Health systems to expand Staff Reports

info@YourVoiceWeekly.com

TRADITION — Tradition Medical Center was such a success in its first year, it exceeded Martin Health System’s projections, which plans to expand the 90-bed hospital and are moving along quickly. During its first year after opening in December 2013, the acute care hospital reported it

was frequently at full capacity. It had 9,000 admissions, 29,000 emergency room visits and 1,470 births. Martin Health System said in a July 1 news release that a formal announcement of its expansion plans is expected by the end of July. With an eye toward such future expansion, Martin Health built Tradition Medical Center with a flexible design that could be easily expanded. This included installing the mechanical

systems on the third floor, rather than the roof, so additional floors could be added without disturbing the facility’s heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems. “Fortunately, our leadership and design team had the foresight to build flexibility into the hospital’s initial phase and develop a six-floor hospital that could be easily expanded to meet future demand,” said

ST. LUCIE WEST — When PGA Village resident Carol Anderson recently visited a compost plant in Sumter County similar to the one being proposed for St. Lucie County, she said, the smell overwhelmed her. “It stinks to high Heaven,” she said last week. “I got a headache that was so bad and it hasn’t gone away, it’s been two days.” If anything, Anderson said, the visit to the compost plant, owned by the same company, CompostUSA, that wants to build one two miles from her home, stiffened her opposition to the local plans. “We’re not going to have it,” she said. “It’s going to be an enormous fight.” Residents are concerned not only about odors, but potential ground water, water and air pollution, she said. Anderson’s reaction was not the type of response that Kris Creeden, partial owner of Com-

Meridian Marina & Yacht Club Bahamas bound Patrick McCallister STAFF WRITER

TREASURE COAST — Palm City’s Meridian Marina & Yacht Club is leading the flotilla to Port Lucayan, Bahamas. “Aug. 7 to 10 we’re having the Bahama’s Fun Run,” K.C. Traylor, communications director, said. Traylor said the flotilla gives captains the opportunity to traverse the about 70 miles from the Treasure Coast to the Bahamas with dozens of friends. “It’s allowing people that have boats to travel safely in a group,” she said. Once there, the group will stay at the Grand Lucayan Resort. “We’re coordinating the trip free of charge,” Traylor said. “People will have to pay for their room and boat slip.” The boats will depart about 8 a.m. It’s about a 2.5 hour trip. “All you have to do is give us your name and size of the boat,” Traylor said. “It’ll basically be hop on your boat and enjoy a weekend in the Bahamas. You do not have to be a member of our

Paul Spain makes second bid for Congress in Florida Patrick McCallister STAFF WRITER

pmccallister@YourVoiceWeekly.com

ST. LUCIE WEST — It’s about 1,000 miles from Jupiter to Washington D.C. Paul Spain hopes to make the trip in 19 months with the help of 2016 primary- and general-election voters. Spain is one of 10 announced candidates for the 18th Congressional District. Like most, if not all, of the other candidates, Spain ranks water quality as the most pressing issue facing the Treasure Coast. For him, it’s more than academic discussion. “I’m an avid boater,” Spain said. “I like the ocean and I like nature and I like the environment. I do a lot of kayaking.” He added, “I enjoy fishing. When I was a kid you had to watch where you fished. When I grew up all the chemical companies dumped into streams.” Spain is one of six Republicans who’ve announced runs for the district. Incumbent Patrick Mur-

phy is vacating the seat in a bid for the Senate seat Marco Rubio is leaving to run for president. Four Democrats have announced their aims to keep the seat blue. The congressional district covers St. Lucie and Martin counties, along with a sliver of Palm Beach County’s northern side. The district has a Cook Partisan Voting Index, PVI, of R+3. Florida’s rating is R+2. The R, of course, standing for Republican. Florida’s 22nd District, just south of the 18th District, has a D+3 rating. The D, again of course, meaning Democrat. Any Cook PVI score between R+5 and D+5 is counted as competitive. The “Rothenberg & Gonzales Political Report” puts the seat into its pure toss up category for 2016. It’s one of only 10 congressional districts to get that rating nationwide. On the Republican side, Martin County School Board member Rebecca Negron, St. Lucie County Commissioner Tod Mowery, and former State Representative Carl Domino have all announced

Paul Spain candidacies. The Florida Division of Elections lists only Domino and Negron on the Republican side, so far. Three others have announced candidacies on YouTube or Facebook. They are Brian Mast and Rick Kozell, along with Spain.

