2011 LEGISLATIVEWEEK 11 IN REVIEW

Dear Friends:

NEXT STEP IN BUDGET

PROCESS TAKEN

Senate Republicans announced

budget targets this week as part of an

upcoming plan to solve the states

projected budget deficit. The overall

budget spending level is set at rough-

ly $34 billion for the 2012-13 budget,

protecting funding levels for educa-

tion, health and human services andpublic safety. I believe this plan rec-

ognizes the core constitutional

requirements of state government

while also scaling back automatic,

and unnecessary, government growth

and spending.

REWORKING HOW GOVERN-

MENT PROGRAMS ARE PAID

FOR

Lawmakers announced HF681

and SF434, an initiative for perform-

ance pay for state government pro-

grams. The pilot project would focus

on accomplishments for recipients of

state money. By demanding measur-

able results in order to receive fund-

ing, the program would ensure that

state government is working for tax-payers. Through the use of appropri-

ation bonds rather than state general

fund spending, it also provides new

private sector investment and

encourages fiscal discipline, trans-

parency and public-private collabora-

tion.

SENATE ACTS TO PROTECT

SAFETY DOGS

A bill that I co-authored unani-

mously passed the Minnesota Senate

that increases penalties for people

who harm or kill police and other

public safety dogs in police actions,

search and rescue, correctional facili-

ties or arson investigations. Under

the bill, killing or causing great bodi-

ly harm to such a dog could prompt a

fine up to $5,000 and restitution costs

up to $25,000. As part of the first K-9

unit in Douglas County, I know first-

hand how important police dogs are

to a police force and to the people

they help and protect.

VETERANS AFFAIRS COMMIS-

SIONER APPROVED

I am proud to say Veterans Affairs

Commissioner Larry Shellito

received unanimous approval on the

Senate floor Thursday. Shellito grad-

uated from Minnesota State

University Moorhead, and spent time

in district 11 as President of the

Alexandria Community and

Technical College. Most recently, he

spent seven years as Adjutant

General of the Minnesota National

Guard, before retiring last year.

Shellito served in Vietnam and spent

37 years in the Minnesota Army

National Guard.

UNEMPLOYMENT EXTENSION

SIGNED

A Senate Republican initiative

passed unanimously which permits

unemployed adult children of busi-

ness owners to collect unemploymentbenefits under the same eligibility

rules as other unemployed employ-

ees.

COAL MORATORIUM SEEKS TO

ENSURE FUTURE POWER

In separate committees in the

Senate and House, lawmakers over-

whelmingly voted this week to allow

the states utilities to buy electricity

made from coal. If the measure

becomes law, it would open the door

for Minnesota companies to sell ener-

gy generated at a new North Dakota

plant. A current state moratorium on

new use of electricity produced by

coal is under court challenge and

sponsors say the restriction puts the

state at an unacceptable risk whenconsidering a reliable supply of elec-

tricity in the future.

COMING UP

Moving forward, Senate commit-

tees will continue to hear bills in a

timely manner in order to meet the

earliest committee deadlines in

recent history. As Chair of the

Environment & Natural Resources

my committee and I will be workingtowards hearing all bills relating to

the budget as well as creating our

budget targets by the aggressive

March 25 deadline.

Committees will also hear bills

that consider Minnesotas health care

spending to comply with federal

health care law, prohibiting certain

cell procedures likened to cloning,

and job training programs.

The Local Government &

Elections Committee will begin

week-long hearings on bills requiring

a photo ID to vote, and the Senate

will hear a bill that proposes an "I'm

not taxed enough already" check-off

on tax returns.

State Senator Bill Ingebrigtsenencourages and appreciates con-

stituent input, and can be reached at

tos, and 1 T. chopped green bell pepper. Mix well and set aside. Sift together 2 c. flour, baking

powder, and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir in 1 c. cheese and

until thickened. Add 1 1/2 c. cheese, 2 T. pimento and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook until cheese has

completely melted. Serve Tuna Wellingtons with cheese sauce poured over them.

Thinking springAfter seeing the weather report for this

week, it got me thinking about spring. There

is always a long list of lakes I was going to try

to get on over the winter but never seem to

find the time to hit them all. But with rising

temps and longer days, ice will start to deteri-

orate and before we know it, open water will

be here and we'll all be mowing the lawn

again.

