BY TAMMYE MCDUFF
Dressing up and going trick-or-treat- ing is the next best holiday for children other than Christmas morning, but if a child is in the hospital, it can be a very sad day. That is why Fountain Valley Regional Pediatric Department does Halloween in a big way. Children and families were allowed to dress in costume and walk the hall- ways of the hospital that were lined with all types of characters passing out treats, toys, pencils, gift cards and even bits of ‘healthy’ candy. This year the theme for Halloween was ‘Toy Story’, with over 300 nursing staff dressing up in every character from the best animated film in history. Hallways and hospital rooms were filled with Woody the Cowboy, Jessie the Cowgirl, Buzz Lightyear, Mr. Potato Head, Squeeze Toy Aliens and PEDIATRIC STAFF and patients wish everyone at the Happy Halloween event at Fountain Valley Regional Hospital. Children even Rex the dinosaur [actually three] staying at the hospital with their families were allowed to dress in costume and walk the hallways of the hospital that were lined making an appearance. with all types of characters (FVRH employees) passing out treats, Azita Pournathmeh, Director of Maternal Child Services was pretty in pink, dressed as tour guide Barbie, she 12 years later.

Rio Hondo College will receive additional state revenue over and above a cost-of- living adjustment, which is more than what the College received under the previous funding formula. To illustrate the College’s fiscal prudence, the Board of Trustees’
Oct. 10, 2018 agenda lists $2.7 million in General Fund expenditures for supplies and operations, excluding salaries and benefits. • Lifetime medical benefits: As of June 30, 2018, Rio Hondo College has met all unfunded liabilities for providing lifetime medical benefits to retirees and to an allowed dependent. At present, the College has $50 million in an irrevocable trust for the lifetime benefits. This further illustrates the District’s outstanding fiscal management in being able to provide for current and future retirees. • Chancellor’s Office recognizes career programs: Rio Hondo College, among other accolades, has received a Gold Star, Silver Star and seven Bronze Stars from the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office for programs that advance social mobility for students. The Strong Workforce Stars honors gave special recognition to the College’s extraordinary nursing and automobile technol- ogy programs. These performance factors would be a cause to celebrate at any time. But they are especially significant in these days, when about half our students struggle with food insecurity, when housing continues to challenge many families and when so many of our students need an extra hand to meet the rigors of our higher education standards. ROOF REPAIR Rio Hondo College has stepped up to help its students on every front. We of- fer a host of services for students, including a campus-based food pantry.
