Aspire Indiana Health to expand Noblesville office, renovate space

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Aspire Indiana Health aims to provide health care for the entire family, and with a $6.9 million facility expansion GROWTH under way, it expects to be better positioned to accomplish that task.

Aspire is a Federally Qualified Health Center that provides primary care, behavioral health services, substance-use disorder services and mental health services.

“We also provide social services, such as housing, employment, financial and legal assistance,” Aspire Indiana Health President and CEO Barbara Scott said. “We do all of those things for the residents of Hamilton County.”

Aspire recently broke ground on an expansion to its Noblesville office at 17840 Cumberland Rd. “The Noblesville office is our fastest-growing, largest operation in our entire region, and we serve Boone, Hamilton, Madison and Marion counties,” Scott said. “Because of that volume growth and our integrated model, we just needed more space.”

Aspire also has an office in Carmel at 697 Pro-Med Lane.

The expansion will double the office’s 15,000-square-foot footprint, and the project includes upgrades to the existing building.

“In the new space, that’s going to be primarily our primary care space, so we will have exam rooms and we also will have what we call consultation rooms, so individuals who are receiving primary care and behavioral health can have a place to go to receive behavioral health services,” Scott said. “In our existing space, we are building out the group rooms. A lot of substance abuse disorder treatment is in that facility, and one of the best ways to provide that treatment is in groups so people going through addiction treatment have peers to hold each other accountable as well as support one another.”

To our valued readers: While Current remains exposed to the financial repercussions of the pandemic, we’re pleased to bring some good news on that front. Beginning with this edition, Current in Fishers will be distributed to 50 percent of the audience every other

(Submitted image)

Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen said with mental health being one of his focuses as mayor, the city is excited to move forward with Aspire.

“Mental health is one of our pillars here in Noblesville and Aspire has been a partner with the city and will continue to be a partner moving forward,” Jensen said. “We look forward to watching Aspire continue to grow in our community and offer vital health and well-being services to our residents.”

The design for the building expansion took two years to complete.

“There are no integrated primary care and behavioral health facilities that are a template for this,” Scott said. “This is an innovative model, and then COVID hit, and we realized many behavioral health services can be done through telehealth. Unfortunately, not all people we serve have their financial and housing needs met, and they just don’t have devices or connectivity to benefit from telehealth, so we actually built telehealth week. We appreciate your patience as we continue our recovery and we’re still proud to state that we still have retained all fulltime staff at the levels of compensation to which they are accustomed.

As we indicated before, exactly when we can return to 100-percent delivery is anyone’s guess, but is something we still

rooms where individuals who do not have access to a device or internet can come to the facility and the provider might be in a different location. So, we actually will have telehealth rooms called technology-assisted therapy rooms.”

Aspire Indiana Health broke ground on the expansion last month. Construction is expected to be complete in spring 2022.

Scott said Aspire Indiana Health is open to anyone.

“We serve all walks of life,” she said. “So, we do serve individuals who have commercial insurance and are working, but we also serve individuals who may be unemployed who do not have insurance. We have a sliding scale fee, so we charge what people can afford all the way down to if they are unable to pay. The other thing we are able to do with individuals is connect them to resources and benefits.”

Lifelong construction worker finds relief from severe leg pain through vein procedure Credits care team at Ascension St. Vincent for going ‘out of their way’ to answer his questions and concerns Bruce Brosius began noticing varicose veins in his legs about 10 years ago. But he said it wasn’t until recently that they started to cause him severe pain.

His wife encouraged him to seek care. Bruce said an ultrasound at Ascension St. Vincent detected clotting in both of his legs.

“The clotting was causing me a great deal of pain and swelling,” said Bruce. “The clot was probably the size of a nickel in the side of my right leg, near my knee. It was hard to the touch and very tender.”

Bruce said he believes several factors may have led to the varicose veins in his legs, including being a reformed smoker, his genetics and his demanding construction job.

“I spend a lot of hours standing on my feet, wearing boots and carrying a tool belt,” Bruce said. “I’m doing high-impact work all day long.”

