says Crevier, who was touched by the sign someone placed in front of IU Health West that says, “Heroes Work Here.” For those who are considering entering the field of health care, Crevier maintains that one of the most important qualities to possess is flexibility. “You’re going to have to be flexible,” she says. “Make sure you’re okay with that up front because you’ll be stretching yourself at all levels and may be asked to do things that aren’t comfortable. If you’re going into it for the right reasons and because there’s a need that you can and want to fill, you will be fine. Remember that everybody you interact with has their own challenges they are facing.” MAY 2020
As the staff at area hospitals work diligently to heal the sick, they greatly appreciate everything the community has done not only to lift their spirits but to help flatten the curve. “Thank you to all the community for doing your part, completely altering your way of life and stepping up to the challenge of staying home,” Crevier says. “We know it’s not easy — kids at home, trying to work and live without going out and being apart from the ones we love. We appreciate it more than we can say.” It’s all done for the greater good. “Keep looking for the silver lining,” she says. “Our community is stronger together.” When every day brings a new series of harrowing headlines, it can be easy to slip into sadness or flounder in fear. But I assure you, there is a light at the end of the tunnel thanks to this army of men and women as they are the heartbeat of hope that now, always has and always will work tirelessly to relieve pain, save lives and restore health. These individuals dedicate their lives to helping us, as a society, live our best lives. Because as the saying goes, “When you have your health, you have everything. When you do not have your health, nothing else matters.”

transportation program and in-home services continued without interruption. New cleaning and scheduling protocols were put into place to keep people safe, but the services did not waiver. These essential services ensured that people received medical care, such as dialysis, and had a ride to get to work. Vulnerable, homebound seniors continued to receive the support that they need to stay independent.
HCSS is a 501(c)(3). Tax-deductible donations can be made by credit card at their website at hcseniors.org or can be mailed to 1201 Sycamore Lane P.O.Box 448 Danville, Indiana 46112. You can call 317-745-4303 to make a food pantry appointment and for services and resources. Without a daily lunch program, the staff looked for new ways to provide nutritional meals and food to its regular guests and community members who would call for assistance. “Our staff and volunteers pride themselves in the relationships that they form with seniors. We had to find a way to stay safe while meeting these very personal needs,” says Executive Director Marina Keers. “This pandemic has proven that adaptation and flexibility are required to successfully serve others when social distancing is the new normal." Prior to the COVID 19 outbreak, HCSS operated its senior-friendly food pantry, for ages 60-plus, much like many others. When a senior came to the pantry, they spent time with volunteer Anne Burney to select the food and hygiene items that meet their needs. That time is also used to get to know the senior and assess if there are other needs they may have or community resources that might be of benefit to them. The pantry would need to change in order to continue meeting the growing needs. HCSS has always delivered food pantry items to seniors who were homebound and it was ready to expand this service to meet community needs. Volunteers had been deployed to deliver frozen meals from CICOA Aging & In Home Solutions to participants in its lunch program. Within days, the

food pantry was transformed into a drivethrough pantry. “We realized we needed to provide a substantial increase in the amount of food we were giving out to help our seniors avoid the grocery stores and visiting other pantries,” Keers says.
HCSS also saw a significant increase in the number of seniors being served. The pantry items were delivered directly into a senior’s vehicle to avoid contact between the volunteer and the senior. Many seniors shed tears as they expressed their appreciation for the food and personal care items. MAY 2020
The demand for assistance with food has grown. HCSS, like many pantries, has continued to request donations of food and financial support in order to meet the demand. Food, transportation and assistance in the home are critical services to help seniors remain safe and independent, in the home of their choice.

Helping Loved Ones Seek Treatment for Alcohol Addiction
positive and supportive statements. Instead of saying you know what’s best, speak from a place of concern and let them know that you’re having the conversation is because you love and care for them.
When someone you love has an alcohol addiction, it can be difficult to know what to say or do to help. Trisha Palencer, director of Chronic Pain and Chemical Dependency at the Addiction Treatment and Recovery Center at IU Health West Hospital shares some things to consider: • Learn about alcoholism before approaching your loved one. Alcoholism is more than having one too many cocktails from time to time - it’s a disorder. Take the time to learn about it from credible websites and resources. • Prepare what you’re going to say. Before the conversation, prepare yourself for possible responses and practice using
• Start a conversation. Confronting a loved one about addiction is never easy, but a conversation could be the turning point in their life to seek treatment. It’s important for your loved one to not feel attacked during the conversation. Avoid bringing up their addiction out of the blue and in an environment where they are not comfortable. Pick a private, quiet space with little to no interruptions. • Intervene. It can be difficult for an individual who is battling addiction to find treatment on their own. Once you’ve voiced your concerns, explain how you can get your loved one into treatment and the treatment options available. Let them know that you are there to support them every step of the way. It’s normal to fear making an addiction worse when deciding to talk with your loved one. While you may feel like you’re overstepping, in the long run, you might be saving their life.

