Lucknow takes series in two Lucknow met the visiting Nor- manby team Saturday on home ice to play the 2nd game of the first round of playoff action. Lucknow came out skating hard and moved the play into the offen- sive zone quickly. At 5:37 while short handed, Lucknow's Tyler Hamilton tucked a high one up over the Normanby netminder to open the scoring. Matthew Pritchard and Nigel Black assisted. Two minutes later Normanby came back to tie it up. Very early in the second, Bob Raymond made good on a rebound to pull ahead, assisted by Mark Hackett and Hamilton. Normanby OVICE Raymond scored again to pull ahead 3 - 2. In the third, Normanby obviously was getting tired, barely able to get the play out of their end zone. The Normanby goalie withstood 25 shots against in the third period alone. With the pressure on, Hamil- ton scored his third for a hat trick, assisted by his line maker Hackett and Raymond. Late in the period returned 39 seconds later to tie it up again at two a piece. While short New name for RNAs describes role of members by Jim Brown For 11 years the Ontario As- sociation of Registered Nursing Assistants requested a more definitive title for its profession. That was finally realized on Dec. 31 when Ontario Minister of Health Ruth Grier proclaimed the Regulated Health Professions Act. As . a result the professional as- sociation has changed its title to Registered Practical Nurses 'As- sociation of Ontario (RPNAO). RPNAO executive director Verna Steffler said that the title change better defines the role of the prac- tical nurse. She added that every member of the 4ssociation is pleased with the name change. She .said the title change better reflects the role and qualifications within the health care system. Prac- tical""'nurses provide professional "hands-on care" to the patients, whether the patients are in an institutional setting or within the community. Steffler said their specialty is the direct care of the patients. The RPNAO executive director said practical nurses are the people who feed and bathe the patients, and make sure they are as comfor- table as possible during the health crisis or ' chronic illness while striving to promote the patients' independence. She added the RPNs also participate in health teaching for diabetes, respiratory ailments, and cardiac care; as well as assis- ting with post-surgery recovery and foot care. Practical nurses work as an in- tegral part of the health care team, which includes doctors, registered nurses and rehabilitation personnel. RPNs provide these people with vital information, so as a team, the best treatment for a person's problem can be prescribed. It's usually the RPN who takes, the blood pressure and pulse, checks the temperature and assesses breathing and daily notes the obser- vations on the patient's chart. The title of the organization has changed several times over the past 55 years, but' the association did not get to select the name. At first they were called practical nurses, then certified nursing assistants and then registered nursing assistants. "After more than 50 years, we felt it was time we should- be able to pick our own name," she said. Steffler said that the term prac- tical nurse is one that is more readily used throughout North America. In the United States, they are called licensed practical nurses. Ontarioand the four western provinces now use the term prac- tical nurse. She said that the nursing assistant' program at the Wingham and District Hospital has also changed.- It will now be known as a practical nursing program. Graduates will have to write an exam in order to be called a registered practical nurse. KUBOTA FINANCE FLEXIBILITY SPECIAL FINANCE OFFER!
