Nominations for Western Pima County Community Council<br />

representatives of odd-numbered districts will be accepted<br />

throughout November, with election taking place at the<br />

Thursday, December 6, meeting. All new candidates must<br />

be a legal resident of the district they seek to represent, be<br />

a registered voter in Arizona, submit a notarized statement<br />

declaring the candidate has not been convicted of a felony or<br />

crime involving fraud, and submit a one-page resume listing<br />

qualifications. Qualifications should include education, work<br />

experience or any previous community involvement, and a<br />

paragraph on the goals they envision for western Pima County.<br />

Candidates for reelection must submit a form stating their<br />

intention to run and a statement declaring that the previous<br />

notarized statement is still true. All paperwork must be<br />

completed and received by the election committee two weeks<br />

prior to the election.<br />

Local healthcare<br />

is topic for talk<br />

Desert Senita Community<br />

Health Center is helping to sponsor<br />

a public forum on healthcare<br />

issues scheduled for Tuesday, October<br />

9, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the<br />

<strong>Ajo</strong> Ambulance training room.<br />

The forum, called A Community<br />

Conversation on Healthcare, will<br />

include a variety of healthcare<br />

providers and policy makers from<br />

the Office of Rural Healthcare,<br />

Children’s Action Alliance, and<br />

other agencies along with a number<br />

of legislators. It is free and<br />

open to the public.<br />

It will be a time to share ideas<br />

about healthcare priorities for<br />

families and the community as<br />

a whole. DSCHC director Fran<br />

Driver said some examples<br />

might include the desire for a<br />

local physical therapy department,<br />

home health and assistance<br />

in daily living, or some medical<br />

specialty service that is currently<br />

lacking in the area.<br />

The discussion may cover possible<br />

changes in the Medicaid<br />

system and the Affordable Care<br />

Act, among other policy issues.<br />

Driver said it is important for<br />

as many community members to<br />

attend as possible.<br />

“The more that state agencies<br />

are aware of our needs, the more<br />

likely we are to receive funding<br />

for those services,” she said.<br />

To learn more about the forum,<br />

CPR is changing,<br />

still saving lives<br />

CPR standards are changing.<br />

Continuous chest compression<br />

resuscitation is replacing the<br />

former approach of combining<br />

chest compressions with rescue<br />

breaths. Continuous chest compression<br />

is simple and does not<br />

require mouth-to-mouth contact,<br />

making it more likely that bystanders<br />

will try to help, according<br />

to websites of the University<br />

of Arizona College of Medicine<br />

where it was developed.<br />

While aspirin is touted as an<br />

immediate remedy, reputable<br />

sources, such as the American<br />

Heart Association, advise calling<br />

911 immediately, waiting no<br />

more than five minutes after the<br />

chest pain starts. If aspirin is taken,<br />

it should be done after 911 is<br />

called.<br />

“The more important thing to<br />

do if any heart attack warning<br />

signs occur is to call 911 immediately.<br />

Don’t do anything before<br />

calling 911. In particular, don’t<br />

take an aspirin, then wait for it<br />

to relieve your pain. Don’t postpone<br />

calling 911. Aspirin won’t<br />

treat your heart attack by itself,”<br />

according to the www.heart.org<br />

the American Heart Association’s<br />

website, which notes that ambulance<br />

personnel will normally<br />

give aspirin as part of their chest<br />

pain treatment.<br />

The AHA cautions against<br />

aspirin if a stroke is suspected.<br />

“Taking aspirin isn’t advised<br />

during a stroke, because not all<br />

strokes are caused by blood clots.<br />

Most strokes are caused by clots,<br />

but some are caused by ruptured<br />

blood vessels. Taking aspirin<br />

could potentially make these<br />

bleeding strokes more severe.”<br />

<strong>Ajo</strong> Museum<br />

getting ready<br />

for new season<br />

The <strong>Ajo</strong> Museum is getting<br />

ready for a new season. Though<br />

a board meeting has been postponed,<br />

efforts to spruce the museum<br />

up are going ahead.<br />

A volunteer cleanup will be<br />

held on Saturday, October 13,<br />

starting at 9 a.m. Helping hands<br />

and cleaning supplies are needed,<br />

says curator Louie Walters, who<br />

says they hope to have everything<br />

in order to be open by the Red &<br />

White Weekend.<br />

Beginning October 19, the<br />

museum will be open daily from<br />

noon to 4 p.m. except for some<br />

holidays. There is no entrance fee<br />

but donations are needed to offset<br />

operating and maintenance costs.<br />

Volunteers are welcome and<br />

should contact Walters.<br />

The <strong>Ajo</strong> Historical Society<br />

board meeting has been rescheduled<br />

from October 9 to November<br />

13 at the museum.<br />

AUSD board<br />