Bruce had a radiofrequency vein ablation procedure on his right leg at Ascension St. Vincent. This minimally invasive procedure uses heat created from radiofrequency waves, delivered through a small catheter, to close off the abnormal superficial veins that cause varicose veins. © Ascension 2021. All rights reserved.

“Vein problems run a broad spectrum, from unsightly cosmetic issues to significant health issues and disability,” said Richard Chitwood, MD, a vascular surgeon at Ascension St. Vincent. “Our team of vascular surgeons listens to each patient to determine the care plan for their particular issues and provide appropriate treatment.”

“If I would have known that this treatment was going to be so painless, and that I was going to meet so many wonderful people involved, I would have done this a long time ago.” — Bruce Brosius Bruce said the procedure was quick and simple, and relieved a large amount of pressure from his leg. He speaks highly of the care he received.

“The team at Ascension St. Vincent has gone out of their way to be respectful of my wishes and to listen to all my questions and concerns,” said Bruce. “I cannot say enough good things about them.”

Bruce Brosius, who has been a construction worker for over 40 years, had a minimally invasive procedure to relieve his leg pain.

Bruce said he will continue to see his care teams at Ascension St. Vincent for follow-up care and that he is looking forward to working and riding his bike without leg pain getting in the way.

“If I would have known that this treatment was going to be so painless, and that I was going to meet so many wonderful people involved, I would have done this a long time ago,” said Bruce.

Vascular specialists at Ascension St. Vincent provide a variety of innovative treatment options for men and women needing vascular care, from injection sclerotherapy for spider veins to minimally invasive venous ablation for varicose veins. When bulging leg veins are uncomfortable or when you want help adjusting vein-related skin discoloration, our care teams are ready to help.

Purdue University student and Hamilton Southeastern High School graduate Colin Patrick spent the 2021 Indiana General Assembly interning with State Rep, Chris Jeter (R-Fishers). “In such a unique time as this, it’s amazing to see how the Indiana General Assembly is responding to COVID-19, but it is also incredible to help and take an active role in that response,” Patrick said.

“The hands-on experience this internship provides is invaluable and will help me take the next step professionally.” Patrick, a Fishers resident, is the son of Brian and Shelli Patrick and is majoring in political science and global studies at Purdue. (Submitted photo)

Q&A with The Tot Spot news@currentinfishers.com The Tot Spot Assistant Director Katie Miller recently participated EDUCATION in a Q&A to answer questions about The Tot Spot Early Education Academy, one of the newest subscribers to an online platform called the Indiana Early Learning Hub in Fishers.

The resource, which is being adopted by facilities across the state, provides users access to operational guidance and facility protocol templates and offers a job board function for staffing assistance as well as discounted inventory from leading vendors.

What are some of the challenges your facility has faced during the pandemic?

KM: Our facility has faced many challenges during the pandemic. As I’m sure many other people would agree, there was a lot of uncertainty regarding best practices, health and safety and the welfare of everyone in our building. We spent a lot of time and effort determining what additional cleaning measures we should take (then implementing them), strengthening our Illness policy, checking on the well-being of families and staff who opted to remain home and isolate,

and looking for and applying to grants to help us cover losses and increased operating costs. Due to the hard work of our entire staff and increased vigilance from our families, we were able to remain open and avoided having to lay off any staff.

What are some of the most impactful benefits offered by the Hub? KM: Some of the benefits of the Hub that I feel will be impactful for my center are the HR resources, such as job descriptions, interview and policy templates, additional training options for my staff, discounts on supplies and the hiring platform, which is specific to our field and candidates within it.

How will the Hub play a role in The Tot Spot’s plans for 2021?

KM: In 2021, I am hoping to revamp both our Operational and Employee Handbooks.

The Hub will be a great resource for sample policies specific to early childhood education. I also believe it will be helpful to our hiring process. Having access to candidates with early childhood backgrounds and early learning professionals will, I hope, improve the quality and experience level of candidates we receive for openings at our center.

COVER STORY

Current in Fishers currentinfishers.com

The Humane Society for Hamilton County’s new state-of-the-art facility is now open animal at the facility. In many cases, people discover that caring for a pet is more difficult than they expected. The HSHC tries to help those people learn how to properly care for their pets to avoid surrenders.

