Virtual Home Visiting

Have you been thinking about Home Visiting but have concerns

about someone coming to your home due to COVID? No worries!

We can do virtual visits. During this COVID season we are not

meeting in the home or office. We can meet by phone, FaceTime,

Google Duo or the like. When weather permits we can meet

outside if you prefer following all the safety protocols, wearing

masks and staying 6 feet apart.

So who is Home Visiting for?

We serve Siletz families who are expecting a baby or have a baby

under one year of age (continuing till the child is three). Our

Family Spirit curriculum, developed by the John Hopkins Center

for American Indian Health, is evidence based and culturally

sensitive to native families. Some of the aims are to increase

parenting knowledge and skills; promote optimal physical,

cognitive, social/emotional development for children birth to

three years; prepare children for early school success; link

families to community services to address specific needs; and

promote parent’s and children’s life skills and behavioral

outcomes across the life span. Bottom line – we want to help

provide parenting and life skills for you to have a successful and

positive parenting experience.

COVID-19 Vaccines

Vaccines (shots) are one of the tools we

have to fight the COVID-19 pandemic.

To stop this pandemic, we need to use all of our prevention tools. Vaccines are one of the most effective tools to protect

your health and prevent disease. Vaccines work with your body’s natural defenses so your body will be ready to fight

the virus, if you are exposed (also called immunity). Other steps, like wearing a mask that covers your nose and mouth

and staying at least 6 feet away from other people you don’t live with, also help stop the spread of COVID-19.

Studies show that COVID-19 vaccines are very effective at keeping you from getting COVID-19. Experts also think that

getting a COVID-19 vaccine may help keep you from getting seriously ill even if you do get COVID-19. These vaccines

cannot give you the disease itself.

The vaccines are safe. The U.S. vaccine safety system

makes sure that all vaccines are as safe as possible. All

the COVID-19 vaccines that are being used have gone

through the same safety tests and meet the same

standards as any other vaccines produced through the

years. A system in place across the entire country that

allows CDC to watch for safety issues and make sure the

vaccines stay safe.

U.S. Department of

Health and Human Services

Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention

CS322256-A | 02/03/21

Different types of COVID-19 vaccines will be available.

Most of these vaccines are given in two shots, one at

a time and spaced apart. The first shot gets your body

ready. The second shot is given at least three weeks later

to make sure you have full protection. If you are told you

need two shots, make sure that you get both of them. The

vaccines may work in slightly different ways, but all types

of the vaccines will help protect you.

www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/vaccines

CDC | NCIRD | COVID-19 Vaccines

The vaccines may cause side effects in some people, like

sore muscles, feeling tired, or mild fever. These reactions

mean the vaccine is working to help teach your body how

to fight COVID-19 if you are exposed. For most people,

these side effects will last no longer than a day or two.

Having these types of side effects does NOT mean that

you have COVID-19. If you have questions about your

health after your shot, call your doctor, nurse, or clinic. As

with any medicine, it is rare but possible to have a serious

reaction, such as not being able to breathe. It is very

unlikely that this will happen, but if it does, call 911 or go

to the nearest emergency room.

When you get the vaccine, you and your healthcare

worker will both need to wear masks.

CDC recommends that during the pandemic, people wear

a mask that covers their nose and mouth when in contact

with others outside their household, when in healthcare

facilities, and when receiving any vaccine, including a

COVID-19 vaccine.

SOAP

Even after you get your vaccine, you will need to keep wearing a mask that covers

your nose and mouth, washing your hands often, and staying at least 6 feet away from

other people you do not live with. This gives you and others the best protection from

catching the virus. Right now, experts don’t know how long the vaccine will protect

you, so it’s a good idea to continue following the guidelines from CDC and your health

department. We also know not everyone will be able to get vaccinated right away,

so it’s still important to protect yourself and others.

Stop Germs! Wash Your Hands.

March is National

Save Your Vision

Month

Adrienne Crookes, Community Health Advocate

National Save Your Vision Month, by

the American Optometric Association,

raises awareness among the general

public and targets at-risk groups to

remind them of the need for regular,

comprehensive eye examinations to

detect eye health problems, general

health issues, and vision difficulties.

Eye health is intrinsically linked to

overall health. Your eyes are often the

best windows to your health. By

looking into your eyes, your

optometrist can tell a lot about your

general health. For example, did you

know that some systemic and chronic

diseases, especially diabetes, can often

be detected by an optometrist during a

comprehensive eye exam?

