Don t let a fear of ticks and Lyme disease keep you from enjoying nature. By taking a few precautions, you and your family can experience Maine s summer to the fullest. According to RFGH Medical Director and family physician, Michael Lambke, MD, when it comes to protecting your family from ticks (and exposure to Lyme and other tick-borne diseases), prevention is everything. It s important to know where ticks are, to take the precautions necessary to reduce exposure to ticks, and to remove ticks promptly and properly when they do attach to the body, said Dr. Lambke. Ticks tend to be more numerous in wooded areas and in tall grass. When exploring the woods, make sure to cover up with long sleeved shirts, long pants, and socks to avoid picking up ticks. Make sure your yard and other play areas are mowed regularly to keep ticks from congregating in the tall grass. Keep infants protected with clothing and bug nets that can fit over a stroller or playpen. Use a bug repellent that is effective against ticks. Make sure to read the instructions on the package to find out how long a particular bug repellent is effective; then re-apply as needed. Make sure to treat household pets with a veterinarian-approved tick and flea repellant product. Do not use sprays intended for humans. Pets coming into the house from the outdoors may bring ticks along with them. All Bug Sprays Are Not Created Equally While all sprays will repel mosquitoes, not all are effective in protection from ticks. Use an EPA-registered repellent with an active ingredient proven to repel ticks. These include: DEET Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus Picaridin Citronella IR3535 p-menthane-3,8-diol 2-undecanone Catnip Oil * Know Ticks; No Lyme is a public health campaign sponsored by the Maine CDC. -continued on Page 2.
2 Know Ticks; No Lyme (continued from Page 1.) Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, do a daily Tick Check. Checking yourself and your children s bodies for ticks should be a part of every person s daily routine, recommends Dr. Lambke. Just like showering and brushing your teeth, make it a daily habit to examine yourself, family members, and pets for ticks. Don t panic if you do find a tick. Ticks must be attached for at least 24-hours for the bacteria that causes Lyme disease to be transmitted, said Dr. Lambke, So as long as you are scanning your body daily and removing the tick appropriately, there is no need to be overly concerned. Use a tweezer to remove ticks by grasping the tick as closely to your skin as possible and gently pull the tick out. Make sure you get all of the tick and don t squeeze the tick s body, which could force the blood inside the tick to re-enter your body. For more information, visit the following websites: EPA-registered repellants: Maine CDC: Better Breathers Support Group COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) is a serious disease which is most generally caused by cigarette smoking. It is the fourth leading cause of death in the United States. Over time COPD can cause increased shortness in breath which results in decreased mobility and muscle wasting. However COPD can be controlled with medications and exercise. The RFGH Better Breathers Support Group is a free, informal group for those with breathing issues such as COPD, emphysema or asthma. It is also a support group for any person interested in or touched by someone with breathing issues. At each group meeting we discuss an educational topic, often featuring a guest speaker. There is always plenty of time for visiting, sharing and encouraging one another. The group meets on the third Thursday of every month, 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. in RFGH Conference Room #4. COPD can control your life, and is a serious threat to your quality of life. We want you to know you are not alone and there is help here for you. Please feel free to join us, we would love to see you. 2 Quotes from our Support Group Members: I would have difficulty without the support of this group and its directors. It brings my spirits up. -Darla Pickett, Journalist This support group has improved the quality of my life. -Dolly Sevinson Support here has doubled my walking ability since coming here. -Bruce Foss

5 Quality Improvement Collaborative Improves Patient Care at RFGH Since the spring of 2009 the RFGH Medical/Surgical Department staff has been participating in a national collaborative that engages nurses and frontline staff to improve the quality and safety of patient care. RFGH was selected as one of sixteen hospitals across the U.S. (and one of four in Maine) to the Aligning Forces for Quality: Transforming Care at the Bedside Collaborative (TCAB Collaborative), an initiative of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF). The TCAB Collaborative is not a traditional quality improvement program; one primary characteristic that sets it apart is its focus on engaging frontline staff and unit managers. Ideas for transforming the way care is delivered on medical/surgical units come from the nurses and other care team members who spend the most time with patients and their families. These teams identify where change is needed, suggest and test potential solutions, and decide whether those innovations should be implemented. Under the guidance of department manager, Norma Munn, RN-BC, and a TCAB team, med/surg nurses and other staff directly responsible for patient care learned to make quality, value-added changes that improve team vitality and focus to how care is provided at the bedside. Participating in the TCAB Collaborative brought about a fundamental change in the culture in our department, commented RFGH med/surg nurse Susannah Warner, RN-BC. As someone working directly with the patients in our unit, I definitely feel more empowered to direct my own practice and know that my ideas about improving patient care are listened to and valued. Innovations developed by the frontline staff at RFGH had led to improvements in patient care and safety, benefiting both patients and their family members. A TCAB subcommittee worked on changes to our fall protocol, resulting in an improvement to our ability to assess a patient s risk for falls, stated department manager, Norma Munn, RN. The department has since noticed a decline in patient falls and resultant injuries. Other improvements implemented include bedside reporting at the end of the shift to provide the patient an easier transition to the staff working the next shift; the development of a post-operative menu that provides lighter fare for patients recovering from anesthesia; and improvements to how different departments within the hospital work together for a more seamless continuum of care. Since becoming involved in TCAB in 2009, Munn said, we have seen an improvement in our patient outcomes, patient satisfaction, and staff job satisfaction. 5
6 RFGH Friends & Staff Walk in Relay for Life Two teams captained by RFGH employees participated in this year s Relay for Life to benefit the American Cancer Society. The Lifesavers team was led by team captain Kim Baiko, RN from the med/ surg unit. Her team raised approximately $3,578. The All-Nighters, led by team captain Heidi Lyman, BSN of Cardiac Rehab raised $2,500. Lyman also served on the committee for the relay event. The event raised, in total, $111,000 to date. RFGH Trek Across Maine Team Rides Again! This was RFGH s biggest team ever! Twenty-two cyclists raised over $15,200 this year for the American Lung Association. Funds were raised through a dinner/ auction, calendar prize raffle, bottle drives, etc. The weather cooperated this year with sunny skies and cool breezes as we cycled a total of 180 miles over 3 days, from Bethel to Belfast, commented Trek rider and RFGH employee, Paula Schoenthaler. This is the second year our team qualified for a tent in Team Tent City. Team Tent City is reserved for the first thirty teams to have 15 registered members. Tent City was on the second day of the Trek at Colby College, it was a place where the team gathered to have a BBQ, joined by coworkers, friends and family members who helped celebrate the team s accomplishment. 6
