The Fremont-based hospital is being recognized for its exemplary work as one of the top 10% of the Collaborative Alliance for Nursing Outcomes (CALNOC) hospitals in reducing hospital-acquired conditions with the Prevention of Hospital Acquired Pressure Ulcers (HAPU) Stage II or greater. Furthermore, Washington was one of only 30 hospitals among 257 across six states to meet or exceed the CALNOC standards. This award is particularly important because, according to Health Research & Ed- ucational Trust, more than 2.5 million patients in U.S. acute-care facilities suffer from pressure ulcers annually with 60,000 dying from pressure ulcer complications.

Healthy Halloween treats

This is an ongoing column in which Dr. Mary Maish answers your health-related questions. Questions for Dr. Maish should be emailed to Ask the Doctor at: [email protected]

Dear Doctor, With Halloween coming soon, can you share some ideas for healthy treats?

Dear Reader, There are a lot of options for healthy Halloween treats: prepackaged apple slices or baby carrots, raisins, bags of pumpkin seeds, dried fruit, granola bars, chia seed squeezes, or even frozen grapes make fun treats. Throw in a few toothbrushes into your basket as well! And if you don’t want your little ones eating all the candy, tell them the Switch Witch will come while they’re sleeping to replace the candy with their favorite new toy.

Dear Doctor, My husband is diabetic and loves to eat the candy that our grandchildren bring home. Should I be concerned?

Dear Reader, Concentrated sugars found in candy are especially unhealthy for a diabetic. Insulin is needed to carry the sugar out of the blood stream and into the tissues and without it the sugar stays and damages organs. It is important that everyone minimize their candy consumption, but this is especially true for a diabetic. Maybe you could try the Switch Witch on your husband! (see above)

An important portal to the City of Hayward celebrated its new “face” greeting travelers entering the city via the Hayward Executive Airport. On the planning books since 2002, the Hayward Airport Master Plan called for “a modern and more welcoming facility for based and transient pilots.” Moving from confined quarters shared with the Federal Aviation Administra- tion in the control tower, the new facility features offices, a police substation, meeting room, pilot lounge and flight planning room. The goal, to present a friendly and architecturally appealing appearance, is achieved through a design that suggests an aircraft wing and illuminated walk- ways in the evening. Another important aspect is the “green” building elements to increase efficiency using regional and recycled materials. In celebration of the new administration building, a ribbon cutting ceremony by Hayward Mayor Barbara Halliday, Air- port Manager Douglas McNeeley and City and Airport officials was held at a luncheon for pilots and tenants of the airport on October 9th.

Daly appointed president of DeVry University Fremont campus

SUBMITTED BY COLLEEN COORS

On October 6, DeVry University announced the appointment of Pamela Daly as president of the Fre- mont campus in California. Daly will manage operations, admissions and career advising at the Fremont campus and, as metro president, will over- see operations at the university’s Daly City, Oakland and San Jose locations (known collectively as the San Francisco Bay Metro). Daly brings more than 20 years of higher education experience to the role, joining DeVry Univer- sity in May 2008 as the president of the San Diego campus. Since then, Daly has been committed to student service excellence. Her skills and attention toward the development of a high-performing team resulted in collaboration focused on student success and graduation. “DeVry University and our students in the San Francisco Bay Metro will benefit greatly from Pam’s vision, leadership and commitment to student success,” said Robert Paul, president of DeVry Univer- sity. “Her operations experience, coupled with her work in admissions and student lending, brings great value and experience to the role of San Fran- cisco Bay Area metro president.” Diego and her master’s degree in counseling psy- Daly earned her bachelor’s degree in counseling chology from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va. psychology from Christian Heritage College in San For more information visit, www.devry.edu Burn curtailment Report: Amazon to open resource guide brick-and-mortar store SUBMITTED BY AP WIRE SERVICE up.

