Dozens of off-shift health care workers rallied outside Swedish Issaquah on Wednesday as part of an organized “informational picket” to bring attention to labor negotiations over Swedish Medical Center’s contracts with registered nurses, technical workers and service employees. The contracts that covered those workers from 2011 to 2015 expired midnight July 1. Representatives for Swedish and SEIU Healthcare 1199NW have been in negotiations since April.

CELEBRATING INDEPENDENCE DAY

A 4-year-old boy died from injuries to his brain and spine sustained after being struck by a car at the intersection of Newport Way Northwest and Northwest Oakcrest Drive Friday morning. The boy, identified by the King County Medical Examiner as Hao Chen Xu, died at Harborview Medical Center Saturday while he was with his parents, neighbor Hart Sugarman said. Xu and his mother were crossing a pedestrian walkway outside the Oakcrest neighborhood where they lived when he was struck. His mother was physically uninjured. According to the city of Issaquah, the 67-year-old Klahanie woman driving the car stopped and cooperated with Issaquah police. Drugs or alcohol did not appear to be a factor in the accident.

Klahanie celebrated the Fourth of July with its 12th annual parade along Southeast Klahanie Boulevard Saturday, June 27. Festivities after the parade continued at the Klahanie Park, including a bouncy house, contests and live entertainment. For more photos of the parade and activities visit www.issaquahreporter.com.

While it won’t be as hot as last weekend, it will be dry and sunny all the same on the Eastside this Fourth of July weekend. “It’s definitely looking to be warmer than last year,” National Weather Service meteorologist Jonny Burg said. Burg anticipates highs in the mid80s throughout the weekend, which is about 10 degrees warmer than July 4, 2014. This still doesn’t beat the 1972 record of 91 degrees for July 4. Data was taken from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Burg cautions against sending too much time in the sun, suggesting SEE FOURTH, 3

people use sunscreen or to avoid it altogether. Like many fire chiefs in the area, Burg also encourages people to attend planned firework events, to keep fire hazards to a minimum. “In 2009 we had similarly dry weather before the Fourth and fire agencies had 302 fireworks-related fires,” Dave Nelson, speaking for the King County Fire Chiefs Association, said in a press release. “With this Fourth on a weekend, we expect a similar number of calls. People can reduce the potential of fireworks-related fires by attending a public display.” Officials are also urging people to only call 911 in an emergency situation. To report non-emergencies, illegal fireworks, call 425-837-3200 for Issaquah and (425) 836-5674 for Sammamish.

I

n 1980, an African American woman sat on an old dilapidated couch, shaking, as tears flooded her eyes. Legs covered with bruises, terrified, she held her infant daughter, trying to comfort her. Nearby, her four year old was curled in a fetal position, moaning softly. The floor was littered with a broken lamp, patches of hair, torn clothing, and crushed cereal. All grim reminders of her husband’s violence a few minutes ago. He was a 7 ft. 2” tall minister. She remembered him putting his face close, his fists tight, as he knocked her to the ground. Her belly tightened with pain, fear, and dread for what he would do next. He yelled, “You little whore! Don’t you know I’m head of the house, and you have to do what I tell you! If you ever try to leave me again, I’ll kill us all!” Sometime later, she heard the sound of the front door slamming. Temporarily alone, she called a 24-hour Domestic Violence Hotline, and found connections to a network of advocates who provided the tools and resources she needed to become a survivor. Three very strong and brave African American senior women of faith were also always there to encourage and support her. The great combination of helpers was a key ingredient in rediscovering her own voice, and learning that she deserved to be treated right. I was that woman, and you too can make a difference in your own life, as well as others. We all have a responsibility to take action to end violence, so that no one has to suffer the pain of abuse ever again.