On the Democratic side, Stuart’s John “Juan” Xuna and two Palm Beach County commissioners are running. The commissioners are Melissa McKinlay and Priscilla Taylor. Xuna is the only Democratic candidate the state lists so far. Jonathan Chane, Palm Beach Gardens, is the latest to announce his candidacy. Spain, 68, is from Virginia. He’s lived in Florida since 2004 and in the area for about nine years. “I’m not a professional politician, so I say things that professional politicians won’t say,” he said. He said there are numerous national issues that affect the Treasure Coast, and it’s hard to pick one that’s most important. Unlike other candidates, he told Your Voice News & Views that immigration reform is one of the most important ones. “There’s a famous quote that you lose control of your borders, you lose control of your country,” he said. Spain said he lived in Texas and

White Shirt Night a help much needed funds FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS

TREASURE COAST — Enjoying a colorful evening at Taste Casual Dining in Hobe Sound, Helping People Succeed welcomed more than 100 guests to its annual White Shirt Night, where area artists “painted” colorful sketches on t-shirts, tote bags, aprons and ball caps. Eleven artists offered four art designs each, including florals, water scenes, mermaids, turtles, Royal Poinciana trees, alligators, birds, shells and more, all tropical scenes from the Treasure Coast. The artists included Kevin Hutchinson, Ginny Jones, Pam Patterson, Susan Roberts, Cristina de la Vega, Sharon Ferina, Sue Winocur, Valerie Lally, Dan Mackin, Paula MacArthur Cooper and James Hook. This year, the annual event benefits Helping People Succeed’s Camp Success summer learning program for 30 students, ages 6 to 12 years old with behavioral issues or special needs. These young people receive social skills, arts and crafts classes, and special tours to area museums, such as the Vero Beach Aquatics Center, the Smithsonian Marine Center and more. “Through a generous grant from the Children’s Services Council of St. Lucie County, children are offered experiences and learning opportunities they would not otherwise have,” said Ginny Jones, Clinical Director, Children’s Community Mental Health. “However, the grant awards are less each year. That is why your generous donation will help send kids to camp.” For additional information on Camp Success, please contact Glenna Parris, Gift Planning Officer, at (772) 320-0778. Helping People Succeed wishes to thank Taste Casual Dining owners Craig and Kar-

There’ll be a mandatory captains meeting on Aug. 4. That’s also at the marina and at 6 p.m. Traylor said owners Tim Mullen and Steve Brown took over the marina in 2012 and greatly increased its community connections. “Not only do we do the (annual boat) Christmas parade, but we do a snorkeling trip every year,” Traylor said. Additionally, the marina is helping veterans with catastrophic injuries. “We’re also helping to retrofit a boat for the Wounded Warrior Project to make it wheelchair ac-

cessible,” Traylor said. There’s more. “Something else we’re doing this year is a lecture series,” Traylor said. The lectures are free of charge. On Oct. 14, at 6 p.m., there’ll be a talk about in- and off-shore fishing. On Nov. 18, there’ll be one on how to prepare a boat for selling. The marina sells craft. “We have a partnership with BAVARIA Yachtbau,” Traylor said. “BAVARIA is new to the United States.” The marina has offerings for folks who don’t want to park their boats there fulltime. “We offer a social membership that gives you access to all the activities we do,” Traylor said. Normally that’s $175 a year, but those taking the Bahamas Fun Run will get the first year free of charge. One advantage of the social membership is having a place

FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS

ST. LUCIE WEST — They say if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. If you spend five minutes talking with Dr. Patrick Kelly, you’ll figure out immediately that he is doing what he loves. The long-time Port St. Lucie veterinarian, owner of Kelly’s Animal Hospital in St. Lucie West, spends his “workdays” caring for creatures of all kinds. To him, it’s not work. He is passionate about animals, and every one of the multitude of stories he tells illustrates that. When speaking with Kelly about animals, you can hear the passion in his voice and the fire in his eyes with his love of animals. Let’s start off with an early tale of him at the age of 2, down on all fours with the other dogs at mealtime, sharing the dog food with them as if it were just a

postUSA, had in mind when he invited people to see the facility, he said. He concedes that plans to create compost soil from human sludge “doesn’t paint a pleasant picture,” for those who don’t know about how it’s done and the safeguards in place. So, he said, he invited people to see what it’s like in Sumter County. “They have to come with an open mind and I don’t know that’s always the case,” Creeden said. CompostUSA applied in 2014 for a conditional use permit to build the facility on the land that previously was used for agriculture. The St. Lucie County Planning and Zoning board gave its OK.

