Southern California Medical Museum: Celebrating modern medicine by exploring the history of healing
By Alison Elsner For DMHN Setting aside the uncertainties over the future of health care coverage, there are some constants that we can not only focus on, but also heartily celebrate. Today we are fortunate to live in a period and culture of tremendous sophistication in the field of medicine. Most of these developments, marvels of modern medicine, would have been considered science fiction or at least
impossibilities just a few decades ago. Treatments like 3-D printing to create prosthetic limbs and heart valves, NeuroPace brain sensors to stop seizures in their tracks, proton therapy to fight cancer, a new miracle drug to knock out Hep-C and dozens of others are restoring quality of life as well as survival rates for populations in America and across the globe. With this perspective in mind, it’s clear that the Southern California Medical Museum (SCMM) unravels
a fascinating journey back in time. It presents us with jaw-dropping medical treatments, tools, and accepted practices of yesteryear, many of which were noteworthy, some of which were completely contrary to modern sanitation and successful healing and a few which were outright quackery. Understanding our past helps us appreciate our present, and visiting this Museum is a powerful way to ratchet up our own mindfulness of the world around us. The SCMM houses a treasure trove
of fascinating medical, dental and pharmacy artifacts, wartime surgery kits, impressive medical artwork and photographs, rare and antique bottles used to hold and dispense salves, pills, powders and elixirs, hard to believe quackery devices and numerous special exhibits. There is even a lifelike diorama re-creation of a doctor and dentist’s office as it would have appeared during the 1910 - 1930’s here in the United States.

Social Security Matters: “Ask Rusty”- Raiding the Social Security Trust Fund By AMAC Certified Social Security Advisor Russell Gloor, Association of Mature American Citizens Dear Rusty: I would like to know how much money has been taken out of Social Security by presidents, and was any paid back with or without interest on the withdrawal? Signed: Wants to Know Dear Wants to Know: The idea that any President or Congress has taken money out of the Social Security Trust Fund is simply not an accurate description of how the Social Security system works. I know these accusations abound on the Internet, normally promoted by someone or some organization trying to further a political agenda. But the reality is that the Social Security program has, since its inception in 1935, been a “pay as you go” system where current workers pay Social Security taxes to fund benefits for current beneficiaries. Over the years, when there were many more workers than beneficiaries, considerably more was taken in than was paid out in benefits
and the surplus each year is placed in the Social Security Trust Fund, which as of June 2016 had a value of 2.81 trillion dollars. By law, Social Security is required to invest that surplus in special issue U.S. Treasury securities, not unlike those available to private investors, which are backed by the “full faith and credit of the U.S. Government”, but these special issue securities are redeemable at any time at face value. These securities typically yield interest of about 1.5 - 2.375 percent (2016 rates), and this interest aids in growing the value of the trust fund. Now, yes, investing in those securities is technically loaning money from the Trust Fund to the U.S.Treasury, where the money can be used for any purpose the Government sees fit, just like all other revenues the Government collects from anywhere. But that loan and those securities can be called for payment at any time by the Social Security Administration when it needs money to pay benefits to Social Security recipients. So when you read or hear something about Congress or one or the other President “raiding” the Social Security Trust Fund, it is simple
hyperbole designed to stir emotion and promote an agenda. The reality is that Social Security must, by law, invest surplus funds in interest-bearing special issue Government securities, essentially loaning money to the U.S. Treasury which must be repaid upon demand. It’s worthwhile to note here that there are actually two parts to the “trust fund”; one for Old Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) benefits and another for Disability Insurance (DI) benefits. Although there is now 2.8 trillion dollars in both of these funds, the current lower ratio of workers to beneficiaries means that both of these funds either already are (as with DI) or soon will (as with OASI) start to be depleted to pay benefits. This is why you are now hearing concerns about Social Security’s financial solvency. Current projections
by the Funds’ Trustees are that the Disability Insurance fund will be depleted by about 2022 and the OASI fund will be depleted about 2034. If Congress does not act before then to reform the program, benefits at that time would be limited to paying out only as much as was received in Social Security revenue, which could mean about a 21% reduction in benefits. However, given the intensity of the spotlight on this issue today, it’s probable that Congressional action will be taken in sufficient time to ensure the program’s solvency for the foreseeable future. The information presented in this article is intended for general information purposes only. The Foundation welcomes questions from readers regarding Social Security issues.

