Becky Aiken shared sample health related documents from Power School, the software used within GC Public Schools. I am uploading them so that we can become familiar with the kinds of health related data they are collecting, and to brainstorm other data points we would value if collected.

Hi Cindy, thanks for posting your vaccination data. I am wondering about your measures. Is each data point one patient that received one vaccine? I am guessing some patients are recipients of more than one vaccine at a visit. Is there a place to see the total number of vaccines, and which vaccines we are giving? And finally, I think about the…[Read more]
Hi Dr. Corder: The measurements you see each month here is counting the “number of persons vaccinated” by age group. It is a fact that one person may receive more than one vaccine at the time of visit, and we track that internally through our PatTrac database. As far as cost/value…the health department has always been a safety net of sorts…[Read more]

I saw this short video from the CDC about vaping and thought I’d share. It really is one scary experiment!

Thanks for your interest, Venessa! Yes, we are trying to fashion a community wide messaging initiative, so your group spreading the word is very timely.

We will share…[Read more]

While I was reading the NYT article, I also saw this survey (about vaping/juuls/ecigs) they are doing for adolescents and parents of adolescents. Maybe we can drum up people to take their survey. Let’s share the link! You do not need to have a NYT subscription to take the survey, just follow this link:…[Read more]

The New York Times has an interesting article they just published today about the electronic cigarette industry (vaping) as it relates to adolescents. As we have observed, the industry has not done enough to prevent their products (like Juuls) from getting into the hands of our adolescents. And now the FDA has given them 60 days to prove how they…[Read more]