Just not worth it

I

t is not surprising that there are fires burning in our state due to the extreme heat these last few weeks. As of this writing, there have been four major fires — the largest of which is 14,000 acres in the Columbia National Wildlife refuge, near Royal City, Washington. Another big fire is burning near Winthrop, Washington, covering 3,500 acres. Both are just 50 percent contained. And it seems that summer has just begun. So, it is more than ironic that along with fire season, it is also fireworks season. According to the online magazine, Money, American consumers spend $13 million more on fireworks last year because July 4 fell on a Friday. This coming weekend, with the holiday designated for Friday July 3, sets up a three-day weekend of an increased risk of fires and injury. The U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission reported that fireworks were involved in an estimated 11,400 injuries treated in hospital emergency departments in 2013. In our state last year, there were 45 fire-related fatalities. So why do we continue to allow consumer fireworks? It seems that for many, blowing up explosives over the holiday is practically a constitutional right. Yet exercising this right costs millions of federal and local dollars to fight accidental fires and to treat victims. Local public safety organizations and hospitals are left to pick up the pieces. So of course, fireworks are not responsible for all fires, big or small. But the risk — however small, is simply not worth it. The Washington State Legislature has grappled for years to find enough more money to pay for schools. As our planet continues to warm, so will the incidence of fires. Just how will we pay for that?

To the editor King County’s ‘Best Starts for Kids’ tax levy will save money State, county, and city officials joined with children’s health advocates to present the why and how of the Best Starts for Kids initiative June 17 at the Phinney Community Hall in Seattle. State Representative Ruth Kagi, King County Councilmember Rod Dembowski, and Seattle City Councilmember Tim Burgess revealed details of the proposed November ballot measure. “It’s the right thing to do, it’s also the fiscally responsible thing to do,” Dembowski said of the proposed 14-cent levy per $1,000 of assessed property value. Jason Gortney of the Children’s Home Society of Washington told how toxic stress in young children leads to many physical and mental problems. And “once they get behind,” Kagi said, “they tend to stay behind.” Burgess said better childhood care means “much, much, lower involvement with the criminal justice system.” The five-member panel addressed the 36th Legislative District Democrats monthly meeting, with a spirited Q&A following the hourlong slideshow and talks. Jennifer DeYoung, a health care reform analyst for Public Health Seattle & King County, said investing in early development prevents chronic disease, abuse, neglect, domestic violence and other crime. The time is right, Dembowski said, for “ending the school-to-prison pipeline” that starts with school

suspensions, and continues with dropouts, unemployment, reliance on social-welfare programs, and imprisonment--all very costly to the taxpayer. “For a $400,000 home,” he said, Best Starts for Kids would cost “about a dollar a week.” State budgetary battles make it unlikely much help will arrive from Olympia this year, Kagi said, but she expressed optimism that legislators may eventually approve a capital gains tax. The Best Starts for Kids levy would last six years, completing a “continuum of response from early pregnancy to age five and beyond,” Burgess said, and extend “proven outcome programs” from Seattle to the rest of King County. “The vast majority of the county’s general fund,” King County Executive Dow Constantine has said, “is used to pay for the criminal justice system. . . when there’s a negative outcome in a person’s life.” Best Starts for Kids, he said, would “focus on prevention. This is how we will turn proven ideas into results, and how we will put every child in our region on a path toward success.” DeYoung said the Gates Foundation is developing one of the programs the initiative may emulate. The King County Department of Community and Human Services would oversee finances and reporting for Best Starts for Kids. According to the proposed King County ordinance, if the King County Council puts the measure on the ballot and voters approve it, community-based organizations could submit competitive bids for outcomes-focused contracts. Fifty percent of levy revenue would

go to help children under age five and pregnant women, thirty-five percent to help children and youth ages five to 24, nine percent to the partnership between King County and The Seattle Foundation on Communities of Opportunity, and the final six percent for evaluation and data collection to ensure delivery of “results for every child in King County.” More info at www.kingcounty.gov/ beststarts.

Sammamish public works director leaves for Maple Valley Philpot has worked for the city since 2008 BY MEGAN CAMPBELL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

said. "Everybody's really sorry to see her go." Philpot was first hired as a Sammamish city engineer in July 2008. She was promoted to public works director in January 2011; she LAURA PHILPOT was named assistant city manager, in addition to being public works director, in March 2014.

