Dickinson Center Psychiatric Rehab Team Speaks Up on Suicide Prevention Month
RIDGWAY, Pa-- During September, National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, the Site-based Psychiatric Rehabilitation staff at Dickinson Center, Inc. (DCI) is joining other organizations and individuals across the nation and around the world to raise awareness about suicide prevention.
Rita Kraus, senior program director of DCI’s Site-based Psychiatric Rehabilitation services said, “Like addiction, suicidal thoughts can affect anyone, regardless of their age, background, or gender. If you or someone you know show signs of suicidal tendencies, SPEAK UP, because it’s important to receive professional help immediately.”
Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in the U.S. and it’s the 2nd leading cause of death among 15-24-year olds. In Pennsylvania, one person dies by suicide every five hours. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) researchers say more than half of people who died by suicide were not diagnosed with a mental health problem. So, suicide often takes family and friends by surprise.
“Suicidal urges may emerge as a result of untreated mental health conditions or challenging circumstances,” stated Robert Green, director of DCI’s Psychiatric Rehabilitation location in Bradford. “The more we raise awareness about this issue and the more we reduce stigma about speaking up, the more we are poised to offer support, help, and intervention.”
Anyone age 18 or older with the presence or history of mental health issues can participate or be referred to the DCI Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program for day-to-day behavioral health care. Offices are located in Bradford, Coudersport and Ridgway, PA. Staff members have received training in an overview of the incidence of suicide and basic awareness skills, as well as direction on how to proceed if they believe someone they are working with may be contemplating suicide.
However, the risk-factors that contribute to suicidal thoughts or behavior that are most important to consider include major life changes or losses of a loved one, relationships, role / identity, onset of illness or serious money issues. Individuals involved with serious trauma, including veterans, emergency services personnel or first-responders, can be at risk, depending on how personally each is affected by the trauma. Relapses in sobriety /addiction can also be particularly vulnerable moments. In addition, past attempts are major risk factors for potential future attempts, and therefore no past experiences should ever be minimized or disregarded.
The real warning sign is a loss of hope. Some other signs might include:
• Rage, uncontrolled anger, seeking revenge
• Acting reckless or engaging in risky activities, seemingly without thinking
• Feeling trapped, like there’s no way out
• Increased alcohol or drug use
• Withdrawing from friends, family & society
• Anxiety, agitation, unable to sleep or sleeping all the time
• Dramatic mood changes.
“There is hope and help,” stated Rebecca Keagle, director of DCI’s Psychiatric Rehabilitation located in Coudersport. “We’ve helped hundreds of individuals find recovery from mental illness and substance use disorders. Our team helps consumers build resilience and build connections during trying times.”
In addition to a comprehensive spectrum of behavioral health services, DCI offers crisis phone support to any person age 14 and older at:
• Elk/Cameron Counties 1-800-652-0562 anytime.
• Potter County 814-274-8729 during routine office hours.
The following hotlines operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week:
• National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 1-800-273-TALK (8255).
• Crisis Text Line. Text “PA” to 741-741.
• 9-1-1.

FRIDAY Update: 20 New Cases, 2 More Deaths In Potter Co.
Potter County Today
September 17th, 2021
Coronavirus case counts across the region are rising, as is the COVID-19 death toll. Between Wednesday and Thursday, some 20 more cases were confirmed among Potter County residents and there were two more deaths. There have now been 1,390 documented cases and 29 COVID-related deaths in Potter County. Pa. Dept. of Health points out that the figures are concerning because the number of tests being administered has fallen significantly.
Potter County now has an “active” case count of about 75, meaning that those victims have contracted the disease over the past two weeks and are considered highly contagious. DOH estimates that the number of people carrying the virus is likely four or more times higher than the reported cases. However, the department no longer releases information on “active” case counts per community, which hampers local officials’ decision-making on potential health and safety protective measures. Testing is available at UPMC Cole for physician-referred patients. Tests are also being administered at Buchanan Brothers Pharmacy (visit the website here or call 1-800-635-8611) and Rite Aid Pharmacy (visit the website here or call 814-274-0439).
Meanwhile, between Wednesday and Thursday there were 67 more cases and another fatality in neighboring Cattaraugus County, N.Y., where the count now stands at 6,595 cases and 96 deaths. Lycoming County had 81 more cases with two more fatalities. Totals in Lycoming are 13,434 cases and 312 deaths. Tioga County reported 55 more cases; between Wednesday and Thursday Allegany County, N.Y., 37 new cases and a 92nd death; McKean, 56 cases; Cameron, 4 cases; Clinton, 25 cases; and Elk, 60 new cases and a 45th fatality.