Southern California Medical Museum: Celebrating modern medicine by exploring the history of healing << Continues from page 1 include a series of invalid feeders designed to provide liquids to patients unable to sit up in bed. Some pieces date back to 1750 and others were still used in the early 1900s, including birthing chairs, bleeding bowls and leeches. Instruments used during times of war, including the Civil War, are also part of the Museum’s collection, with an amputation kit that holds 3040 medical implements in its original travel case made of rosewood. A wide variety of historical periods, geographic locations and medical specialties are represented. SCMM is the only museum in southern California dedicated to the collection and preservation of medical artifacts and history of medicine. The Museum was established in 1982 by Merlin A. Hendrickson, M.D. A project of the San Bernardino County Medical Society (SBCMS), a regional, non-profit organization that provides support to 3,000 physicians and medical groups to strengthen access and quality of patient care, the SCMM is currently housed on the campus of the

Western University of Health Sciences (WUHS) in charming Old Town Pomona, California. Bert (Hans) Davidson, M.D., Ph.D., a retired OB-GYN, fertility expert and historian in his own right, serves as the Museum’s distinguished director, and he has personally procured many of the Museum’s artifacts in the U.S. and abroad. He is a recognized expert on the Civil War with particular emphasis on the challenges involved in wartime care such as contaminated conditions and commonplace practice of amputation, and he lectures frequently on the topic. Dr. Davidson’s partner, Katherine Marquardt, is the PR whiz that handles much of the Museum’s marketing outreach. Elliot Weinstein, M.D. is the Museum’s masterful curator and is a well-respected practicing pediatrician in the Inland Empire. Museum tours are popular among individuals, senior and school groups, community organizations, corporate gatherings and those studying at trade schools, two-year, four-year and career colleges. Fees are nominal, at $5 for adults, $3 for children and free for mili-
tary personnel (additional docent fee for large groups).There is a strong need for volunteer docents (tour guides) at the Museum for anyone interested in volunteering a few hours a month at scheduled times of their choosing and convenience, with fun and interactive training provided. The great thing about learning and enlightenment is that once it takes hold, there’s no turning back; we are forever transformed in some way. The

Helping Seniors is Rewarding Jewish Family Service of the Desert (JFS) always needs volunteers. For nearly 30 years, it has provided social services to the people of the Coachella Valley, regardless of religious affiliation. Here’s how you can help: • Be a “Friendly Visitor.” This program matches volunteers with seniors who are homebound or have limited mobility, to provide companionship and support. Begun in 1982, it is an important asset to Valley seniors. You visit as often as time allows, and that could include simply visiting in his/ her home, or going out, such as for coffee or lunch. • Be the “Lead” at Let’s Do Lunch (LDL), a regularly scheduled program for seniors that provides a chance to socialize and get support in a friendly setting. The 2-hour programs, including lunch, are free. Two sites need a lead/emcee: Park David Apartments (Cathedral City) and the Palm Springs Pointe Apartments. There’s usually a program, such as education, arts, games or speakers. The Lead acts as
June 1, 2017
emcee, which could include registration, announcements, introducing speakers and distributing lunches. • Transport seniors to LDL (see above) at Joslyn Center in Palm Desert. Picking up clients and taking them to and from the luncheons. (Drivers are welcome to stay and participate.) • Be a JFS Express Driver. Transporting homebound seniors to and from medical or dental visits. • Provide office assistance, Palm Springs. Act as receptionist, make phone calls to confirm appointments, light data entry, and light filing. Volunteers are assigned a day and time (usually 1-2 hours a week). • Help at special events, such as fundraisers. Tasks include staffing registration, selling raffle tickets, and serving as an usher. JFS sends an email request when volunteers are needed. Call Kraig Johnson, 760-325-4088. www.jfsdesert.org Office: 409 Farrell Drive, Suite C-208, Palm Springs.

Pet of the Week “Pet Rescue”
Terrier - Young, Female Hi, my name is Lucy. I’m a female Terrier mix who’s about 6 years old. I was found wandering the streets of Coachella and I was so matted from lack of care. My darkish-gray coat had to be shaved because I was so bad. I keep hearing that I’ll be so pretty again when my fur grows back. That makes me happy, but I’m more happy that I’m safe and well cared for at Pet Rescue. I was so shy and scared when I was first brought in that I cowered in a corner; but because of all the attention and love I’ve been receiving, I broke out of my shell! Don’t I look happy in my picture? And, my tail has started wagging again after being silent for a long time. I’m a very sweet lady and I love giving kisses when I’m petted or cuddled. I