3. “ DE-TICK” AFTER COMING BACK INDOORS There are three crucial steps for any “deticking” protocol. First, as soon as you come inside, disrobe and tumble dry your clothes on high heat (without washing them) – 10 minutes (gas) or 15 minutes (electric). Studies have shown that dry heat kills ticks. Damp or wet clothing should be tumble dried on high heat for at least 60-90 minutes.
Summer and warm weather are on the horizon, and with the warmer temperatures comes the rise of tick presence. From early spring through October, both humans and pets are at an increased risk for bites from ticks carrying pathogens like Lyme disease – regardless of whether they live in an urban or rural area. Here are the phases for a comprehensive plan that you can implement implement as soon as summer arrives. 1. AVOID TICK HABITATS & CREATE TICK-SAFE ENVIRONMENTS Shady areas, moderate to tall grass and vegetation, leaf litter and woodpiles are all places where ticks can thrive. Stay in the middle of the hiking path whenever possible and avoid grass that is taller than your lawn. At home, try to create as many tick-free zones on your property as possible by: • Removing leaf litter. • Stacking woodpiles and position bird baths and feeders away from the recreational areas in your yard. • Landscaping with bushes and plants that do not attract deer. • Keeping playsets and other recreational areas away from tall grass, bushes and damp, shady areas. • Installing permethrin-treated tick tubes in flower beds, woodpiles or other places where mice tend to live on your property. The chemical is harmless to mice and will
coat their fur – turning them into tiny tick killers. • Having your property perimeter, pathways and shady flowerbeds treated with insecticide sprays or granules. • Creating tick barriers between your lawn and wooded or unmown areas of your property using gravel or woodchips. Do not get discouraged by this daunting list. Doing any one or two of the items is better than doing nothing at all. 2. APPLY PROTECTION BEFORE GOING OUTDOORS Combining permethrin-treated clothing (or specially-designed, chemical-free Rynoskin clothing) with skin repellent will provide a personal layer of defense against ticks. Permethrin is safe for humans and can be applied to both the inside and outside of clothing items (and camping gear) to effectively repel and kill ticks. You can treat your own clothing at home, mail it in to a treatment company or buy pre-treated clothing. Apply skin repellent to the areas on your body that are not covered by treated clothing. There are several skin repellents on the market, with varying effective timeframes and active ingredients. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s usage directions and avoid products that combine repellent with sunscreen. MAY 2020
Muddy clothes should be washed in hot water (130°or higher). If you must wash the clothes in cold or warm water, be careful handling them between the washer and dryer, because ticks could survive those wash cycles. Then you can tumble dry them for 60 minutes (high heat) to 90 minutes (low heat) or until completely dry. The second “de-ticking” step is a full-body tick check. Do a thorough tick check, starting with your feet (especially between your toes) and moving upward (the typical travel pattern for most ticks). Carefully check your feet and ankles, behind the knees, inner thighs, pelvic area, waist, bellybutton (especially inside), back, underarms, in and around ears and your scalp (especially around the hairline). Finally, shower as soon as possible after coming back inside. Showering will help you shed any ticks still unattached, make your skin smoother so that hard ticks are easier to feel and wash off any remaining skin repellent. Creating a comprehensive prevention plan will help you enjoy the great outdoors with your family in the months when ticks are most active. For more information about all of the above prevention phases – as well as proper tick removal procedures, post-tick bite symptoms to watch for and a wealth of information and research regarding ticks and Lyme disease – go to indianalymeconnect.org. Be safe and have fun this spring, summer and fall!