But when the item came before the St. Lucie County Commission in March, opposing residents packed the Commission chambers and subsequently made hundreds of phone calls, sent hundreds of letters and petitions to the county. In May 2015, the Commission delayed a decision until the U.S. Food and Drug Administration finalizes changes to farming regulations for the fertilizer that would be produced by CompostUSA, Anderson said. Now, the item is slated for the Dec. 3, 2015, agenda for the County Commission. St. Lucie County Commissioner Chris Dzadovsky said that he wanted the Commission to consider the matter and make a final decision so that everyone concerned could attend the

dents in expressing concerns about CompostUSA’s plans. He said the proximity to PGA Village, which has high tax values is one concern. “I believe that can ultimately affect the tax values and have a negative impact on the county’s budget.” As for environmental issues, he said, that while CompostUSA maintains a berm would prevent run-off, a hurricane that produces flooding could negate that protection. The facility’s proximity to Allapattah Flats K-8 School 2 miles by road could present a possible problem, he said. “Every parent whose child attends that school should be against it,” he said. Anderson said she has no problems with CompostUSA creating fertilizer from human waste. The problem is that they want to do it so close to agriculture, so close to a vital canal, so close to a school and so close to PGA village, a community of 5,000 residents. She’s also concerned about bio aerosols from the site causing air pollution. A full environmental study needs to be conducted, she said. For some the whole thing may sound good on paper, but the reality is different, she said.

Creeden said that the Sumter County site is closer to residents than the proposed St. Lucie County site. But, he also said that one difference involved in getting the Sumter County site approved was that no conditional use permit was required. “That they (residents in St. Lucie County) would have this reaction never crossed my mind,” he said. Creeden said other people who have visited the Sumter County site have had more favorable reactions, but are less vocal. “You only hear from the ones who are against it,” he said. Creeden insisted that compacted shell on the site will prevent groundwater contamination and that the site is geared to deal with the type of intense storm that only occurs every 100 years. He said no one else has complained about getting sick from visiting the site and that no other visitors have talked about the odor. “We’re proud of what do,” he said. But, Anderson said, that she and other residents would have to live with it. “Every time it rains I would have to put a rag over my nose,” she said. “Would you want to live like that?”

ST. LUCIE WEST — Port St. Lucie Police have arrested West Palm Beach woman for stealing thousands in merchandise from Staples Retail Store. On July 6, 2015, Port St. Lucie Police arrested Strona Domonique Virgo, 28, of West Palm Beach, for grand theft and fraud for stealing over $9,000.00 in merchandise. On July 1, 2015, Virgo allegedly entered the Staples Retail Store located at 1729 NW St. Lucie West Boulevard and selected 4 Apple I Pads, 5 air gift cards, and a Western Digital Passport. Virgo gave the manager account information and authorization codes from a condominium association located in Clearwater, Florida. At this time the authorization was approved and Virgo was able to take the property from the store. On July 6, 2015, Staples’ security investigative services notified the manager that Virgo had fraudulently used the Clearwater condominium account to purchase the merchandise on July 1, and that Virgo in fact did not have authorization to use the account she provided for the

Virgo gave the Staples manager account information to a company in Sarasota, Florida. Investigation revealed that both accounts used by Virgo were active; however, they were being accessed and used fraudulently by Virgo. Port St. Lucie Police responded to the Staples Retail Store and arrested Virgo for the grand theft and fraud charges and transported her to the St. Lucie County Jail for booking.

Development block grant funds, the most the city has ever received Staff Reports

PORT ST. LUCIE — Lyngate Park and the Police Athletic League building seem to be almost certain beneficiaries of nearly $974,000 in federal Block Grant funds coming next fiscal year, but how the rest will be spent is still unresolved. After Community Services Director Pat Selmer presented her staff’s allocation recommendations to the City Council on June 22, council members agreed to table the issue until they had a chance to speak with Selmer individually. The council is expected to take up the question of how to spend the Block Grant money at its July 27 meeting. After 20 percent for administration costs is taken off the $973,786 – the most the city has ever received in Community Development Block Grant Funds, Selmer said – the proposed allocation of the remaining $779,209 includes: $114,700 to replace the roofs and siding on two buildings in Lyngate and to resurface basketball and tennis courts. $100,000 for a new roof on the Police Athletic Building. $11,000 to replace bathroom doors at Rivergate Park to make them accessible for the disabled. A $300,000 sidewalk project along Floresta Avenue, for example, had been left off the recommendations list because other projects had higher priorities, Selmer said. Since the state budget has been finalized, however, two of those projects may have less priority. For example, the biggest item on Selmer’s list — $316,329 for repairs and rehabilitation of private homes owned and occupied by low- to moderate-income families or individuals —might be reallocated now that city officials know the state budget recently signed by Gov. Rick Scott’s desk includes $827,887 in State Hous-

