DONATE LIFE: The Facts Despite continuing efforts at public education, misconceptions and inaccuracies about organ donation persist. So here are some facts to help you better understand organ, eye and tissue donation:
WHY YOUR HELP IS NEEDED
• Anyone can be a potential donor regardless of age, race, or medical history.
• Every 10 minutes, someone is added to the national transplant waiting list.
• All major religions in the United States support organ, eye and tissue donation and see it as the final act of love and generosity toward others.
• On average, 22 people die each day while waiting for a transplant.
• If you are sick or injured and admitted to the hospital, the number one priority is to save your life. Organ, eye and tissue donation can only be considered after you are deceased. • When you are on the waiting list for an organ, what really counts is the severity of your illness, time spent waiting, blood type, and other important medical information, not your financial status or celebrity status. • An open casket funeral is possible for organ, eye and tissue donors. Through the entire donation process the body is treated with care, respect and dignity.
Currently, nearly 122,000 men, women and children are awaiting organ transplants in the United States.
• One organ donor can save 8 lives. • Currently, there are 121,194 people in need of a lifesaving organ transplant. • 29,532 Organ Transplants Performed in 2014. • More than 1 million tissue transplants are done each year and the surgical need for tissue has been steadily rising. For more information on how to Donate Life, visit: http://donatelife.net/
• There is no cost to the donor or their family for organ or tissue donation. • Information about an organ donor is only released to the recipient if the family of the donor requests or agrees to it.

WHAT IS
Occupational
Therapy?
Occupational therapy practitioners ask, "What matters to you?" not, "What's the matter with you?"
• An outcome evaluation to ensure that the goals are being met and/or make changes to the intervention plan.
In its simplest terms, occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants help people across the lifespan participate in the things they want and need to do through the therapeutic use of everyday activities (occupations).
Occupational therapy services may include comprehensive evaluations of the client’s home and other environments (e.g., workplace, school), recommendations for adaptive equipment and training in its use, and guidance and education for family members and caregivers. Occupational therapy practitioners have a holistic perspective, in which the focus is on adapting the environment to fit the person, and the person is an integral part of the therapy team.
Common occupational therapy interventions include helping children with disabilities to participate fully in school and social situations, helping people recovering from injury to regain skills, and providing supports for older adults experiencing physical and cognitive changes. Occupational therapy services typically include: • Individualized evaluation, during which the client/family and occupational therapist determine the person’s goals. • Customized intervention to improve the person’s ability to perform daily activities and reach the goals.

WARM UP It's not a good idea to just bolt on to the field and start playing. You shouldn't even start stretching until you're a little warmed up. So take a light jog to get loosened up and ready to play.
KNOW THE RULES OF THE GAME Traffic lights at intersections help prevent crashes between the many cars and trucks that drive on the roads together. This works because drivers know the rules and follow them — at least most of the time. It's the same way with sports.
5
When players know the rules of the game — what's legal and what's not — fewer injuries happen. You and the other players know what to expect from each other. For instance, you know that in soccer you can't come from behind, crash into a player's legs, and steal the ball. It's legal — and safer — to go after the ball rather than the player.
WAYS TO AVOID SPORTS INJURIES
Playing sports is a lot of fun. Getting hurt is not. Take these five steps to prevent injuries so you can stay in the game:
WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR Protective gear is anything you wear that helps keep you from getting hurt. The gear you wear depends on the sport you play. Helmets are the most common protective gear. They protect your all-important head while you're playing football, hockey, baseball, softball, biking, skateboarding, and inline skating, just to name a few! Make sure you're wearing the right helmet for your sport. For instance, don't wear your baseball batting helmet when you're playing football! Your helmet should fit snugly but comfortably, and if it has a strap — like a bike helmet does — you need to fasten it. Otherwise, it will fall off when you need it most. Other sports require eye protection, mouth guards, pads, wrist, elbow, and knee guards, and a protective cup (for boys only). And don't forget your feet. Cleats are worn in football, baseball, softball, and soccer. These shoes have special rubber or plastic points on the soles to help your feet grip the ground when you run around. Talk with your parents or your coach to know what gear you need. Then wear that gear whenever you're practicing or playing.
5
With sports that use plays, it helps to understand the plays and what your role is in each one. Being where you're supposed to be can help you stay out of harm's way, too.
WATCH OUT FOR OTHERS Some rules don't have anything to do with scoring points or penalties. Some rules are just about protecting other people and being courteous. For instance, in baseball or softball, the batter can't fling the bat after hitting the ball and heading for first base. He or she must drop it so that it doesn't hit anyone. Likewise, a diver would make sure that the pool was clear before diving in. Otherwise, he or she might land on someone else. One way you can watch out for others is to communicate on the field. For instance, a baseball player in the outfield might yell "I got it" to avoid a collision with another outfielder. Listening to your coach during a game also can help keep you safe. It's also good to just be courteous, like telling someone his or her shoe is untied. Check your shoes, too!
DON'T PLAY WHEN YOU'RE INJURED This is a really important one. If you love sports, it's tempting to get right back in the game, even after an injury. But playing when you're hurt — or before an injury has had a chance to fully heal — is a bad idea. It can lead to an even worse injury, one that might sideline you for a long time. Be honest with parents and coaches if you've been hurt. See a doctor for your injuries, when necessary, and follow his or her advice about how and when to return to practice and play.