One thing I always try to find time to do

before all the ice is gone is place a wood duck house or two out each

year. Just my way of trying to give back a little. I know some peo-

ple like to hang them on trees, but I've had better success mount-

ing boxes on a post over open water. Nesting boxes mounted on

trees seem to have a higher probability of being homesteaded by

squirrels or having the eggs raided by raccoons. Some of you might

think I'm crazy for waiting until now to get things done, but the

truth is, the mud on the bottom of the pond is not frozen. A couple

people with a little ambition can use a gas auger to drill a hole and

pound in a few posts on a nice pond in little time at all. I've tried

doing this work out in a boat, and it's ten times the job it is now.

I'm going to keep it short this week, but remember ... Think

spring!

Everyone is going to have to sacrificeTo the editor:

In response to Alan Perishs letter to the editor.

It was obvious Alans perspective was funneled by his support of the political party of his choice. I

ould point out filthy rich Democrat supporters, like George Soros, but that would miss the real or rather

unreal point of Alans letter. What I extracted was class warfare or class envy. I have never understood

his train of thought. It would be better to look inside the person and see what kind of man/woman they

eally are. I do not know the Koch brothers, but when I learned they donated over $600 million to char-

ties, not counting political contributions, I was impressed. Few people will pull out their wallet and sup-

ort with their money what they expect taxpayers to foot the bill for. Public Radio, Public TV, and

Planned Parenthood are just a few that could and should operate on private donations, much likeChristian Radio and Christian TV do.

Expecting the rich to foot the bill for everyone is not only naive, but not fair. First off, most rich peo-

le have established foundations or other shelters so they can protect their wealth so you are not going

o get them anyway. To take 30% from both in the name of taxation would seem more fair. And why

o 50% of potential tax payers pay nothing? A fair tax system would require all to pay something. But

ets take Mr. Perishs position a little further. Lets take ALL of the rich peoples income. Guess what?

We still could not even pay the interest on our national debt!! Our nation has an out of control SPEND-

NG problem. Both parties and decades of irresponsible politicians handling of our money is to blame.

Part of the fix is just what governor Walker and others are forced into, namely cutting spending. It is

ust common sense. Speaking of; Ive never been hired by a poor person, so in my experience, it IS the

eople who have money and make investments that create jobs.

I am thankful for Senator Ingebrigtsen and Representative Franson who are wise enough to hold the

ine on Minnesota State spending. We are in a tough economic spot as a state and as a nation. Everyone

s going to have to sacrifice non-essential projects to get through this and that means some of the pre-

iously untouchable things like Social Security, Medicaid and education.

Sincerely,

Gary Farber, Browerville

The seasons are finally

hanging. Its about time.

ach year the winter season

eems to last longer and

pring comes later. I suppose

f I were an avid skier or

omething, I wouldnt mind a

ong drawn out winter with

everal feet of snow. I have

ried skiing with only mini-

mal success. Some people

would consider it to have beenfailure.

My brother-in-law, Jose,

nd I had been elk hunting in

he mountains of Colorado.

My wife and sons spent their

ime visiting with my sister

nd two nieces not far from a

ki resort while Jose and I

were off in the wilds. The kids

went skiing and became fairly

roficient at it by the time we

eturned from the hunt.

omehow, my sons were able

o convince me to give it a try.

t was one of those, How hard

ould it be? suggestions. We

ad one more day before I hado be back to work so I decided

o go for it.

Lessons were recommend-

d so I signed up. My fellow

classmates ranged from age

four to approximately age six.

As well as being the tallest in

the class, I was the only stu-

dent with a camouflage

Browning hunting coat and

florescent orange stocking

cap. By noon, we were still on

the bunny slope and I knew

we wouldnt ski the mountainanytime soon at the rate we

were learning. I met the fami-

ly for lunch at the ski lodge.

My sons and nieces had spent

the morning skiing miles over

the mountain while I had

skied perhaps fifty feet. I

decided, after lunch, I was

going skiing, and not on the

bunny slope. The kids were all

for it, as was Jose. Jose

always encourages others to

try new things, especially

when hes in a warm place a

safe distance away. My wife

and sister were convinced I

would kill myself, or at least

break something important.

Women always tend to be

overly cautious.

As I rode the lift to the top

of the mountain, I reviewed

the skills I had been taught

and practiced. Id been taught

several things but was only

good at one. I could turn right

really well. For some reason I

could not turn left and that

snowplow thing that was sup-

posed to stop a person only

caused me to flip over my skis,

directly onto my face. The

drag of ones face on the snow

does cause them to stop, so

the result is the same.

