Arnold and Gershner honored as first DVB Hall of Fame inductees The City of DeValls Bluff held its first DeValls Bluff Hall of Fame Banquet on Saturday, March 25.

A crowd of approximately 260 friends, family members, former DVB students, and former DVB faculty members attended the event, which was held in the old DeValls Bluff Scrapper Gymnasium, now owned

by Allen Childress.

The gym was decorated in the Scrapper colors of purple and gold, and the attendees were treated to a free catfish and barbeque dinner.

Honorees for the evening were Bill Arnold, a long-time counselor for DeValls Bluff High School, and Larry Gershner, a former Superintendent of the DeValls School District.

Gershner now resides in Rogers, Arkansas. Arnold is a long-time citizen of DeValls Bluff, and both he and his wife Sharon are actively involved in improving the community of DeValls Bluff through The Arnold Foundation, founded by their son, Curtis Arnold.

The evening’s activities were hosted by emcee Brandon Smith, a graduate of DeValls Bluff High School (DVBHS). Former DeValls Bluff School District high school principal and superintendent Charles Eads of Carlisle and former DVBHS Social Studies teacher Helen Holloway of DeValls Bluff were there to tell those in attendance about the accomplishments and dedication of the two hon-

orees.

Both Arnold and Gershner were presented with plaques, which will be displayed in the old gym along side other DVBHS memoribilia.

Gershner’s “temporary” plaque will be replaced with the real one as soon as it arrives.

Entertainment for the evening was provided by another DVB graduate, Allan Broussard, and his band.

The organizers of the banquet were very pleased with the large turnout, and thank Allen Childress and other volunteers for their hard work and generosity that helped make the night possible. The group plans to make the banquet an annual event.

By Pam Padget Doing a quick patient assessment is extremely important when encountering a patient with an impaled object, especially if it happens to be impaled in the chest.

Many of our vital organs lie within the chest cavity making assessment of the chest a priority.

Assessing the respiratory efforts and loss of blood is the most critical.

Respiratory effort is pretty easy to assess as you look at the patient, “are they breathing” is the most important question.

This can be done quickly, however, blood loss can the seen coming from the wound or not if the bleeding is internal.

Low blood pressure is an important sign, but, that may not happen until late in patient care. By then the patient may be in shock and it may be too late to save the patient from death.

If you have contacted 911 and they are responding, this quick assessment may just save a life.

Once EMS arrives on scene they need not waste time on scene and treatment should be done while in route to the ER. There is not a lot a paramedic can do, this patient needs immediate surgery and hospital care. Once in the ambulance the patient will be placed on oxygen and monitored for any changes. An EKG will be placed on the patient to enable the paramedic to monitor the blood pressure and a pulse oxygen monitoring the oxygen in the blood.

Two large bore IVs will be started, hopefully, with large bore IV catheters, should the patient need blood. Medication may be given for pain control.

Rechecking all vital signs will continue in route the trauma center. One of the most important treatment is to NOT remove the object. The impaled object must be stabilized in the position found.

Impaled objects are almost never removed in the ambulance or ER. When the patient arrives at surgery the surgeons will remove it. The reasoning behind this thought, if the vessels are compressed and the patient is in surgery there is a better chance that the surgeon will be able to repair it. X-rays and/or CTs or MRIs will be completed to make sure when the object is removed it does not do more damage.

Often times the object will occlude the vein or artery, so it is best to leave the object in place until the patient reaches surgery.

Once it is removed the patient may bleed out in a matter of seconds, what better place to be than in surgery.

Patients with impaled object injuries are placed in two categories, simple or complex.

Simple objects are knives, arrows, or something simpler.

Complex injuries are when the patient is pinned or trapped by the impaling object.

Something may pierce the car or anything and pin the patient.

Simple

injuries is rather easy to manage and don’t interfere with packaging the patient but the object may have to be cut off so the patient will fit in the ambulance. An example of a complex is when a “fence post” or similar object comes through the windshield and pins the patient to the seat. Often this involves cutting the object off with considerable pain to the patient in order to place the patient in the ambulance.

If the object has pierced the heart the “rule of law” is when the heart fails to fill sufficiently its ability to pump is impaired. The result of this action is shock that may lead to rapid death. This is true with the chest and lungs.

If difficulty breathing is a concern, remember your ABCs, airway (secure it), breathing (is the patient moving air chest rise and fall), circulation (is the blood being pumped around the body).