The city had been using SHIP (State Housing Initiative Partnership ) funds to help low-to-moderate income homeowners make repairs, but those state funds tapered in recent years. Pat Selmer Port St. Lucie Community Services Director ing Initiative Partnership (SHIP) funds for Port St. Lucie. The city had been using SHIP funds to help low - to moderate-income homeowners make repairs, but those state funds tapered in recent years, Selmer said. There is a $50,000 cap on what can be spent on any home, Selmer said, so after 10 percent is used for administration that amount would fund repairs for at least 16 homes among the 23 currently on the waiting list, though more needy people are always applying. Another $100,000 item was the city’s share of the cost to retrofit storm water storage to reduce flooding at Veterans Memorial Park, but the state did not fund that project. Other projects that have moved up the priority list since the state budget was finalized are additional repairs to the Police Athletic League building and $44,000 for new roofs on four buildings at Sandhill Crane Park, Selmer said. Community Services is responsible for the daily administration of the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. The CDBG program provides approximately $750,000 in funding each year to the city.

PORT ST. LUCIE – Many people think of fraternal orders like the Elks as being male preserves, but the Elks Lodge in St. Lucie West has Marge Spera as the exalted ruler and Adele Gallo as historian. Both spoke recently about the service projects the Lodge is involved with to help children and members of the Armed Forces, both here and overseas. Marge Spera has been an Elk for five years and is on her third term as Exalted Ruler. The Long Island, New York native has been in Florida for 35 years and worked as a mortgage loan officer. “I’d always been involved in fraternal organizations,” she said. “Five years ago, I retired

SPAIN from page 4 got an up-close look at illegal border crossing. “If they allow seven, eight or 10 million (undocumented immigrants) to become citizens, to step ahead in line of others doing it legally, it’ll be the death of the legal immigration system,” he said. He said part of the problem is how undocumented border crossers are handled once in the States. “When the people on the Border Patrol pick people up they give them to the (Citizenship and Immigration Services). The (Citizen-

ship and Immigration Services) ships them around the nation. They don’t actually deport them.” On the local, and national, front, Spain said one of the most important things Congress should be doing is helping local communities chart their futures. “I think proper growth planning will be key to the district,” he said. However, Spain said Congress must listen and respond to communities to give the wanted assistance. “‘We the people’ does not mean ‘We the government,’” he said. Spain added, “Everything is emanating from Washington to the

people when it should be emanating from the people to Washington.” Spain hasn’t decided yet whether he’ll seek to qualify by petition. Vicki Davis, Martin County’s Supervisor of Elections, said candidates for the 18th Congressional District who want to qualify by petition need to gather 4,854 signatures by next year. She said signers are free in primaries and general elections, 2016, to vote for candidates other than those they signed qualifying petitions for. A petition signer is only helping a candidate qualify for a run without having to pay the filing fee, 6 percent of the annual

salary of the office sought. The current salary of a rank-and-file member of Congress is $174,000. It’s been that since 2009. Those who don’t collect the needed signatures would have to pay nearly $10,500 to qualify. The congressional candidate is single with two adult children who live out of the area. He doesn’t have any campaign stops scheduled, but said those’ll be starting around September. In 2014, he ran as a Republican for the 22nd Congressional District.

Port St Lucie, FL- The most common method your doctor will recommend to treat your neuropathy is with prescription drugs that may temporarily reduce your symptoms. These drugs have generic names such as Gabapentin, Lyrica, or Cymbalta and are primarily antidepressant or anti-seizure drugs. These drugs may cause you to feel uncomfortable and have a variety of harmful side effects.