At the top of the mountain,

I asked my eldest son which

trail I should take. He said if I

went on the black trails, I

would die. The blue trails

were only moderately diffi-

cult, and I might survive. The

green trails are easy and

make long sweeping arches

from the top to the bottom. I

asked him if any particular

trail arched to the right and

was relieved when he pointedme to one that did. We started

in that direction when he

abruptly turned and tore off

down a black trail.

I had no idea where I was

going, but I was staying on

the green trail. It had to come

out somewhere near the ski

lodge. I noticed people skiing

side to side, first left, then

right to control their speed.

Since I had no left, I could

only point my skis straight

downhill and follow the grace-

ful curve to the right. Even on

a green slope, a person can

work up a considerable

amount of speed. I was proba-

bly doing forty to fifty miles

per hour when I rounded a

curve to find the ski lodge,

several hundred people, and

the ski lift directly in my path.

With screams filling the air

and people grabbing small

children, the crowd parted for

the camouflaged maniac as I

pulled the best right turn I

could muster. I zoomed out of

the crowd and was doing

remarkably well at uphill ski-

ing when my forward progress

was stopped suddenly by one

of those big metal poles that

hold the lift up. One ski trip

was enough. Most outdoors

activities are great, but for

me, skiing is not one of them.

Once is enoughFeinstein Challenge Grant

To the editor:

Allan Shawn Feiinstein is again offering his million to promote ending hunger

in America.

He claims that all donations recieved in March and April by local food shelves

will be matched by the Feinstein foundation. (This is not a dollar for dollar match,

but is based on the amount raised locally, which will be proportionally divided.)

This is a pivotal time of year as it is the only time when matching funds are

available through Minnesota FoodShare and the Feinstein foundation.In 2010 we served 1,318 aduslt, 620 children, 751 households, with 48,089

pounds of food distributed. All indications show the need will be even greater this

year. Please do what you can to assure the continuance of our service to our three

community area.

If we each share even a little, it will help our cause. Your help is very much

appreciated.

Law enhances job creationTo the editor:

On behalf of the 2,300 members of the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce and

businesses across Minnesota, we extend our appreciation to Sen. Bill Ingebrigtsen

for co-authoring a bill to expedite the environmental permitting and review process

in Minnesota while protecting the public health and environment and natural

resources of the state.Thanks to his efforts, HF 1 will implement greater efficiencies and much need-

ed practical changes to the permitting and review process. We also support

Governor Dayton for signing this important piece of bipartisan supported legisla-

tion.

Accelerating and simplifying the environmental review and permitting process

in Minnesota will enhance job creation and economic development throughout the

state.

Thank you, Sen. Ingebrigtsen.

David Olson, President

Minnesota Chamber

Save the Foster Grandparent ProgramTo the editor:

Recently, the United States House of Representatives passed legislation that

eliminates funding for the Corporation for National and Community Service

(CNCS). If the funding bill becomes law these cuts threaten to have a dramaticeffect on the quality of life for local seniors, and all who benefit from their service.

CNCS administers many volunteer service programs, including the Foster

Grandparent Program, the Retired & Senior Volunteer Program, and the Senior

Companion Program (collectively the Senior Corps) as well as AmeriCorps,

VISTAand Learn and Serve America.

As the program director of the Central Minnesota Foster Grandparent

Program, I am writing in support of the dedicated service of more than 200 foster

grandparents throughout Central Minnesota, whose ability to serve our communi-

ties will be at risk if this legislation is enacted.

The Foster Grandparent Program (FGP) is a nation-wide program that connects

older volunteers with opportunities to provide one on one mentoring, nurturing

and support to children with special needs, exceptional needs, or who are academ-

ically, socially or financially disadvantaged. In turn, Foster Grandparent volun-

teers derive significant emotional and health benefits from their service, which can

improve their quality of life and provide them with a strong sense of purpose.

Locally, foster grandparents volunteer in schools, after-school programs and

other community organizations. They provide services at a fraction of the cost itwould be to have a paid staff member in their role. Last year the volunteers in cen-

tral Minnesota mentored over 8,000 students, one-third of whom had special

needs.

