Show by WITH MESSENGER Mai Cali Volume 93 Number 14 Ah, Justice . . . The wheels of justice turn in strange ways at times. In the recent United Mine Workers strike, a judge issued an order directing the miners back to work. The strikers told him to shove it and refused to work. No action was taken. In Ohio striking teachers also were ordered back to the classroom by a judge. They, too, ignored the legitimate order, with no action taken against them. But in New Jersey last week a poor refused to newspaper reporter comply with a judges order to turn over some of his notes from which he wrote a story, so they speedily threw him in the clink, where he still is. Theres something wrong here. Driving down the freeway near Provo last week (at my usual 58 mph), I was nearly run over by one of those 1 monsters, and seconds later by a Greyhound bus. Both had to have been going over 70. A few moments later I passed a highway patrolman writing out a ticket to a hot rodder in a leather jacket and a beard, while the truck and bus went roaring past with no action. In fact in all my years of driving Ive yet to see a trucker get a ticket. Thats justice??? This summer a number of parking violators in Manti were issued citations and paid their fines. Later the city council refunded their money and sent each an apology. But if I make a U turn in the middle of Main Street at 2 a.m. when there isnt a car closer than Sterling, you can bet Ill get a ticket, and it wont be fixed either. So, wheres the justice in that? Oh well, I guess its better that a fe w gu ilty get off scott free th an it is to punish an innocent person. jMANTI, UTAH 84642, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1978 EpEaraaimi Colfy Generating Project lnlydro-EIe?r- ic Ephraim City has employed an engineering firm to develop plans for a c municipal system. Kaiserman Associates, Inc., consulting engineers, will develop plans for the project, including the environmental impact assessment, criteria for manufacturing the generator and a projected bond election, for a fee not to exceed $10,000, Mayor Halbert Jensen said. hydro-electri- A feasibility study has indicated sufficient available for the project, according to the mayor. He said that Ephraim City Irrigation Co. is considering the sale of 2.34 shares of irrigation water to the city for culinary use as a contribution to the project.

Elk Season Opening y Present diversion system is accomplished now by merely bulldozing a pile of rocks in the main stream bed to divert the water into the power canal. Fire or Ambulance Big game manager Jim Bates also had some words of advice: Most of the pressure is on the east side of the Manti but it seems like the last couple of years the elk have changed their feeding patterns and more are staying on the west side now, especially on the southern end of the unit. Competition will be tougher this year. The Division of Wildlife Resources has issued over 35,000 open bull permits, an increase of 7,000 over last year. Hunter success is expected to be about the same however, with around 10 per cent getting their elk. Ephraim, Manti and Sterling hunters are likely to do better than that because they know where theyre likely to find their game, in places like the Muddy, the Face and Willow Creek.

JL tr Home Health Care Possible The Sanpete Valley Hospital has received notification from the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) that it is included in a $54,558 grant to establish a home health care program for the hospital service area. The announcement was made by Wayne Ross, hospital administrator. lawffisifipites Mew Beth didnt like my Trivia column last week. She didnt mind my looking at the pretty girls across the street, but she said that the story told about her cast aspersions on her sales resistance. An attractive young stenographer made a practice of coming in about five minutes late every day. Repeated warnings by her superior had no effect. Finally, in exasperation, he announced: Miss Brown, Im tired of talking about your tardiness. Im suspending you for one day without pay. What day do you prefer? Well, if its all right with you, she replied instantly, Id like to use it up being late." 20c a copy Grant Makes Home health care, as the name implies, is any medical service, ordered by a physician, that can be brought to the home. The patient is treated in his home by a home health care nurse. An example is the case of a serious illness that requires hospitalization, then a long period of convalescing. Upon the doctors approval, if the hospital has a home health care program, the patient need not spend long canvalescent periods in the hospital, but may reeoter at home under a qualified home health care nurse who makes home visits as necessary. In addition, the highly-trainenurse can instruct family members to assist in the patients recovery. The program w ill be primarily directed at senior citizens, but can be effective in any homebound case. d The obvious results of such a program are lower health care costs, Mr. Ross said. The program is family oriented and provides home care in the relaxed coziness of the patients own home, with the comfort of family surroundings and home cooking to speed recovery. The $54,558 federal grant that has been approved envisions patient revenues of another $27,210 for a total budget of $81,768 for the first year of operation. The grant is to provide home health care in five Utah counties: Sanpete, Sevier, Millard, Piute and Wayne. The funds will be divided among three participating hospitals that will provide the services: Sanpete Valley Hospital, Sevier Valley Hospital in Richfield and Fillmore Hospital in Fillmore. All three hospitals began gearing up for home health care programs October 1; however, it will be a couple of months before the program actually involves patients. The home health care program in Southern Utah originated with Garfield Memorial Hospital in Panguitch, which received a federal grant two years ago to establish a program in that area. The success of that program steered other administrators to duplicate the services for patients in the respective hospitals service areas. The experience from Panguitch will be put to work in the other three areas. The administrators and directors of nursing of the three hospitals concerned will select a qualified, certified, registered nurse to serve as nurse coordinator in each area. The next step will be to train the nurse coordinator and nurse assistants who will work in the program. A nurse from Panguitch experienced in home health care will do the training and oversee the program's development. It is anticipated that the program will be available to patients in the respective areas by December 1, 1978. What services will be provided: A Skilled care. nursing will out the nurse carry registered physicians plan of treatment and evaluate the patient's needs. She will supervise medications, give injections, change dressings, and help teach the family to care for the patient. Home health Home health aides. aides will provide basic personal care such as bathing, dressing, feeding, and walking the patient. The aide will also perform minimal housekeeping tasks to maintain order. Physical therapycontract services. A physical therapist will give treatment to relieve pain, develop exercises and implement a self-helprogram to enable the patient to regain optimum use of his physical abilities. Contract services will provide needed medical supplies and training for the use of medical appliances prescribed under the doctors plan of treatment. . Other assistance needed by the patient, as determined by the physician, will be provided. All four hospitals in Southern Utah connected with home health care are members of Intermountain Health Care, Inc. (IHC). Eugene Beck, IHCs regional administrator for Southern Utah, will have overall responsibility for the successful operation of the programs. p Hospitals which are members of IHC share services among 32 hospitals in the Intermountain West. Through such shared programs as purchasing, insurance, data processing, etc., IHC member hospitals costs per patient stay are 28 percent below the national average and 19 percent below the regional average. Therefore, patients that have access to IHC hospitals not only receive quality care, but do so at economical rates. |