Since over 33 percent of people with

diabetes don’t know that they have it,

an eye examination can be the only

clue to detecting this potentially lifethreatening disease. By dilating the

pupil, your optometrist can see inside

your eye using an ophthalmoscope,

which light and magnifies the blood

vessels in your eyes. Changes to these

blood vessels can signify various stages

of diabetic retinopathy. Left

untreated, it can cause blindness. For

those suffering from diabetes without

knowing it, the detection and

treatment of this disease can mean

relief on many levels.

Other eye diseases, like glaucoma, may

cause vision damage and eventually

blindness without the patient ever

experiencing any symptoms. During a

comprehensive eye exam, your

optometrist measures the pressure

within your eye and examines the optic

nerve in the eye, thereby determining

the existence of glaucoma.

This is a good time to go

have your eyes checked!

American Optometric Association website at

E-Cigarette’s/Vape Pens

What are e-cigarettes? E-cigarettes are a form of a Inhalant Delivery Systems (IDS). These devices typically deliver nicotine,

flavorings, and other additives to users via an inhaled aerosol. These devices are referred to by a variety of names, including e-cigs, vape pens, e-hookahs,

Juul, mods, tank systems and other devices that deliver a nicotine aerosol. E-cigarettes are battery-powered devices that heat up liquid into an aerosol that users then inhale. The liquid

usually has nicotine, which comes from tobacco; flavoring; and other additives that are known

to have adverse health affects. E-cigarette products can also be used as a delivery system for

marijuana and other illicit drugs.

What are the health effects of

using e-cigarettes?

Scientists are still learning about

the long-term health effects of e

-cigarettes. Here is what we

know now.

Most e-cigarettes contain nicotine, which has known health effects.

Nicotine is highly addictive.

Nicotine can harm adolescent brain development, which continues into the early to mid20’s.

Nicotine is a health danger to pregnant woman and their developing babies.

Besides nicotine, e-cigarette aerosol can contain substances that harm the body. This includes

cancer-causing chemicals and tiny particles that reach deep into lungs. Harmful substances

found in e-cigarettes include; nicotine, volatile organic compounds, ultrafine particles, cancer

causing chemicals, heavy metals such as nickel, tin and lead, and flavoring such as diacetyl, a

chemical linked to a serious lung disease. It has been found that even though e-cigarettes produce a vapor, that it still causes second-hand exposure for those who are around and inhale. Ecigarettes can also weaken your immune system causing you to be more vulnerable to illnesses

and take longer to recover.

Although e-cigarettes may have less chemicals in them, they still cause the body harm and Individuals who start using e-cigarettes are 4 times more likely to start smoking.

If you are interested it quitting commercial tobacco

products, there are several Nicotine Replacement

Therapy's (NRT’s) available that are proven to help

assist. Here are a few that are Over The Counter

(OTC) that you can pick up from a store at a

cheaper rate than cigarettes. Nicotine patches,

nicotine gum and nicotine lozenges. This is a great

way to reduce your nicotine use without all the

extra harmful chemicals until your ready to quit

for good.

Elk Tag Opportunity

The Tribal Natural Resources Department will once again be offering a limited number

of Landowner Preference (LOP) elk tags to Tribal members for the 2021-2022 hunting season.

As a landowner, the Tribe is eligible to participate in the State’s LOP program. Based on the

number of acres that the Tribe owns, we can get 6 additional antlerless elk tags from the State.

These LOP tags are not related to the Tribe’s Consent Decree tags that we receive each year.

They are based solely on the Tribe being a landowner.

There are a number of important differences between the LOP tags and the Tribe’s

regular tags. These are summarized in the table below.

* Note: If you are drawn for an LOP Tag you are still eligible to apply for and be drawn for a

Tribal tag.

Please note a major difference between the LOP tags and the Tribe’s regular tags is

ONLY the person drawn for the tag can hunt that tag. The tag cannot be given to

someone else to hunt for you. Only Tribal members serious about hunting an LOP

tag personally are eligible to apply.

The drawing for the 6 LOP elk tags will be held during the Natural Resources Committee

Meeting to be held on April 5th at 4:45 PM. Applications are available on the Tribal website, in

the kiosk at the back door of the Tribal Admin building in Siletz, or by calling the number below.

Completed applications must be received by the Natural Resources office by 4:30 PM April 2,

2021. For more information regarding these tags and the differences between the Tribe’s regular

tags and the LOP tags, contact Natural Resources Manager Mike Kennedy at 541-444-8232.