Foster Grandparents may serve 15 to 40 hours a week, and receive a small

stipend to defray the cost of volunteering on low-income individuals. Locally, 94%

of our foster grandparents are living at 200% of the poverty level or below. For

many, their modest volunteer stipend ensures that they have enough money to live

on each month. Eliminating the federal funding for CNCS and thus our program

will only create the need to spend big in other ways that we have yet to realize.

Help protect the dedicated work of foster grandparents and other national serv-

ice volunteers by contacting Sen. Franken and Sen. Klobuchar (Capitol switch-

board 202-224-3121). Ask them to pass a Continuing Resolution that restores

funding for CNCS. We cannot afford to lose the cost-effective and critical contribu-

tions of over 1.5 million volunteers nationwide.

By Jim Roberts

The Browerville Boys basketball team opened the Section 5A tournament as the #3 seed and played a home

game against the #6 seed, Menahga Braves.

It took just over two minutes for Seth Christensen to put the Tigers on the board with the first basket of the

game. Then, 20 seconds later, Brent Petermeier dropped in a 3-pointer for a 5 0 start. This would be answered

by a 3-pointer from Menahgas D. Hendrickson just 20 seconds after that.

With eight minutes left in the first half, Browerville was down 14 13. Menahga increased the lead to 22

17 before the Tigers started putting some offense together. Luke May made a 3-pointer to get the Tigers with-

in two and the defense held the Braves to just two points in the last 4:43 while scoring nine to take a 29 to 24

advantage into the locker room at the half.

We were a little slow starting out, and Menahga did a nice job against our press. I was pleased to see us put

29 points on the board by half, however, said Coach Schueller.

The second half started out all Browerville. The Tigers outscored the Braves 9 to 1 for a 13 point lead. Mitch

Heid made three 3-pointers and scored 19 of Browervilles first 24 points. May dropped in another 3-pointer to

give Browerville a 19 point advantage with 10:25 to go.

Christensen, Joey Gaida, and Kyle Petermeier made six free throws in a row to help the Tigers maintain a 16

point lead. Austen Wollenburg and Seth Kellen closed out the scoring with 5 of 6 from the free throw line to give

Browerville a 67 to 51 win over the Braves.

Mitch Heid led all scorers with 23 points. He also pulled down 13 rebounds, had 7 steals, and dished out 6

assists. Seth Christensen scored 12 points to go along with 7 rebounds. Luke May finished with 10 points and

Seth Kellen scored 9 points and had 8 rebounds.

Tigers 55 Upsala 59

The #2 seed, Upsala, put together a better second half to defeat the #3 seed, Browerville, in Section 5A West

playoff action last Saturday night in Wadena.

Upsala opened the game with a 3-pointer from Brandon Welinski. Browerville answered with the next 5

points including a 3-pointer by Brent Petermeier. The score was tied at 7 and again at 11. Mitch Heid hit a 3-

pointer followed by another Welinski basket to make the score 14 -13 with 10:37 remaining.

The Browerville defense then held the Cardinals scoreless over the next four and a half minutes of play to

open up a 7 point advantage. Upsala closed the gap to four before a Joey Gaida 3-pointer brought the lead back

to seven at 30 to 23 and forced Upsala to take a timeout. The half time score read 33 27 in favor of the Tigers.

The second half started off slow for the Tigers who did not score for the first 5:15. Seth Christensen then scored

a pair of baskets; the second one a 3 point play with a successful free throw attempt. This gave a Browerville 38

to 31 lead. Over the next four minutes Browerville went scoreless and Upsala came back to tie the game at 38.

The Cardinals would go on to take their first lead since the opening basket of the game on a Brent Herzog bas-ket. Browerville tied it back up at 40 on another Christensen basket.

Upsala went on to score the next 6 points before Austen Wollenburg connected on a 3-pointer to bring the

Tigers within 3. Several turnovers and some missed free throws by the Tigers allowed the Cardinals to build

their lead to 9 points at 52 43. Seth Kellen connected on a 3-pointer to make it 52 46 and hit another one

with :14 remaining to make it 58 54. Herzog made one free throw for a 5 point lead and Heid sank one free

throw for the final score of Upsala 59, Browerville 55.

Coach Schueller commented on the second half: [Upsala] took us out of our offense in the second half. I

thought our defense did well, but they broke us down with penetration and got too many easy baskets.

The Tigers finished the year with a 21 5 record and as Co-Champions of the Prairie Conference with Upsala.

Very proud of this team. Very proud of how they handled themselves and accepted their roles. It was a very good,

and fun year, to be a part of, added Coach Schueller.

