The American Society has recently developed standards for sun protective clothing, which measure the ability of fabric to block UV rays from passing through to the skin. Clothing with a UPF of 15 to 24 offers good UV protection, clothing with a UPF of 25 to 39 offers very good UV protection, and clothing with a UPF of 40 to 50 offers excellent UV protection. Although most sunburns occur between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., when the sun is at its harshest, that doesn’t mean individuals should go unprotected outside of that time period. Sunburns may occur at any time, even on cloudy days. There are many other factors that can increase the risk of sunburn, including altitude and wind. Individuals should protect themselves from the sun’s rays whenever outdoors.

...healthy living an infection if left untreated. The infection can then potentially reach bone. By then a surgical intervention may be needed,” she said. While there are many foot clinics in the community, not many are staffed by someone like Chang who is a nurse practitioner trained in more than foot health. During the first visit Chang takes time to learn about each patient’s background history and overall health status, identify major risk factors, and then works with each patient to reduce risks and preserve foot function. “I understand that
patients can sometimes be overwhelmed by medical health advice. My goal is to meet each patient where they are at and gradually build on their knowledge base. Patients who have a high-risk foot are recommended to receive toenail care from an At-Risk Foot Specialist or a medical provider periodically. At these regular visits, I help patients identify deteriorating foot health and correct problems in its early stages. My job is to help patients keep their feet so they can continue to participate in life’s activities,” she said. Chang will coordi-
nate care with each patient’s primary care provider to refer patients to endocrinologists, vascular specialists, neurologists, and diabetic educators as needed. It’s all part of the comprehensive approach PacMed clinicians take in treating patients with diabetes. Pacific Medical Centers takes great pride in caring for their patients who have diabetes. The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) has recognized Pacific Medical Centers for consistently providing a high level of diabetes care for patients. To achieve this,

just one visit - - - and the IV sedation was great!” ~ Jeff, Bellevue
Our Experience and training allow us to complete major procedures in the comfort of our office:
D.D.S., M.S.D.
Do you feel nervous or stressed about your upcoming dental treatment? You are not alone; in fact, almost 30 percent of the population experiences anxiety and fear when faced with visiting the dentist. IV Sedation uses safe, effective methods to relax patients before and during their dental procedures. Once you are sedated, a local anesthetic is administered to numb the procedure area. IV Conscious Sedation is an altered state of consciousness, where you become disassociated with your surroundings. Memory, anxiety levels and perception of pain are greatly reduced, and you become very relaxed and comfortable. Most people who have IV

Moderate Conscious Sedation think that they have been asleep because they cannot remember anything that happened from the start of the sedation to the time they leave the office. Any reasonably healthy person can have IV Moderate Conscious Sedation dentistry with any procedure. Your dentist must be specifically licensed to perform sedation by the state of Washington. You can benefit from IV Conscious Sedation if you experience any of the following: Fear of dental care Complex dental problems Traumatic dental experiences Fear of needles and shots Trouble getting numb Sensitive teeth Thomas O.
