Child and Adolescent Wellness Workgroup 5 years, 10 months agoInteresting article here about programs in Iceland centered around high risk behaviors of teens. Their solutions have worked exceptionally well for them. One of the lead authors is now working at WVU.

This workgroup has been expansive in ways to address many issues relating to adolescent wellness! I appreciate you sharing this background from the meeting. It is still so concerning that our county ranks so poorly in this area. I’m hopeful that all of the work being accomplished now will help us improve. Thank you for your continued leadership…[Read more]

Influenza Vaccine 5 years, 11 months agoLooks like flu activity is increasing and it won’t be long until we see more cases right here in Garrett County.

Vaccines for Adults and Children 5 years, 11 months agoHi 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.
