Webster Minutes - February 12, 1992 Page 4 As6tiv, MEMORAf1DUM II1DtTo Board of County Commissioners Date February 12, 1992 COLORADO From Randy Gordon, M.D. , M.P.H. , Director, Health Department Quarterly Appearance Subject: The First Steps Program, a case management service for pregnant women funded by The Colorado Trust, continues to go well. At this point, over 200 women have been enrolled with our four case managers. This represents approximately 10% of the births in Weld County. The high rate of enrollmentspeaks to the excellent efforts of our project coordinator, Kitty Stevens, and the hard work of our case managers. Over 50% of the women enrolled in this program are under age 20. The women enrolled in this program come from all over the county. Ninety-five percent of the women enrolled in this program have no medical insurance, and 60% have not completed high school. Women enrolled in this program are tied into agencies throughout the county to help them meet their medical and other needs during their pregnancy. The Health Department continues to work with other health and human service agencies and the United Way to make our services more accessible to county citizens. One possibility is creating sites throughout the county where people can access services at one location. We are presently considering three of these sites: Kersey, Keenesburg, and East Greeley. It is our hope to increase the efficiency of multiple agencies dealing with -a single individual or family. We had a busy flu season with an epidemic occurring nation-wide. I think we were able to reduce the severity of the epidemic in Weld County by increasing the amount of vaccine distributed. Weld County Health Department gave 4,790 flu shots during 1991 as compared to 2,921 in 1990. The final phase of a six-month process of working with fire districts to provide physician advisorship for their EMT' s is coming to completion. Our EMS plan received a favorable review at the State level and allowed us to receive our 1992 designated money. We have been workingwith the fire districts to find the most workable solution for them and to improve quality of emergency medical services in the county. We are also looking at reasons why we had an excessive number of motor vehicular fatalities during 1991. Last year was our second worst year for motor vehicular fatalities ever. We had seen a downturn movement in motor vehicular crashes during the mid 1980's, supposedly related to the seatbelt law and public awareness of the problem of drinking and driving. However, during the past two years we have seen an increase in our fatality rates. We are looking at ways to bring resources into our county to address this significant public health problem.
