June 4, 1998 LAKESIDE Lakeside Review Davis woman battles land mines Red Cross delegate planning trip month and training Cambodians to be prosthetic technicians. to Cambodia As many as 10 million land mines are scattered throughout the Cambodian countryside. More than 62,000 land mines have been removed from the country over the past six years at a cost of $60 million. The United Nations has estimated that while a single land mine may cost between $3 and $30, it costs $300 to $1,000 to remove one. The Associated Press CLEARFIELD - Julia Groom-Thomp-so- n, the new executive director of the Northern Utah chapter of the American Red Cross, is an ardent supporter of the total ban on land mines. In a week, the Clearfield resident will be on her way to Cambodia - her first trip to one of the more than 70 countries where millions of land mines lie hidden in fields and jungles. She will be one of three American Red Cross executives in the delegation, which will spend four days visiting a rehabilitation center in Phnom Penh where prosthetic devices are built and fitted. Im certainly excited, she said. But its going to be emotionally difficult. During the past 55 years, antipersonnel mines have caused more deaths and injuries than nuclear, biological and chemical weapons combined. It is estimated that, worldwide, 24,000 adults and children fall victim to land mines - one every 20 minutes. Mine injuries are devastating. Sometimes the explosives detonate on contact. Some jump to knee or chest height; some spray nails or steel pellets. International Red Cross surgeons say mine blasts result in amputations virtually 100 percent of the time. In Cambodia, one of every 236 people is an amputee. Since 1991, the American Red Cross has provided prosthetics to more than 2,100 people, building 55 artificial legs per land mines. Military strategists call land mines force multipliers. They hold off troops, or occupy them with caring for the wounded. Gen. John Tilelli, commander of the combined U.S.-Sout- h Korean forces, has said he agrees with a ban on the indiscriminate use of land mines, but that his forces do not use them indiscriminately. Health care professionals can learn more about an unusual university program that will give them an opportunity to earn a bachelors degree. A representative from the University of St. Francis will discuss the Health Arts Program at information meetings June 24 at noon at Davis Hospital and Medical Center and at 4 p.m. at Pioneer Valley Hospital, and on June 25 at noon at Shriners Hospital, at 4 p.m. at Jordan Valley Hospital and at 6 p.m. at Salt Lake City Regional Medical Center. The Health Arts Program offers health care professionals who have completed associate degrees andor hospital diplomas the opportunity to earn a bachelor of science degree by providing the liberal arts portion of their education, said Steve Volkening, associate dean. We recognize the value of previous education and professional experience and award credits for both, Volkening said.