The delicate and airy, fern-like foliage adds an interesting texture to the landscape. Given a few more days and a few more dollars, something can be done about a suffering lawn or bare dirt in the front yard. The magic word is “mulch.” A wide variety of organic mulches available at a local nursery or home improvement store can help bring a dreary yard back to vi- brant life. Trying to cover an entire front yard one sack at a time can be costly and time consuming. Buying the material in bulk quantities is more economical, especially if areas are greater than a couple of hundred square feet. If dealing with bulk delivery, check the delivery charge and size of the truck. The delivery charge will be the same, whether the truck is fully loaded or not. For example, if the dealer uses a 10 cubic yard truck, it makes more sense to order 10 cubic yards of material, than a partial load, such as 8 cubic yards. The cost is not much greater. Those extra couple of cubic yards always seems to come in handy.

The Fremont Education Foundation (FEF) and Lam Research are excited to celebrate the 10th Annual Run for Education on Sunday, October 26. This charity event has raised over $125,000 for the Guy Emanuele Sports Fund (GESF). The event has grown so big that the organizers had to move its location. This year’s Run will start at Niles Elementary School in Fremont, highlighting one of Fremont’s oldest local schools and historic districts. The 5k and 10k courses will take the runners through the serene Niles Community Park to scenic Alameda Creek trails and back while the Kids one-quarter mile and one-half mile take place on school grounds. This year also marks 10 years of the Fremont Unified School District (FUSD) Elementary School Challenge. Every year the Challenge encourages local students, administrators, teachers, and parents to participate in the event. Participants are letes and cheerleaders from all five FUSD high schools. There will be an expo area with booths, games, activities, Kids Corral, podium, race photographer and much more. The awards ceremony will take place after all the races for the top three finishers in all age groups and runs. Fleet Feet has once again donated a pair of running shoes for each of the top finishers of the 5k and 10k runners including Masters. The fun starts at 7:30 a.m. Please visit http://www.fre- montrun4education.org/ for more info and to register.

The “Haunted Railroad” is a “spooky” train ride that will appeal to children 12 years of age and under. Billy Bones says, “Since the beginning, this event has been designed so that it is not scary for little children. We want everyone to have fun!” Dates of operation are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights October 17 through 19, and 24 through 26. The train will leave every 30 minutes beginning at 7:00 p.m.; the last train departs at 9:30 p.m. (on Sundays the last train is at 9 p.m.). Tickets are available at the gate on evenings that the Ghost Train is operating—some trains sell out early. Everyone is encouraged to purchase tickets ahead of time at The Book End, 5678 Thornton Avenue in Newark. Prices are $6 for ages 13 and older, and $4 for children 3-12 years old (children under 3 are free). Cash or checks only please. Groups of 10 or more may make reservations by calling (866) 417-7277; please leave a message and someone will get back to you. Please note: All children must be accompanied by an adult, and for safety reasons each child under three years of age must be accompanied by a separate adult. The train is operated by the So- ciety for the Preservation of Carter Railroad Resources (SPCRR) in association with East Bay Regional Park District. Costumes are OK, but no face masks on adults please. This event is the main fundraiser for the SPCRR, which operates The Railroad Museum at Ardenwood. SPCRR is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation that restores and operates antique railroad cars. Many were built in Newark by Carter Bros. in the 19th Century.

Additional cases of Enterovirus D68 infection statewide

SUBMITTED BY ANITA GORE

The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) continues to monitor respiratory disease activity statewide. Outpa- tient reports of respiratory illness are low and within normal levels for this time of year. The proportion of respiratory specimens testing positive for enterovirus/rhinovirus is 20 percent, which is also a normal level for this time of year and decreased from 25-30 percent levels in recent weeks. As of October 9, CDPH has identified enterovirus D68 (EV- D68) infection in a total of 32 patients. The positive specimens came from the following counties: Alameda (5), Contra Costa (1), Los Angeles (4), Orange (3), Riverside (2), San Diego (8), San Francisco (3), Santa Clara (1), Santa Cruz (1), Solano (1), Ventura Assemblymember Bob Wieckowski (D-Fremont) honored local organizations and individuals making a differ- (1), and the cities of Long Beach (1) and Berkeley (1).

CDPH will continue to monitor the circulation of EV-D68 and other viruses. The purpose of CDPH’s surveillance is to monitor the presence of the virus in Califor- nia.