“We go to the ends of the earth to help pet owners keep their animals,” said Williams.

But animals are always arriving. It is the hope of Stevens that all of Hamilton County might visit and see the new place, and maybe discover a new member to the family in the process.

‘THE PET PARADE TO THE NEW HUMANE SOCIETY’

Jonathan Matthes jonathan@youarecurrent.com The Steven J. Cage Foundation Animal Wellness Center, the new home for the Humane Society for Hamilton County at 10501 Hague Rd., is so new that on April 5 it did not yet appear on Google Maps. The facility appeared as a dirtbrown blotch on the satellite picture. But that will soon change.

The HSHC has moved from a 7,000-square-foot facility into a 40,000-square-foot state-of-the-art building that Humane Society for Hamilton County President and CEO, Rebecca Stevens calls one of the top three in the nation — and possibly the best.

One of the new amenities is a kitchen, which features a restaurant-grade dishwasher. Before, volunteers had to wash all the dishes by hand. It also has state-of-the-art ventilation systems in each of the feline kennels that keep the air circulating to reduce the risk of the spread of disease, along with three washers and three dryers that tremendously enhance efficiency.

“Now, it takes just 40 minutes for towels and everything to get dry when before it used to take two runs for anything to dry,” said Mary Roney, a HSHC volunteer from Westfield.

Other features include an expanded reception area, expanded overall capacity and more spacious kennels. Roughly 200 animals call the new facility home, the majority of which are cats. The goal for staff is for the animals’ stays to be brief.

“If it is a long wait (for adoption), at least it’s in a facility that’s state-of-the-art,” said Max Williams, HCHS director of marketing.

Added Stevens, “this place represents, for me, personally, over a decade of blood, sweat and tears trying to create

The dog kennels have two compartments, some even open to the outside for fresh air, but all kennels are more spacious than they were at the previous facility.

a place where animals can go temporarily that celebrates their life and would be a destination for families to want to visit because it’s full of life and happiness.”

When Stevens joined the HSHC 16 years ago, its facility was on the campus of the Hamilton County Jail and had been in Noblesville, at various locations, for 36 years. Stevens often thought about what she would add if she could help design her own animal welfare facility, such as exercise space and a fully developed veterinary clinic with its own operating table and X-ray machine.

The new facility has each of those amenities.

“This place is probably going to be my legacy and why I was put on this earth, to create a brighter future for these animals,” Stevens said. “Not just in Hamilton County, but from outside this county, too.”

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the HSHC has seen a nearly 400 percent increase in adoptions. But there has already been an uptick in surrenders, whereby people drop off an

“One of the vehicles participating in the Pet Parade to the Humane Society for Hamilton County’s new facility.

The journey from the past to the future went “practically perfectly,” according to Max Williams, the director of marketing for the Humane Society of Hamilton County. And it only lasted about half an hour.

Dozens of volunteers, with the help of their official moving partners, Two Men and a Truck, and the Fishers Police Dept., bundled up the sheltered animals from the old facility in Noblesville before heading to the new facility at 10501 Hague Rd. in Fishers.

Noblesville had been the home for the HSHC for 36 years.

“We will certainly miss our Noblesville neighbors,” said Rebecca Stevens, president and CEO of the HSHC. “But I can tell you our team is looking forward to the desperately needed space and resources that will now be available in this remarkable facility that is undoubtedly one of the best in the country.”

ESSAY

HUMOR

Of sound mind and body

Recalling the best spring break ever

Commentary by Terry Anker Why can’t life be easy all the time?

Would it be so difficult to remove our difficulties? For many of us, such questions resonate, especially these days.

Things that used to be very simple can now be abundantly complicated. Do we shake hands anymore? Or, is it best to deploy a fist bump, elbow bang or nod across the room to acknowledge a kind greeting from a friend? Even from those many things we might keep after the pandemic is officially pronounced no longer a threat, most of us are struggling to make sense of the new social order. For some, it may be — or seem — irreversibly life damaging. For many, it will be an inconvenience for a while.

At least we have our health, right?