Seth Christensen ended with 16 points and 10 rebounds. Mitch Heid had 12 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 steals.

Seth Kellen ended with 9 points and 5 rebounds.

DNR achieves recertification

of nearly 5 million acresThe Minnesota Department of

atural Resources (DNR) success-

lly recertified its resource man-

gement of 4.96 million acres of

ate-administered forestlands to

wo independent, third-party forest

anagement certification systems.hose third parties are The

ustainable Forestry Initiative

FI) and the Forest Stewardship

ouncil (FSC).

Forest certification is a system

at recognizes and rewards sus-

inable forest management,

xplained DNR Division of

orestry Director Dave Epperly.

Certification of Minnesota

restlands has led to a sustainable

upply of forest products and serv-

es from healthy, diverse and pro-

uctive ecosystems. It also lead to

ntinuous improvement in forest

anagement practices, better

terdisciplinary coordination andmmunication among resource

anagers and stakeholders, and

creased global competitiveness

r consumers of forest products

om certified state forestlands.

Forest certification of state-

dministered forestlands involves

veral elements. These include a

oluntary commitment to adhere to

dependently established stan-

ards for responsible forest man-

gement; participate in annual

udits performed by external audi-

rs; and address any non-confor-

ances or compliance gaps identi-

ed during audits.

Epperly said the DNR's out-

anding achievement in recertify-

g almost five million acres to both

the SFI and FSC Forest

Management Standard is a testa-

ment to the departments commit-

ment and dedication to responsi-

ble, sustainable forest manage-

ment. Currently the DNR adminis-

ters the largest single FSC forestmanagement certificate in the

nation.

We should all be proud of the

commitment and achievements the

DNR and other certified land man-

agers have made towards sustain-

able forestry, Epperly said.

In addition to the 4.84 million

acres of state administered lands

certified since 2005, DNR success-

fully expanded its dual forest man-

agement certificates by approxi-

mately 104,000 acres. This

includes 81,673 acres of Land

Utilization Project (LUP) Lands in

northwestern Minnesota and

22,600 acres of trails-administeredlands in northeastern Minnesota.

FSC has long recognized the

DNR for its leadership and com-

mitment to sustainable forestry.

DNR first obtained FSC certifica-

tion in 1997 for its forestlands

located in Aitkin County.

Along with the county-adminis-

tered lands, these were the first

public forestlands to be certified in

the United States, thereby estab-

lishing the DNR as a national

leader in Forest Certification and

in protecting and managing natu-

ral lands.

Effective dates of DNR's

renewed certificates are Dec. 31,

2010 Dec. 31, 2015.

When it comes right down to it, the

art of hospice is all about living. While

spice is designed for those whose life is

mited by an illness or condition, hospice

ly is about making the most of each and

ery moment that we have. Hospice

ows for a higher quality of living both for

e patient and their loved ones.

A study was released last August in the

ew England Journal of Medicine stating

at patients with earlier referral to a hos-ce program may receive care that results

better management of symptoms, help-

g to stabilize their condition and prolong

eir survival. This affirmed the findings of

earlier study in 2007 that looked at

edicare beneficiaries with some of the

ost common terminal diagnoses.

atients who received hospice services

ed on average 29 days longer than those

ho did not receive hospice care. This

udy, published in the

ww.nhpco.org/files/public/JPSM/march-

07-article.pdf"Journal of Pain and

ymptom Management (March 2007)

oked at 4,493 terminally ill patients with

her congestive heart failure or cancer of

e breast, colon, lung, pancreas, orostate.

While hospice is not about prolonging

shortening life, it is encouraging to know

at the quality and quantity of life can be

pacted when hospice is brought in as

on as possible. We run into problems

hen people come to us so late in their ill-

ss that there is only a fraction of our

tential assistance that is realized.

A Harvard Medical School study

oston Globe, May 26, 2006) found many

rminally ill patients and their doctors put

conversations about end-of-life choices.

nly about half of the 1,517 patients with

etastasized lung cancer in the survey

d discussed hospice care with their

ysician or healthcare provider within fourseven months of their diagnosis. The

st majority of such patients do not sur-

ve two years.

