Murphys, CA...Autism or autism spectrum disorder [ASD] describes a category of complex disorders of brain development. There are varying degrees of difficulty in social interactions, verbal and non-verbal communication, repetitive behavior, and/or restrictive behavior. As you can imagine this disorder is not only a challenge for the individual, but, also for the entire family, extended family, school and/or work peers and educators, the treating professionals, and the community at-large. There are many steps to take to come to terms with the diagnosis and how to handle it. We have talked in a previous blog about what one can expect and how to move forward after receiving the diagnosis. Today, I would like to offer some helpful ways to talk with siblings.

Hospital Foundation Purchases Vein Visualization Technology for Mark Twain Medical Center's Cancer Center
Posted by: thepinetree on 03/13/2018 04:35 PM
San Andreas, CA...Patients at Mark Twain’s Cancer Center are now benefiting from a new piece of technology reducing the likelihood for multiple venipunctures, otherwise known as a needle stick for blood draws or to insert intravenous therapy. The AccuVein, vein illuminator, was purchased by the hospital Foundation for use in the cancer center. “Often chemotherapy treatments can reduce the visualization of peripheral veins making it difficult to locate the vein and successfully insert the IV in one attempt. Vein visualizers use near-infrared (NIR) technology to aid the clinical staff. It is easy and simple to use,” comments Dr. Shiva Signhal, Oncologist at the Cancer Center. “The NIR is also useful for patients with easily collapsible veins, a condition that many non-cancer patients suffer from as well.”
Mark Twain Medical Center Foundation recently purchased the Accuvein for the Cancer Center. The near infrared (NIR) technology reduces the occurrence of patients receiving multiple needle sticks to locate the vein for IV therapy.
Kathie Grover, RN at MTMC’s Cancer Center demonstrates the near-infrared technology (NIR) purchased by the hospital Foundation.