The cliché, like many others, makes a good point. Anyone who has ever endured a toothache will tell you that all is well until the pain starts. Then, within hours, nothing else matters. Time stops until the anguish is alleviated. Birthday parties, long-planned trips, big presentations at work — all are set aside in the increasing wave of sensory-induced focus. No matter the cost, we’ll do anything to make it relent! Our previous worries have faded into some fistclenched negotiation with God — make the pain recede and we promise to be good and stop tormenting our brother, complaining about the job, or watching too much television news.

Then, modern medicine rescues the tooth — equilibrium is ultimately restored. How long do we hold our promised repentance? With the sharp and shooting agony alleviated, our attention returns to the annoyances of the daily ritual. Is the corporal sufficient? Does mental anguish count? Maybe the saying should be redrafted to proclaim, “At least we have our physical and mental health.”

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“The best way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.”

— WALT DISNEY

POLICIES Letters to the editor: Current Publishing will consider verifiable letters of up to 150 words.

Letters must be thoroughly vetted prior to submission. Current retains the right to reject or return any letter it deems to carry unsubstantiated content. Current also retains the right to edit letters, but not their intent. Send letters to info@youarecurrent.com. Writers must include a hometown and a daytime phone number for verification. Guest columns: The policy for guest columns is the same as the aforementioned, but the allowable length is 240 words.

Guest columns should address the whole of Current’s readership, not simply special-interest groups, and may not in any way contain a commercial message.

I met my husband Doo 31 years ago this month. We were seniors in high school who happened to be spring breaking in the same small island town in the Bahamas. I had a rich best friend with a timeshare, and Doo had a family connection through an uncle. He was tall and skinny, with an impressive mullet (Doo, not the uncle), and for me, at least, it was love at first sight.

Surprisingly, he called a few days after we were back stateside to invite me to visit. We married six years later, and the rest, of course, is Wilson history.

It’s a great story, right? Spring break fling-turned-matrimonial bliss? With our own children now around the age we met, I can’t help but think how crazy it all was. For starters, my parents let me travel internationally to a place where the drinking age was 18, essentially unchaperoned (there was a designated adult there, but she wasn’t either of our mothers and drank more than we did).

And then to fall for a boy who lived only two hours north, and like me, heading to Colorado for college? What were the odds?

I believe it was fate. And so, when I give my annual spring break talk to my students about making good choices, I do in fact spend some time on vacation romance. “Be prepared for one of two eventualities!” I warn. “Heartbreak is the more likely, but you might also land at the spectrum’s other end: Three decades of marriage with a guy whose once enviable mullet has been replaced by an immaculately bald dome.”

Peace out.

Unpleasantly surprised to see me? ®

catering for any honeybaked

occasion this spring!

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie People always act surprised to see me.

Not happy to see me — just surprised. I remember walking home from HUMOR elementary school and coming in the door about 3 p.m. My mother would say, “Are you home already?”

I must have lived closer to school than I thought.

When I was on TV every morning, people who saw me at the supermarket seemed shocked. “Dick Wolfsie! What are you doing here?” I had a list of answers that began with eggs, bread and 2 percent milk.

The staff at my dentist’s office was stunned to see me the other day, but I can’t figure out why. True, I had not been to the dentist in a year because of the COVID-19 pandemic, but I made an appointment in January for late March, assuming I would be vaccinated by then.

Ten minutes after I made that appointment, I got a text asking me to confirm the date.

Then, two weeks ago came a postcard in the mail reminding me that at 2 p.m. on March 31, I was to see Dr. James about my pearly off-whites. Then a few days before the appointment date, I received an email and a text, all not-so-subtle hints to be sure I arrived at my scheduled time. I also got a message on my answering machine that morning: “Hi, this is Dr. James’ office. We are confirming your appointment. Could you call us back and let us know you got this message?”

When I returned the call, I got their an-

swering machine: “Hi, this is Dick Wolfsie and I can’t wait to see all of you again.

Could you please call me back to confirm that you got my message confirming that I will be there? If I don’t hear from you, I’m not going to bother driving all the way over there.”

When they called back, I wasn’t home, so they left a message: “Dick, this is Dr. James’ office.

Yes, we expect you.

Please confirm you got this message, which confirms we received your last message, confirming you will be here. We can’t wait – DICK WOLFSIE to dig away at the plaque.”