Anytime you encounter a person with an impaled object anywhere in the body a few things to remember, your ABCs (airway, breathing, circulation). Once you have established the ABCs you, time to move on. Is the patient alert to time and place?

Are they bleeding profusely?

If you establish these facts, move on to stabilizing the object. Help will arrive and you need to advise them of everything you have done. Be safe and again take a first aid class, the sooner the better.

Land to be Certified When we craft our state budget, we do so knowing it reflects our priorities.

The House wrapped up this week by passing a budget that devotes nearly half of our revenue to education.

It includes increases in spending for health care, foster care, and our criminal justice system.

The $5.49 billion budget includes an increase of $163 million (3.1%) in spending from the current fiscal year.

Of that increase, $112.8 million is directed to the Department of Human Services (DHS). Included in the DHS increase is $75 million directed to match federal Medicaid funding. It also includes a $26 million increase for foster care and $4.5 million is directed to fund the mental health crises stabilization centers which were created in the criminal justice reform measure passed earlier in the session.

In education, the budget directs a $3 million increase for Pre-K funding and $2.4 for computer science courses.

Other increases include funding for the Department of Correction and the Department of Community Correction.

We also passed HB1830 which specifies the distribution of surplus funds, also called the Rainy Day Fund.

The distribution includes: $90 million to Medicaid. ($70 million for Fiscal Year ‘18, $20 million for Fiscal Year ‘19), $10 million to the Department of Correction, $30 million to Arkansas Economic Development Commission for economic development incentives, $60 million for school facilities, and $20 million to help match federal highway grants.

The legislature has already spent $14 million in this fund to assist needs in foster care.

In this session, the General Assembly has cut taxes, reformed our criminal justice system, and opened doors to higher education for more Arkansans.

We have passed legislation to give our military retirees a tax cut and provide our National Guard with a scholarship.

We have strengthened domestic violence laws, implemented regulation and safety measures for the use of medical marijuana, and established programs to spur economic development.

The Governor has signed more than 750 pieces of legislation into law. More bills are now heading to his desk as we wrap up the session.

We will continue to update you during the interim and provide you with more information on the bills that have passed in recent weeks.

1 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife.

2 A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causeth shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.

3 The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD trieth the hearts.

4 A wicked doer giveth heed to false lips; and a liar giveth ear to a naughty tongue.

5 Whoso mocketh the poor reproacheth his Maker: and he that is glad at calamities shall not be unpunished.

6 Children's children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

7 Excellent speech becometh not a fool: much less do lying lips a prince.

8 A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth.

9 He that covereth a transgression seeketh love; but he that repeateth a matter separateth very friends.

10 A reproof entereth more into a wise man than an hundred stripes into a fool.

11 An evil man seeketh only rebellion: therefore a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

12 Let a bear robbed of her whelps meet a man, rather than a fool in his folly.

13 Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

14 The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.

15 He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD. 16 Wherefore is there a price in the hand of a fool to get wisdom, seeing he hath no heart to it?

17 A friend loveth at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

18 A man void of understanding striketh hands, and becometh surety in the presence of his friend.

19 He loveth transgression that loveth strife: and he that exalteth his gate seeketh destruction.

20 He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.

21 He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow:

and the father of a fool hath no joy.

22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

23 A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom to pervert the ways of judgment.

24 Wisdom is before him that hath understanding; but the eyes of a fool are in the ends of the earth.

25 A foolish son is a grief to his father, and bitterness to her that bare him.

26 Also to punish the just is not good, nor to strike princes for equity.

27 He that hath knowledge spareth his words: and a man of understanding is of an excellent spirit.

28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

1 Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom.

2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.

3 When the wicked cometh, then cometh also contempt, and with

ignominy reproach.

4 The words of a man's mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.

5 It is not good to accept the person of the wicked, to overthrow the righteous in judgment.

6 A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for strokes.

7 A fool's mouth is his destruction, and his lips are the snare of his soul.

8 The words of a talebearer are as wounds, and they go down into the innermost parts of the belly.

9 He also that is slothful in his work is brother to him that is a great waster.

10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

11 The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit.

12 Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.

13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him.

14 The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who

can bear?

15 The heart of the prudent getteth knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeketh knowledge.

16 A man's gift maketh room for him, and bringeth him before great men.

17 He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbour cometh and searcheth him.

18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty.

19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle.

20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.

21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD. 23 The poor useth intreaties; but the rich answereth roughly.

24 A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
