Operationally Speaking BY: TANYA CAIN, RN CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER “Caution. Construction under way.” This has literally been a true statement for the past few months at IHCRC. I am certain many are wondering exactly what we are doing and how it might affect patient care. Hopefully, I can answer those questions today.

The redesign of our medical clinic will greatly assist with the continuity of patient care. Care teams will be located in what we refer to as a “pod”. Basically, this mean that care teams share a common space allowing them to work more closely together to bring an enhanced level of care.

The care team model is one part of IHCRC’s commitment to the Patient Centered Medical Home model of care.

The patient centered medical home is a team approach to health care. At IHCRC teams consist of 2 IHCRC Spring 2018

a physician(s), sometimes a nurse practitioner or physician assistant, a nurse or medical assistant, and a referral specialist. Often times a dietitian is also included on a care team.

At the same time, refurbishment of the clinic is occurring. Be watching for new flooring and new colors beginning in the remodeled area and eventually expanding throughout the clinic.

Ultimately, the most important member of the care team is the patient. Patients are “empaneled” or assigned to a care team. The same team cares for the patient on every visit. The pod system of care assures that all members of the care team are communicating regularly about the patient’s care and involvement in his or her health care.

We appreciate everyone being patient during the remodel. For our community partners, the loss of meeting space has been difficult. For our patients, just finding medical records has been a challenge. For our staff, many have been displaced in crowded spaces. Thank you all for your understanding.

In addition to enhancing patient centered care, the remodel will also expand our Diagnostic Imaging Department. X-ray, mammography, and ultrasound now will be located in one area of the clinic. The lab will also be expanded to provided increased and easier processing. Other areas of improvement include an expanded scheduling department in the main waiting area and additional exam rooms.

To our donors we say thank you.

Your generosity in supporting our youth and fitness programs allows us to reinvest third party income directly back into the healthcare of our patients. Remodeling to enhance patient centered care is just one of the many ways we continue to provide quality, comprehensive care for Tulsa’s Native American community.

A Boot Scootin’ Good Time

BY: JOHN YOUNG, MARKETING SPECIALIST More than 450 people put on their boots and cowboy hats to spend an evening in the wild wild west.

The party began with a trip to the saloon where 13 premier auction items were on display including an incredible stained glass medicine wheel by our Featured Artist Agitsi Stained Glass.

The doors opened to the ballroom and Lori Fullbright welcomed our guests. Thank you to Griffin Communication for the media sponsorship.

Recognition was given to our Honorary Chairs Terry and Jill Donovan and our Circle of Life Community Partner Tiger Natural Gas for their longstanding commitment to the betterment of our Native Youth.

Then it was time for some line dancing. Allstar Ballroom Dancing led the way with Boot Scootin’ Boogie. After a little dancing it was time for the live auction which featured our best lineup to date with a trip to Jackson Hole Wyoming, a bourbon or tequila tasting courtesy of Parkhill’s South Liquors and Wine, a custom western themed Rustic Cuff set provided by Interior Logistics, and nine other amazing packages. We wrapped up the night with dancing to music by The Rusty Meyers Band, an Oklahoma country music favorite.

There were so many generous donors and sponsors this year, we have chosen to recognize them on the following pages. Thanks to these businesses, individuals, and tribes, we raised nearly $178,000.

We want to give a very special thank you to Public Service Company of Oklahoma for being our Presenting Sponsor. Thank you to Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Tulsa, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma, Meeks Group, Interior Logistics, 4 IHCRC Spring 2018

Janice Edmiston and Ceasar Williams, and Floyd Rogers and Luzana Graff for leading the way in sponsorship.

The Dance of the Two Moons dinner and auction was established 28 years ago as an annual fundraiser to help support the many great programs and services provided to the Native American community. Proceeds from the event support many of IHCRC’s programs and services, including: the annual Restoring Harmony Powwow, Youth Spring Break Camp, Youth Summer Wellness and Cultural Camps, and IHCRC’s Running Strong Run Team.

Did you miss out on the fun this year? Mark your calendars for March 9, 2019. Be sure to stop by our event website www.ihcrc2moons.org and like our Facebook page www.facebook.com/ihcrc2moons.

There are more pictures from the night and you’ll be among the first to have information about next year’s totally rad event (hint).

Engaging Youth in Culture and Traditions

BY: ALY SPEERS, LCSW, DVPI GRANT COORDINATOR/CLINICIAN

Another year, another successful IHCRC spring break camp completed! The belief that time is best invested in our youth was fulfilled during the annual spring break camp hosted by IHCRC. Children participated in three days packed with culture, tradition, and history.

Campers started the week by visiting the Tulsa Zoo and Tulsa Air and Space Museum. The youth explored their favorite exhibits, became environmentally aware, and expanded their curiosity of the outside world, all while meeting the current Oklahoma Academic Standards. Campers also discovered the rich history of aerospace through interactive and engaging exhibits.

Campers then traveled to the heart of Cherokee Nation to visit several historical and sacred sites. The youth were able to visit Oklahoma’s oldest government building: the Cherokee National Supreme Court Museum, discover the history of the Cherokee law and order at the Cherokee National Prison Museum, and relive traditional ways at the Cherokee Heritage Center.

The campers voyaged north to the Wah-Zha-Zhi (Osage) Nation to learn about their rich history and reservation. Campers visited the Wah-Zha-Zhi Cultural Center and participated in an interactive presentation of the historical timeline of the Osage people and their traditions still practiced today.