Early Signs of
AUTISM
All Parents Should Know
For the best outcomes in treating Autism Spectrum Disorder, early diagnosis and intervention are absolutely critical for improving a child’s odds of developing important cognitive skills and functioning at a high level later in life. Autism, which almost always begins to appear when the child is between 12 and 18 months old, can present itself in many different ways, making it difficult for parents to identify. In fact, roughly half of parents are unfamiliar with the early signs of autism. The neurodevelopmental disorder — which is becoming an increasingly common diagnosis among American children — is characterized by differences in social behaviors, communication and perception. Typical red flags range from delays in speaking to unusual sensory behaviors.
5 EARLY SIGNS
Beyond the common warning signs listed above, here are five early indications of autism that experts say parents should be aware of:
1.Doesn’t respond to his or her own name.
A healthy baby will respond, usually by turning, when their own name is called by a caregiver. Only 20 percent of babies who are later diagnosed with autism respond when their name is called.
2. Doesn’t engage “joint attention.”
Joint attention is an early indication of language skills, because it suggests the ability to share something with another person. An example would be a child seeing an airplane in the sky, looking at the airplane, looking at his mother and then looking back at the plane as if to say, Do you see what I see?
3. Doesn’t imitate others’ behavior.
Babies with autism are less likely to mirror another’s movements — smiling, waving or clapping, for instance — than typical babies.
4. Doesn’t engage in pretend play.
A child’s love of playing pretend (for instance, playing “mother” to a baby doll or pretending a banana is a telephone) typically emerges around 2 or 3 years old. Children with autism, however, are less likely to engage with objects in this way.
5. Doesn’t respond emotionally.
While typical babies are very sensitive to the emotions of others, babies with autism are less likely to smile in response to the smile of another, or to cry when they see another child crying. Source: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/early-signs-autism_ us_5665e849e4b072e9d1c70838

April is...
National
Cancer Control Month
With various cancer awareness months spread throughout the calendar year, the catchallsounding National Cancer Control Month might seem a little redundant. But even as annual cancer deaths continue to drop, it bears reminding that more needs to be done to keep cancer at bay. That sentiment was stressed by President Barack Obama in an official proclamation marking April as National Cancer Control Month. In the proclamation, he wrote: “Together, our Nation is moving forward in the fight against cancer. As we recommit to improving prevention, detection and treatment, let us honor the memory of the courageous men and women we have lost to the disease, and let us stand with all those facing it today... I encourage citizens, government agencies, private businesses, nonprofit organizations and other interested groups to join in activities that will increase awareness of what Americans can do to prevent cancer.”
7
A growing body of research has highlighted an array of lifestyle decisions that Americans can make to reduce their risk of cancer, such as quitting tobacco, eating healthier, exercising regularly, using sun protection and undergoing recommended screenings. With continued education, research and advances, National Cancer Control Month won’t be a time simply for reminding and rededicating, but for celebrating. The president himself described the desired strides and milestones this way: “patients lifted up by the promise of remission, parents blessed with the chance to watch their children grow up [and] young people confident that a diagnosis cannot put a limit to their dreams.” For more information, please contact: Horizon Oncology - 765.446.5111 Wael Harb, M.D. Ajita Narayan, M.D. Lafayette Cancer Care - 765.446.5050 Nancy A.

Choosing A Primary Care Physician - The Smart Way Choosing a new physician can be a difficult task. Asking for recommendations is a good way to start, but ultimately you will have to decide which physician is best suited to your individual needs and situation. It is important to establish a relationship with a primary care physician (PCP), especially before you ever get sick. Primary care doctors should be the first line of defense in protecting your health, but millions of Americans don’t have a PCP. Even patients who regularly visit specialists don’t always have a PCP, leaving them unprepared when the flu or an infection strikes. Everyone gets sick at some point, so selecting a PCP ahead of time means you don’t have to scramble around when you need medical care. Here are some questions and answers that can help you select a PCP who understands your particular needs. What information should I find out about the doctor? It may help to ask the doctor’s office these questions: • At which hospitals does the doctor have privileges? • How long does it take to get in to see the doctor for a routine visit and for urgently needed care? • Who covers for the doctor when the need arises? • Is the doctor board certified? (This means he or she has had training after medical school and has passed an exam to be certified as a specialist in a certain field.) What personal qualities should I look for in a doctor? Find a doctor who listens carefully, explains things clearly, anticipates your health problems and allows you to ask questions. What information should I bring to my appointment? It is important to provide your doctor with the following: • Your health history. • A list of medications you’re taking. • Any vitamins or supplements you take. • A description of any current health problems you’re having. If you have symptoms, the doctor will want to know when they first appeared and how often. • A list of questions. Ask your doctor to explain any answers you don’t understand.