As you can see in Figure 2 , as the blood vessels that surround the nerves become diseased they shrivel up which causes the nerves to not get the nutrients to continue to survive. When these nerves begin to “die” they cause you to have balance problems, pain, numbness, tingling, burning and many additional symptoms. l blood these very smal Figure2: When seased they begin di e vessels becom the nerves begin to d to shrivel up an . te ra ne ge de

The amount of treatment needed to allow the nerves to fully recover varies from person to person and can only be determined after a detailed neurological and vascular evaluation. As long as you have not sustained at least 85% nerve damage then your condition can been treated

In order to effectively treat your neuropathy three factors must be determined. 1. What is the underlying cause? 2. How Much Nerve Damage Has Been Sustained. NOTE: Once you have sustained 85% nerve loss, there is nothing that we can do for you.

3. How much treatment will your condition require?

The treatment that is provided at our clinic has three main goals: 1. Increase blood flow

The main problem is that your doctor has told you to just live with the problem or try the drugs which you don’t like taking because they make you feel uncomfortable. There is now a facility right here on the Treasure Coast that offers you hope without taking those endless drugs with serious side effects. (see the special neruopathy severity examination at the end of this article)

2. Stimulates small fiber nerves

Dr. John Silva will be offering this neuropathy severity examination to the first 15 callers Call to make an appointment with Dr. Silva to determine if your peripheral neuropathy can be treated.

Peripheral neuropathy is a result of damage to the nerves often causing weakness, pain, numbness, tingling, and the most debilitating balance problems. This damage is commonly caused by a lack of blood flow to the nerves in the hands and feet which causes the nerves to begin to degenerate due to lack of nutrient flow.

Dr. John Silva at The Neuropathy Relief Center will do a neuropathy severity examination to determine the extent of the nerve damage for only $70. This neuropathy severity examination will consist of a detailed sensory evaluation, extensive peripheral vascular testing and a detailed analysis of the findings of your neuropathy.

3. Decrease brain-based pain Part o� o�r treatment protocol ��lizes a specialized low level light (L.E.D.) therapy to increase blood ﬂow as well as treatments to heal the nerve damage.

ELKS from page 15 and I had time. I joined the Elks.” Spera spoke after a weekend golf tournament, which is a fundraiser for the organization. Among the causes they support is the Florida Elks Youth Camp in Marion County. The camp is open to any Florida child, and campers are mainly drawn from Elks referrals. “My lodge subsidizes four children,” Spera said. “We gave free ‘camperships’ to children from the Boys & Girls Clubs and to a Guardian ad Litem for one of her children.” The camp normally costs $180 a week, a sum that is modest for camps but a great deal for families struggling to meet other needs, “Another project is a state-wide program of children’s therapy services,” Spera said. “It provides in-home physical and occupational therapy free of charge to families. A big project for our lodge is the school backpack program. We provide food for the weekends, when there is no school lunch program.” The Lodge is also active in causes affecting veterans and active service members. “We have a very good veterans program,” Spera said. “Once a

month, we give a free breakfast for the veterans of St. Lucie County. We collect toiletries for soldiers overseas and we have a liaison with the United Veterans Services in St. Lucie County. We do a lot of work with veterans in the community.” As historian, Adele Gallo is responsible for taking photos of the events and putting them together in one place as a record of what the Lodge has done. Gallo, a great-grandmother, moved to Florida from Bensonhurst, Brooklyn in 1971. The retired hairdresser also worked in the medical field and for QVC in Port St. Lucie. She has been involved with the Elks for four or five years. “I lived in Lake Forest and one of the women belonged,” she said. “The Elks are open to men and women 21 and older. It’s a very nice place for women alone. It’s comfortable. You can have a drink and socialize with people you’re getting to know. It’s a nice club. Being involved keeps you young.” The West St. Lucie Elks Lodge #2823 is located at 343 N.W. prima Vista Blvd. Lodge meetings are the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m. The Lodge welcomes new members.

Sea Turtle Hatching Season Ramps Up: Remember Sea Turtle-Friendly Practice on St. Lucie County Beaches FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS

ST. LUCIE COUNTY —Threatened and endangered sea turtle hatchlings emerge at night in large numbers on St. Lucie County beaches throughout the summer. Residents are asked to remember to practice sea turtle-friendly practices on the beaches during the summer months when hatchlings emerge in largest numbers. Sea turtle nesting season in St. Lucie County is in effect from March 1 through Nov. 15. Sea Turtle-Friendly Practices include: Curbing your pet’s activities.