Campers visited the Pawhuska arbor to learn the extensive history of the three districts; Grayhorse, Hominy, and Pawhuska, learn of the tribe’s In-Lon-Schka dances, and important roles within the committees, such as the drumkeeper. Campers also experienced several educational museums within the Osage territory.

This annual camp provides an opportunity to instill and connect urban youth to culture and traditions. A very special thank you to our gracious and dedicated donors that provide this amazing cultural opportunity for our Native American youth!

Making Nutrition Work for You

BY: ADRIENNE E. R. HEFNER, MS, RDN, LD, CLINICAL DIETITIAN

Nutrition is a funny thing. Everyone has to eat so everyone has a general sense of what nutrition means to them. At the same time, so many of the population is constantly at a roadblock as to what a healthy diet is. Filling our offices, internet, and TVs are the proclamations of those that feel nutrition has let them down. “Recommendations are always changing.” “Eggs are good then they’re bad.” “I can’t keep up.” “I lost weight on this once, but it’s not working now.” “I’ve tried everything!”

The study of nutrition is how your health is affected by what you eat and drink. If you have ever taken the time to write down everything you’ve been eating and then in turn written down how you felt when you were eating it, then in a basic sense you have studied your nutrition. The important next step would be to ask yourself how to use this information. This is a common way nutrition theories are studied. Eat more of this or less of that and see how it affects your weight, your labs, your digestive system. Frustration often sets in when you hear about a study offering a solution to a question you’ve been longing to have answered. You may get started on whatever this new diet superhero is only 14 IHCRC Spring 2018

to find a month later the same source your previous superhero was advertised on is now touting a completely different solution! What’s the right choice? What should you do? Give up?

Anytime you feel like your healthy changes aren’t bearing the fruits you were hoping they would it’s time to take a pause. Not a week long, or a month long pause, just a minute or a few to reflect. Have you stopped to clearly define what it is you are hoping to accomplish? Once you’ve decided on a goal, take time to think about why it is important to you. Now that you have those answers it’s time to figure out what your options are. Yes, options, plural. There are almost always multiple ways to accomplish your nutrition goals and your job is to figure out what the best way for you to do this may be. Find a reliable source such as the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, American Diabetes Association, American Heart Association, or the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. Look for the patient portion of the website and do some research on what the experts say possible solutions are to your problem.

Remember that anyone can post anything on the

internet, so make sure you take time to understand who it is you are getting information from, and get it from multiple sources. Note that often times when a website is selling or recommending specific supplements for your health issue, the website may not be a reliable source. Even better, always check with your doctor and dietitian before making any major diet changes.

Once you feel that you have a direction to go with your new found nutrition insight, make small, manageable lifestyle changes at a time.

This is important for a number of reasons. Most importantly, you are more likely to stay on track with a specific, achievable goal rather than a vague, difficult goal. Outline a game plan of what comes next when you’ve met your first couple of goals.

Reward yourself with something, preferably nonfood related. Or if you still aren’t able to reach your goals, you may need more help.

something a little more. Sometimes it takes an outside expert opinion to point out something you’ve never thought about. Don’t wait until you are fed up and want to give up. Find help from a healthcare provider now.

If at any time in your journey to be healthy you feel like you could benefit from an expert’s guidance, don’t hesitate to reach out. Ask your doctor for a referral to a dietitian near you. In addition to meeting with your healthcare team for a nutrition consult, IHCRC Health Education and Wellness staff now have a Facebook group called “Life on the Beet” that you can join for recipe and workout inspiration at www.facebook.com/groups/ lifeonthebeet.

Why do you need help? If you never change your approach, how will you ever change the result? If you’ve tried diet plan after diet plan and exercise after exercise to no avail, then maybe you need

IHCRC Go Red for Women Luncheon

BY: NANCY O’BANION, HEALTH EDUCATION AND WELLNESS DIRECTOR

Indian Health Care Resource Center celebrated National Heart Month with a Go Red for Women luncheon.

Our special guest speaker, Mashell Sourjohn, discussed risk factors for heart disease and how heart disease is prevalent in Native Americans. Mashell lost both her father and grandmother to heart disease. Along with their passing went a great deal of cultural knowledge yet to be shared with family. Mashell spent several years working for the American Heart Association, promoting heart health for Native people. Now employed with AARP, she empowers families as caregivers to elder parents and family members.

The Health Education and Wellness staff served a delicious heart healthy lunch, consisting of Teriyaki chicken, coleslaw, rice, and a strawberry cheesecake parfait for dessert. As well as heart healthy, this meal was also designed as a diabetic friendly meal.

Heart health is a concern for everyone, because good heart health involves making healthy lifestyle choices.

Here’s some suggestions to improve heart health: • Know your blood pressure. High blood pressure has no symptoms, so it’s important to have it checked regularly. Uncontrolled blood pressure can result in heart disease.

• Diabetes raises the chances of heart disease. Talk to your medical provider about a simple finger stick screening for diabetes.

• Quit smoking.

• Also ask your medical provider about checking your cholesterol and triglycerides. If these are too high, it also increases your risk for heart disease.

• Make healthy food choices. To learn more, as your medical provider for a referral to one of our clinic dietitians.

• Limit alcohol intake to one drink per day.

• Lower your stress level. Find healthy ways to cope with stress. If you need help, please visit our Behavioral Health department or visit with your medical provider.