CLEAR SKIES METEOROLOGIST KEVIN GREGORY TALKS 30+ YEAR CAREER & EVER-CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF WEATHER TECHNOLOGY
PlainfieldMag.com / MAY 2020 / PLAINFIELD MAGAZINE / 25
RTV6 Meteorologist, Kevin Gregory, followed in his father's footsteps. Bob Gregory was a meteorologist for Channel 13 in the early 70s.
Writer / Christy Heitger-Ewing Photographer / Steve Brenneman
For meteorologist Bob Gregory, every Friday night was “take your child to work day” as he brought his 7-year-old son Kevin with him to Channel 13 to watch him deliver his weather reports. Kevin sat, mesmerized, as his dad referenced the national, state and Midwestern maps using “meteorology weather critters” to mark areas of sunshine, precipitation and clouds.
“They forget that back then forecasts weren’t as specific,” Kevin says. “They simply said, ‘Precipitation today,’ whereas “I point to things that don’t exist. I talk to a now we say, ‘Chance of rain, mainly camera with no one behind it. I carry on a conversation with people at home I can’t see,” between 8 and 11 a.m.’” Kevin says. “It’s definitely a different world.” The fact that technology is always changing is precisely what makes Gregory’s job And an ever-changing world at that. Now interesting. For example, the station now there are 27 monitors covering the back uses GeoBeats, an online creative network wall of the studio. Kevin uses nine of them that leverages its global network of local for weather maps. Though he was attracted to meteorology early on, he was terrified of photographers and videographers to highlight local stories. storms as a child. blank green wall.
“Since I didn’t have school the next day, I got to stay up for the late news,” Kevin says. “In elementary school, I’d ask the teacher to “Of course, that doesn’t mean I stayed awake lower the blinds when the skies darkened,” for the ride home.” Gregory recalls. In the early 70s, it was a different generation of broadcasting. “Weather maps were real,” Kevin says. “I’d watch film be developed, edited, cut and the extra film would fall to the floor.” Today, however, the staff uses chroma key, a
He now knows that most storms never produce severe weather. Of those that do, damaging winds and large hail are the main threats. Only one percent of storms ever produce a tornado. Though he’s well informed, viewers occasionally insist that forecasts were more accurate when his dad was on air. 26 / PLAINFIELD MAGAZINE / MAY 2020 / PlainfieldMag.com
“It’s like a geography beat or a geo-spatial kind of idea,” Kevin says. “Hendricks County is my GeoBeat, so once a week I’ll share a local story on RTV6 or TheIndyChannel.com.” Viewers not only like being tuned in at the local level, but they also enjoy being able to interact with their local meteorologist. “You’d be amazed at how many people call in to report what they’re seeing,”
Kevin says. “They’ll say, ‘I’m in Putnam County, and we just had 50 mph winds and hail roll through here.’” Though computer models seem to rule the day, the human element of the weather equation is still a critical component to safe forecasting. “My job is the Bermuda triangle of meteorological knowledge. I say that because I get lost in there often,” Kevin says. “Some days I can’t figure out what’s going on with the weather. Other days the computer isn’t working. And then there are times when my mind and mouth aren’t connected, and I get tongue-tied.” The most difficult days are when severe weather looms and Kevin must spend hours on-air, describing a weather event as it unfolds. “I have to multi-task—reporting to the viewer and at the same time manipulating the radar and reading information from storm spotters,” he says. “That’s the challenge being a one-man band, running the computers while warning out ahead of the storms, yet still keeping track of the storm reports that come in.” Gregory has found a great way to connect with viewers — by incorporating his Yorkie Rory (short for Aurora, named after the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights). “If I post a straight weather graphic, it generates moderate interest, but if I post a picture of Rory, soaking wet from a downpour, people love that,” he says. As a result, Rory has developed quite the following on Gregory’s Facebook page. “I’ll put her in a sweater and caption it, ‘Rory Gregory knows that you need to layer up for the weekend,’” Kevin says. “If I simply posted, ‘Highs today will be 56 with winds out of the Southwest,’ people don’t respond the way they do if I include a picture of Rory pointing her nose into the wind as it lifts her 8-pound body off the ground. Because that creates a weather

experience rather than a straight-up weather report.” A typical day starts with Kevin getting to the station by 1 p.m. and updating TheIndyChannel.com. Then he has six radio forecasts — four for WIBC and two for stations in Seymour, Columbus and Southeast Indiana. Next, he starts preparing graphics for the 5, 6, 7 and 11 p.m. broadcasts. Because Kevin spends a good portion of his day in front of a green screen, he enjoys when he’s able to report live like he did the year Indianapolis hosted the Super Bowl. In addition, he also broadcasts live at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway each year prior to the Indy 500 race for Breakfast at the Brickyard. “Those are always fun events because I get to mix with people,” Kevin says. “I don’t get that immediate feedback when I’m at the studio.”

Well, unless he interrupts “The Bachelor.” Then he hears about it. When Kevin does get a chance to mingle with his viewers, the No. 1 comment he gets is, “I didn’t know you were so tall!” (He stands 6' 5".) “Yes, I’m taller than you think, and I’ve got grey hair just like a cumulus cloud,” says Kevin, a graduate of Ben Davis High School who moved to Brownsburg in 1992 and then to Avon in 1997. He and his wife Susan own 31 acres.
“I’m constantly clearing brush, cutting down tree limbs, and mowing the lawn,” says Kevin, who appreciates the deer, coyote, skunk, fox, hawks, heron and one lone turkey that pass through the property. “People always say that turkeys don’t live by themselves, but this guy does!” Kevin says. When he’s not in his yard battling leaves, blowing grass, or collecting fallen tree limbs, Kevin is often walking Rory at one of many Hendricks County area parks.
Down the road when Kevin retires, he doesn’t plan to reminisce about the crazy storms from days of yore. Instead, he’s going to remember the people — like Tom Carnegie and the late Howard Caldwell, both legendary television broadcasters and journalists. “That’s been the true joy for me — all the people I’ve worked with for 30 years at RTV6,” he says. “I’m doing what I love to do.”