Walton Rocks Beach is the official dog beach in St. Lucie County, and dogs should be minded especially during nesting season. Digging up sea turtle nests is a serious matter. Do not disturb sea turtle nests. Hatchlings should not be handled and should be given unobstructed access to the ocean. Disoriented sea turtle hatchlings can be reported to Florida Fish and Wildlife at 1-888-404-FWCC. Please remove all beach furniture and other obstacles before sunset. Trash should be disposed of properly. Call local police or the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission if someone is ha-

rassing sea turtles, handling hatchlings or poaching: 1-888404-FWCC. Beachfront residents should follow proper lighting requirements. Sea turtle-friendly lighting requirements remain in effect during nesting season, which in St. Lucie County is March 1 through Nov. 15. For additional information about Sea Turtle Friendly Beaches, please contact Ken Gioeli, Natural Resources Extension Agent, at 772 462-1660 or via email at ktgioeli@ufl.edu.

KELLY from page 7 natural thing. “My parents went into the kitchen and they found me, literally on all fours sharing the dog food with the dogs, and I guess that was the start of my veterinary career, my love of animals.” Kelly remembers. Kelly was born in Puerto Rico, where he lived on a huge 200acre tropical compound with his family. His parents were avid animal lovers and had many different types of animals on the compound, including dogs, cats, horses and even monkeys. One of the more unusual additions to their family of animals occurred when Kelly was 6 years old and a male baboon had escaped a traveling circus. The baboon ended up finding its way to the Kelly compound, where Kelly was the first to spot it. He recalls awakening his parents and getting his mother to come outside with him to see it. He walked right up to it with no fear and was trying to hand feed it. His mother filmed the event and he still has the video to this day. He recalls his mother being overprotective, as she was a World War II survivor, yet she had no problem with him approaching a baboon at 6 years old. Even to his family, his love and camaraderie with animals

was very evident. The baboon actually felt at home there, because he stayed around their property for three years until they moved, playing with the dogs as if he were just part of the family. Kelly moved to Port St. Lucie in 1976 where he attended Indian River Community College in Fort Pierce and received his Associate in Arts in 1978. He went on to receive his Bachelor’s in Science in 1981 from University of Florida’s Department of Agriculture and continued on his educational path into his passion. He attended the University of Florida’s College of Veterinary Medicine and was awarded his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine in 1986. It took him three tries to get into veterinary school, as it tends to be very competitive. The last year he was applying, he decided if he did not make it, he would go to medical school. His third time was a charm and luckily he was able to pursue his calling. Kelly worked with Dr. Totilas at what is now Kindness Animal Hospital after graduating, until he opened his own practice in 1990. Dr. Kelly now lives on 23.5 acres in Fort Pierce with his family; wife Carolyn and four children William, Christopher, Katherine and Mikaela. Their animal family consists of 7 dogs, 15 cats, 8 par-

“I always wanted to work with animals. That’s the only thing I ever wanted to be, was a veterinarian.” Dr. Patrick Kelly rots, 8 horses, 4 goats, a lamb, 11 pigs, 3 rabbits, a sulcata tortoise and their pet calf Norma. Norma was adopted 3 years ago from local animal rescue volunteers Wendy and Dan Dwyer. Norma was suffering from failure to thrive. Kelly took the calf into his care where the calf is now just one of the family pets. If you peruse his website, you can see a picture of Kelly fondly planting a kiss right on the cow’s lips! Kelly’s 5,000-square-foot facility is run by Carol Carter and a host of other passionate, dedicated employees. They have a state of the art facility that is equipped with four large exam rooms and has surgical capabilities. Pets can receive medical, surgical and even dental care. There is hospital digital radiography, computers in every room, an in house lab, an in house pharmacy, intraoperative monitoring of vital signs and isoflurane anesthesia. There is even availability of cancer medicine, emergency care, behavioral

counseling and counseling for new pet owners. Visiting the website, potential customers can find a vast array of information including pet articles and video, advice on seasonal care, mealtime and grooming and there are also blogs. A list of local and national resources can be found as well, along with information on how to go about attaining health insurance for your pet. He has a dedicated staff and thriving practice due to his natural love of animals. Kelly’s passion for animals is demonstrated on his website, in his facility, his staff, his personal life and every aspect of it thereafter. When questioned on his decision to become a veterinarian he will clearly tell you, “I always wanted to work with animals. That’s the only thing I ever wanted to be, was a veterinarian.” Dr. Kelly’s website can be visited for more information at www. kellysanimalhospital.com.

