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 />

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 />