So what are we to do? Here are a few

swers to many of the questions we

ceive:

When is the right time to call hospice?

gns to look for include: if the patient has

creased pain, breathing distress or other

mptoms; repeated hospitalizations or

ps to the Emergency Room; a failure to

ounce back after medical setbacks, an

crease in needing assistance for walking,

ting, bathing, dressing, etc. By calling

rly, we can answer questions and assist

soon as possible rather than later.

When is someone appropriate for hos-ce? What should be considered as

tient and family needs? A physician

termines when a patient is hospice

propriate, but it doesnt hurt to inquire

hen that time would be. Having a prog-

sis of six months or less if the illness fol-

ws its normal course follows the hospice

idelines. Planning often allows for more

oices and control over how things can

fold. When a patient becomes uncom-

rtable, or requires more care than the

mily or in-home caregiver can provide,

s time to call. A caregiver should not wait

til they are exhausted to ask for help. We

n bring respite care, including compas-

onate volunteers to be there, when a

ved one requires a much needed break.Isnt hospice just for people with can-

r? The simple answer is no. On average

wer than half of our patients at Lakeland

ospice & Home Care have cancer. Most

ve heart, lung or other end-stage illness-

, including dementia, ALS (Lou Gehrigs)

d a host of other conditions. Anyone with

y illness at any age can be cared for by

spice. The service area of Lakeland

ospice & Home Care is Otter Tail county

d the surrounding 14 counties. No one

turned away for inability to pay for hos-

ce services. Medicare, Medicaid and

ost private insurance cover hospice

expenses.

What services can hospice provide?

Lakeland Hospice provides equipment

(beds, walkers, wheelchairs, etc.), medica-

tions and a team of professionals brought

right to a patients door. Social workers,

hospice aides, volunteers, nurses and

even a chaplain if requested, are available

to work with patients and their families.

How long can a person be on hospice?

A person stays on hospice for as long ashe or she is hospice appropriate. Patients

are evaluated on a periodic basis and as

long as they continue to meet the guide-

lines, they are re-certified for hospice cov-

erage for as long as they live.

Where can hospice provide services?

Lakeland Hospice provides services any-

where a person lives whether a private

home, apartment, assisted living center or

even nursing home. Hospice comes right

to the patient. We are also very fortunate

here in the Fergus Falls area to have the

Lakeland Hospice House. One of only 15

licensed Hospice Houses in the state of

Minnesota, patients receive 24/7 compas-

sionate end-of-life care. Patients are able

to stay at the Hospice House for respitecare while caregivers receive a break. In

addition, patients on hospice can stay at

the Hospice House as long as necessary if

they so choose. Our average stay for our

first year of operation was 17 days. Unlike

area palliative care units, there is no maxi-

mum limit to how long a patient can be

there.

What is anticipatory grief? How can

hospice help with it? Anticipatory grief is

that grief which is felt by a loved one who

is coping with the knowledge that their

loved ones life may be shortened. This is

a difficult process for everyone, but care-

givers shoulder an extra burden. They try

to remain strong for the patient, not letting

on the pain and anguish that can be justbelow the surface emotions. Trying to

make the most of the time that is left with-

out dealing openly with the grief can be

especially difficult. Lakeland Hospice and

Home Care has a new grief support group

just for caregivers of those who have a life-

threatening illness. Go to lakelandhospice-

homecare.org for more information.

What happens after a patient passes

away on hospice? Unlike most other

healthcare agencies, hospice provides a

bereavement benefit for families who have

had a loved one who has passed away on

hospice. For up to 13 months after the

death of a loved one, Lakeland Hospices

bereavement program stays in touch with

the family through notes, calls and evenpersonal visits when requested. Grief

Support groups are also open to anyone in

the community who has suffered the loss

of a loved one regardless if their loved one

received hospice care or not. Grief Support

groups exist throughout Otter Tail county

and the neighboring service area.

As found on The National Hospice and

Palliative Care Organization (NHPCO)

Updater website, Theres an inaccurate

perception among the American public that

hospice means youve given up, said J.

Donald Schumacher, president and CEO

of the National Hospice and Palliative Care

Organization. Those of us who have

worked in the field have seen firsthand how

hospice and palliative care can improvethe quality of and indeed prolong the lives

of people receiving care.

Schumacher goes on to state that, The

time to learn about these services is before

a person is in a medical crisis. Patients and

families must learn about these options of

care as soon as possible,

Lakeland Hospice & Home Care can be

reached by calling (218) 998-1400 or toll

free (888) 820-7885. Staff is available on

call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Hospice is about living

he best life possible