HEALTH from page 12 the Tradition market and with Martin Health System, we are very excited to acquire the existing building but it was the opportunity to acquire the additional land contiguous to a new hospital that made this a high-priority target for us,” Optimal Outcomes principal Andy Boggini said in a news release. “As a healthcare development company, we really viewed this as one of those rare opportunities that doesn’t come along very often.” Optimal Outcomes Principal Patrick Marston said in the release, “We are currently looking at

several options, including another building connected to the hospital as well as free-standing buildings capable of accommodating high-acuity providers such as cancer, diagnostic and surgical centers.” Duffin said, “We are seeing in the market a shift from east to west for medical offices. A lot of development is happening on the west side of town.” He said some doctor’s offices opening near Tradition Medical Center are new to the area, and others are doctor’s second offices. But he said he is also seeing “some doctors moving west and closing their offices on the east side.”

ST. LUCIE COUNTY — If a child goes missing here, residents living in surrounding neighborhoods will likely receive calls from law enforcement notifying them of the situation. City law enforcement agencies and the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office have a reverse 911 system, that is named as such because instead of the resident calling in for help, the law enforcement is contacting residents. As of June 30, all residents will be served by a new reverse 911 system called CodeRed, which will increase the speed at which the notifications can be sent out, said St. Lucie County Deputy Glenn Hoffman, who deals with crime prevention. Previously, the county was served by the FirstCall system. The system can make 300 calls per minute, he said. In the future, there’s a possibility that residents also will be able to receive notifications through Facebook and Twitter. Hoffman said the Sheriff’s Office is publi-

cizing the change in hopes that more residents will register their phone numbers for the service. “A lot of residents don’t have home phones,” he said. “They have cell phones.” He encourages people to register their cell phones, as well as Internet phones and magicJack. Hoffman said they have used the system in cases of lost children and adults, special events, evacuations and in cases where a sexual predator has changed addresses, residents living within a mile received notifications. It was used recently when there was a cut-off of natural gas and at least once for a road closing, Hoffman said. Notifications can be targeted to very narrow areas, such as one side of a street. If a family has more than one phone number, he said, all of the phone numbers can be registered. Registration can be accomplished at st.luciesheriff.com/ enotification or by calling the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office crime prevention unit at (772) 871-5303. Those who have registered a phone number don’t need to register it again.

FORT PIERCE – Missoula Children’s Theatre stages original musicals based on familiar tales. Local campers at the third of four workshops/camps presented by MCT at the Sunrise Theatre will stage “The Little Mermaid,” but it’s not the Disney version. Brenna Murray, one of two actor-directors for the camp, said the plot of the show, which will be presented July 24, differs from the more familiar version. “We have a Mermaid family,” she said. “Celia is the littlest mermaid, and there are the twins, Amelia and Ophelia and sister Delia. The have a friend, Gill. For each sister’s 16th birthday, they are given permission to visit the World Above. In the World Above, there is a King, Queen and Prince.

MISSOULA from page 27 tions and theater major. “Right after graduation, I did an internship at Thunder Bay Theatre in Alpena, Michigan,” she said. “The artistic director had heard wonderful things about MCT. I auditioned and here I am. I love so many things about it. I love working with children and bringing theater to so many children who would never get this experience. For many, it’s a bit of fresh air. It’s all about the kids. It makes my day that we’re impacting their lives.” Kelsey Moe is the other half of the acting/directing duo. This is also her first tour in the summer. She is attending graduate school at West Illinois University, studying for a master’s degree in fine arts. A native of Minnesota, she received a bachelor’s degree in directing from Southwestern Minnesota State University. She attended theater auditions in the Twin Cities and received a callback from MCT. “I love working with kids and opening up their minds to something completely new, especially those who are not familiar with the theater,” she said. “I’ve been working with children and theater for 10 years, but never in a traveling theater.

esting to work with different kids in different locations. I’m kind of like a big kid. Kids are so much more creative. This is my dream job.” For Moe, the message in “The Little Mermaid” is about connecting well with family and friends. It’s something she knows about. Her husband is a lighting designer, working in California for the summer. She would love to work in the home office in Missoula someday so they could spend time in the same city. For now, though, she’s happy. “I love it,” she said. “I’m enriching their lives and opening up their minds.” The camp and workshop for “The Little Mermaid,” presented by Missoula Children’s Theatre, will take place July 20-24 at the Sunrise Theatre, 117 S.