This could have gone on indefinitely, so I decided to just show up. I walked into the office, sat down and started flipping through pamphlets featuring horrifying photos of gum disease.

The receptionist finally noticed me: “Oh, if it isn’t Dick Wolfsie! What a nice surprise!

Are you on today’s schedule?”

Right after my dental appointment, I checked my phone and there was already a text message from Dr. James’ office confirming my next appointment … for August.

When I got back home, I opened the front door and there was Mary Ellen: “Oh, it’s you,” she said.

After 42 years, there are no surprises.

A few days before the appointment date, I received an email and a text, all not-so-subtle hints to be sure I arrived at my scheduled time.

Cavin enjoys success as writer, filmmaker

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Quinn Cavin started acting classes with his mother when he was younger, mostly because he was bored with FILM school.

“She’s always been very supportive of my desire to act and create stories,” Cavin said. “She took me to acting class when I was younger. What motivated me to be an actor is I had this idea that actors didn’t need to go to school. I really didn’t like to go to school as a kid, so I tried to convince her to let me stay home and be homeschooled because I didn’t need to go to school because I was going to be an actor.

“Luckily, she encouraged me to stay in school.”

Cavin graduated in the top 10 of his class academically at Mooresville High School. Cavin, who turns 24 April 16, graduated from Wabash College in 2019 with a double major in psychology and theater.

An honors student, he was selected to give one of the two student commencement addresses at Wabash.

Cavin performed in school plays in high school and in college.

“I’m glad I didn’t quit,” Cavin joked about school.

His parents, Curt and Becky Cavin, moved to Noblesville when Quinn started college and now live in Westfield. Curt is a former Indianapolis Star sports writer who now works for IndyCar and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Cavin, who now lives in Burbank, Calif., moved to New York after graduating from college. He quickly found success as he made a short film called “The Dine-andDash Dater” with another Wabash graduate, Ryan Cairns, shortly after moving to New York.

“It’s based on a real-life news article that Ryan had shown me, ‘The dine-anddash dater,’” Cavin said. “This guy had been going on hundreds of dates on dating apps. He’d show up to dinner early, order an entrée and then order another entrée with his date, take another to go and just slip out the back door. All the

women put the pieces together that this was the same guy. The story went on even after we finished the film. But he was finally arrested and charged with the felony with the sheer numbers of bills he’s skipped out on paying.

“I thought the story was a funny real-life thing and we kind of adapted that to a fun movie to make.”

Cavin wrote and directed the film with Cairns. Cavin’s girlfriend, Mafalda Pinto Correia, from Portugal, portrays the main character since the story is told from the perspective of the girl who is left from dinner. They set up a sting to catch him.

While in college, Cavin took a semester off, from January to July in 2018, to study in New York City, winning a scholarship to study at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute. He met several actors, including his girlfriend, who he used for the film. They were in an acting class together.

The short film was completed at the end of 2019 and won the Best of Fest at the 2020 Strasberg Film Festival in February 2020. It was nominated in several categories.

“It was in a handful of virtual festivals,” Cavin said.

Cavin said because of the short film success, they decided to produce a series called “CherryBomb,” with Corriera as the lead and co-creator.

“We took the core characters that are in ‘The Dine-and-Dash Dater,’ minus the guy doing the dining and dashing,” Cavin said. “We took the tone of the film and adapted it to be a TV show. The story is about entrepreneurialism and the experience of finding your way in the world as a young adult.”

The six episodes, which were filmed during the summer of 2020, are about 25 minutes each.

“There were obstacles filming in New York during the pandemic,” Cavin said. “It was an ambitious thing for us to do and none of us were sure when we were shooting the first episode that we would make it all the way to six episodes because of the time, energy and money it takes to produce even one of them.”

The series is in post-production, and Cavin hopes to find a streaming home later this year.

Cavin recently took a job as a writer and production coordinator at Echobend Pictures.

Juniper on Main

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 110 E. Main St., Carmel What to get: Charleston-style shrimp and grits Price: $17 or $23, depending on size.

Anna’s take: After visiting Juniper on Main for a food review, it is now my favorite restaurant. Like, top restaurant for me, ever.