Potter County now has a vaccination rate of just over 41 percent (5,446) among residents age 18 and older. Statewide, upwards of 80 percent have been inoculated. An average of 10 Potter County residents per day have been receiving the vaccine over the past week. UPMC Cole offers the vaccine to eligible patients at its outpatient offices. To schedule an appointment for an adult, call 814-274-5460; for pediatric patients, call 814-274-9198. Buchanan Brothers Pharmacy in Coudersport administers the vaccine by appointment; call 814-274-8660. Rite Aid pharmacies continue to book appointments. To access the online reservation form, click here.
Statewide, there has been a surge in cases since mid-August. An average of 6,500 new cases are being diagnosed each day. Total cases in Pennsylvania since the pandemic began stood at 1,365,049 with 28,768 deaths as of Thursday. There has been a 250-percent increase in the number of children who have been infected since early August. In recent days, some 28 percent of all cases have been diagnosed in children.
Route 16 is REOPENED northbound and southbound in Machias
REOPENED: Route 16 is closed northbound and southbound from Lake Rd to Lakeview Blvd, due to a crash at 3:30pm, for up to 6hrs, Town of Machias, Cattaraugus Co. involving a passenger vehicle & a tractor-trailer.

RECALLS
Drew’s Organics, LLC Issues Voluntary Recall of Aldi Simply Nature Organic Poppy Seed Dressing for Potential Clostridium botulinum Contamination
Drew’s Organics, LLC of Chester, VT is voluntarily recalling one lot code of Aldi Simply Nature Organic Poppy Seed Dressing due to a processing issue that could allow for microbial growth.
The recalled product comes in a 12 fl. oz. glass bottle with the Best if Used By date of Feb 15 2023, and UPC #4099100023169. The lot code is printed on the shoulder of the bottle above the label.
This action is being taken in cooperation with the US FDA. Product has been distributed to select Aldi stores between August 20th and September 10th in the following states Alabama, Arizona, California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, North Dakota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Vermont, Wisconsin, and West Virginia.
Pfizer Expands Voluntary Nationwide Recall to include All Lots of CHANTIX® (Varenicline) Tablets Due to N-Nitroso Varenicline Content
Pfizer is voluntarily recalling all lots of Chantix 0.5 mg and 1 mg Tablets to the patient (consumer/user) level due to the presence of a nitrosamine, N-nitroso-varenicline, at or above the FDA interim acceptable intake limit. As alternative suppliers have been approved in the United States, Pfizer is undertaking this precautionary measure.
Long-term ingestion of N-nitroso-varenicline may be associated with a theoretical potential increased cancer risk in humans, but there is no immediate risk to patients taking this medication. The health benefits of stopping smoking outweigh the theoretical potential cancer risk from the nitrosamine impurity in varenicline.
Nitrosamines are common in water and foods, including cured and grilled meats, dairy products and vegetables. Everyone is exposed to some level of nitrosamines. These impurities may increase the risk of cancer if people are exposed to them above acceptable levels over long periods of time.i
Car Seat Safety Check Scheduled at CARE for Children during Child Passenger Safety Week
Bradford, PA – Free car seat safety checks, by certified child passenger safety technicians, are being offered on Tuesday, September 21st from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the Ashley Booth Griffin CARE for Children Center at 723 East Main Street in Bradford.
The event is part of Child Passenger Safety Week, which runs September 19-25, and will include instruction on how to install and use car seats correctly. Technicians will also help determine if your child is in the right seat for their age and size, and explain the importance of registering car seats with their manufacturers so parents and caregivers can be notified if there is a recall.
For the car seat checks, appointments are requested but not necessary. For those wishing to schedule a time call CARE at 814-362-4621 or email reception@careforchildren.info. Parents/ guardians are asked to bring both the vehicle manual and car seat instructions if available. For proper fitting it is requested that the child be present.
CARE is the lead agency for Safe Kids Pennsylvania-McKean County Partner and is partnering with the PA Traffic Injury Prevention Project, a program of the PA Chapter American Academy of Pediatrics, to hold the car seat safety event.
Motor vehicle crashes are a leading killer of children, and the latest research from the U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) shows that nearly half (46%) of car seats are misused. Using age- and size-appropriate car seats and installing them correctly are the best ways to reduce these deaths and keep your child safe.
NHTSA recommends keeping children rear-facing as long as possible, up to the top height and weight allowed by their particular seats. It’s the best way to keep them safe. Once a child outgrows the rear-facing car seat, he or she is ready to travel in a forward-facing car seat with a harness and tether. After outgrowing the forward-facing car seat, a child should be placed in a booster seat until tall enough to fit in a seat belt properly. The safest place for all kids under 13 is buckled up in the back seat.
Safe Kids Pennsylvania- McKean County Partner is a collaboration of community organizations, businesses and individuals dedicated to promoting child safety and injury prevention through education, collaboration and advocacy.
