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.
When?
• After using the bathroom
• Before, during, and after preparing food
• Before eating food
• Before and after caring for someone at home
who is sick with vomiting or diarrhea
• After changing diapers or cleaning up a child
who has used the toilet
• After blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing
• After touching an animal, animal feed, or
animal waste
• After handling pet food or pet treats
• After touching garbage

How?

Wet your hands
with clean,
running water
(warm or cold),
turn off the tap,
and apply soap.

Lather your
hands by rubbing
them together
with the soap.
Be sure to lather
the backs of your
hands, between
your fingers, and
under your nails.

Scrub your
hands for at least
20 seconds.
Need a timer?
Hum the “Happy
Birthday” song
from beginning
to end twice.

Rinse hands
well under
clean, running
water.

Dry hands using
a clean towel or
air dry them.

Keeping hands clean
is one of the most
important things we can
do to stop the spread of
germs and stay healthy.

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!
More information is available at the
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.