The little building is on Carmel’s charming Main Street, and the inside is adorable and quaint. The outdoor seating, with the twinkle lights and a soft breeze, makes you feel like you’re on vacation, and the coastal fare enhances the feeling. I sampled several items, all of which blew me away. To start, I tried a sampler platter of the appetizers (which is not on the menu but was made just for me). I tried the fried green tomatoes, which were deliciously crisp on the outside and served with a side of lemon aioli, spiced green tomato jam (reminded me of apple butter) and a bed of arugula. Typically, four to five tomatoes are served per order for $11. I also tried the cornbread basket, which is a warm portion of cornbread served with a delicious sweet butter and a savory pimento cheese spread. Four hunks of cornbread are served per order for $8.50.

The Low Country Crab Cakes were my favorite appetizer. They are two crab cakes the size of tennis balls with a side of lemon aioli and arugula for $16. The flight of deviled eggs is very fun — each egg is different and chef’s choice. The two I tried had smoked sausage and a Coca-Cola barbecue on one and salmon and dill on the other. Five are usually served per order for $10.

Clockwise, from top left, appetizer platter with fried green tomatoes, deviled eggs, crab cake and cornbread; grilled salmon with chili lime butter; Forsyth fig salad and Charleston-style shrimp and grits. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

For the main course, the Forsyth fig salad ($16) was bright, tart and sweet with a sweet tea-brined chicken, goat cheese and honey fritters, and an array of fruit and nuts with a side of house-made rosemary fig balsamic dressing. The Charleston-style shrimp and grits ($17 for the lunch portion, $23 for the dinner portion) was a rich bowl full of jumbo shrimp, smoked sausage, caramelized onions and peppers atop a mound of heirloom cheese grits and served in a velvety cream sherry sauce topped with a fried egg. Another favorite main course was the grilled salmon with chili lime butter ($23), served atop a bed of coconut rice with citrus black beans, sweet plantains, asparagus, pickled red onion and cilantro.

To top it off, I had a slice of the hummingbird cake, which I urge you to order, it was so good, and a key lime tart with layers of sponge cake, which was bright and refreshing. Since I write this column every week, I rarely ask for carryout boxes to take leftovers home, but you better believe I asked this time. I was incredibly impressed, to the point that I called my mom as I left the restaurant and told her that we would have to return together and pretend we were on a cruise while dining there.

Germany’s Kiel Canal is the world’s busiest artificial waterway, accommodating more ships than the Suez and TRAVEL Panama Canals combined.

The waters north of Germany are divided into the North and Baltic seas by the Jutland Peninsula, jutting about 270 miles into those waters. Denmark occupies the northern three quarters of the peninsula and the German state of Schleswig-Holstein occupies the southern quarter.

In 1871, Schleswig-Holstein became part of the German Empire, ruled by Kaiser (Emperor) Wilhelm I. With Germany now united, it became important that German commercial and military vessels could go between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea without going around Denmark. As a result, the German government decided to construct a canal near the base of the Jutland Peninsula, running southwest from Kiel to Brunsbüttel, with locks at both ends.

Construction of the canal began in 1887, with 9,000 workers moving 100 million cubic yards of dirt. In 1895, Kaiser Wilhelm II officially opened the 61-mile-long canal, 10 miles

longer than the Panama Canal, and named it the Kaiser Wilhelm Kanal in honor of his grandfather. Using the canal instead of going around the Jutland Peninsula cut the travel distance of ships going between the North Sea and the Baltic Sea by about 450 nautical miles. Between 1907 and 1914, Germany enlarged the canal to accommodate its largest battleships.

Although the Treaty of Versailles opened the canal to international shipping, Adolf Hitler closed it in 1936. The canal was reopened after World War II and renamed the Kiel Canal. The canal is spanned by 11 fixed bridges, each providing at least 138 feet of clearance. The canal can accommodate ships as long as 772 feet and as wide as 106 feet, dimensions excluding the largest container and cruise ships. Despite the limitations, up to 130 ships travel through the Kiel Canal each day.

Noblesville’s most magical event is back: Welcome To Fairyville is April 21-24, with outdoor opportunities for lovers of whimsy of all ages!