In the Redzone

Fourth of July: A stroll down memory lane BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Certain holidays can create a tidal wave of memories that can rush back to a person like a hurricane. Each year, the Fourth of July brings me back to my childhood in Belfair, which is 71 miles west of Bellevue in Mason County. The Fourth of July was the pinnacle of the summer in the 1990s for the kids in my neighborhood. Each year a dozen of us would make a beeline for Beards Cove Park, a three-minute stroll from my parents’ house, to play a couple hours of basketball before the evening festivities

took place at our respective homes. By the time I arrived back home, I would be greeted with the sight of my dad’s best friend Oscar’s red truck parked in the driveway. Oscar, who lived in central Tacoma for the majority of his life, was ecstatic to SCOTT make the 38-mile drive to Belfair on an annual basis for our family’s favorite holiday. I couldn’t wait to discover what kind of food and beverages Oscar would bring. Typically, he brought hamburger patties, shrimp, hot dogs, chips and root beer.

I’ll never forget sitting at the kitchen table, listening to Oscar and my dad tell stories as they cooked up a sizable feast. As the daylight turned into darkness, our old creaky deck that was perched above our front yard became the hub of our Beards Cove neighborhood. It was just how my dad wanted it. The neighbors not only paid visits to our deck, they brought a plethora of fireworks as well. It was time to put on a show. The most memorable Fourth of July celebration of my childhood came in the summer of 1994. Because of all of the excitement of having a multitude of people at our house, I consumed 10 cans of coca-cola without anyone seeming to notice. The high amount of caffeine had an effect on my

12-year-old body. Around midnight, as I tried to light off the remaining bottle rockets, I had a tough time lighting the fuse. My hands and fingers couldn’t stop shaking, and my dad asked me why. I just looked at him and grinned before admitting I had drank 10 sodas throughout the evening. Much to my delight, he wasn’t even angry with me. He replied, “It’s the Fourth of July, so it’s Ok, son.” My dad was a disciplinarian. On any other occasion, his response would had been the opposite and I would had been in trouble. My father passed away in July of 2004. Tomorrow will be my 11th Fourth of July without him. Besides his birthday and Father’s Day, there isn’t another day that I think about him more than Independence Day. My memories of my favorite holiday will never leave me as long as I’m alive.

Swedish hospitals have 1,600 job vacancies, 700 of which are nurses, she said. Meanwhile, Tregoning said she knows coworkers who are in collections for health care received by their own employer under an unfavorable medical plan. “We’re down 1,600 people and we think

Thursday, July 9 Concerts in Pine Lake Park Location: Pine Lake Park, 2401 228th Ave SE, Sammamish 6:30-8 p.m. — Weekly concerts in Pine Lake Park run from July 9-Aug. 27. The Sammamish Rotary Club will have barbecue dinner for purchase. The Sammamish Kiwanis Club will also be selling ice cream. The July 9 concert features the zydeco group, Richard Allen & the Louisiana Experience. The zydeco genre is a kind of black American dance music originally from southern

there’s a reason for that,” she said. But June Altaras, Swedish’s system chief executive for acute care, said attaching the words “profit” and “vacancies” to those figures is misleading. For instance, Swedish is a nonprofit healthcare organization and the $110 million identified as profit is actually operating revenue after expenses used to purchase vital medical equipment, she said. Likewise, the 1,600 vacancies actually reflect a calculated estimate of hires Swedish needs to make for 2016, taking into account projected patient volume and anticipated employee turnover. That expected turnover ties into an aging workforce and a longstanding national nurse shortage, Altaras said. “It was predicted 20 years ago that we would have this shortage,” she said. “The tough part with the crash in 2008 was that it masked the shift. About 50 percent of nurses are Baby Boomers and when the financial crisis occurred, they stayed in the workforce a little longer. Now that it’s over, the exodus is more obvious.” According to a fact sheet provided by Swedish, management has offered up to

provider plan, which would remain in effect through the end of 2016. Julie Popper, a spokesperson for SEIU, estimated management and employees had met a dozen times without progress. The employees have the right to strike should negotiations reach an impasse, she said. But previous contract negotiations have been protracted before while avoiding a strike, Altaras said. “I’m a nurse and I worked at bedside for 25 years,” she said. “So myself and the whole senior leadership, we understand this concern around staffing and where it comes from. We just think the problem is misunderstood.” But Tregoning said health care workers’ concerns are closely tied to quality of patient care. “We need a little more give and take,” she said. “As caregivers, we don’t really have any ulterior motive here. “We’re Swedish patients too. Our families go there; we go there; they are us and we are them.” Daniel Nash: 425-391-0363 ext. 5052; dnash@issaquahreporter.com
