Description

In order for your doctor and pharmacist to be able to optimally help you, it’s critical that at least one of your doctors (such as your primary care doctor) knows all of your medicines, and it’s best to get them all at the same pharmacy. Getty Images.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I am an 84-year-old male in fairly good health for my age. I take 8-10 pills a day, including two over-the-counter medications. I take four or five in the morning and four or five in the evening. My question is, how effective are these medications if they are all being taken together and mixed in my stomach? Won’t there be some kind of chemical reaction resulting in less effectiveness?

Seven hours. Ten teams. Real world pressure.   The Washington County Crisis Negotiation Team earned first place in a regional, scenario based competition in Spokane.   Teams from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana participated, each facing complex and realistic scenarios designed to test decision making under pressure.   This kind of training prepares negotiators for the moments that matter most. CNU negotiators focus on establishing communication, building rapport, and reducing emotional intensity through dialogue, while simultaneously gathering intelligence, assessing threats, and developing behavioral profiles to guide decision making.   Working alongside tactical teams and mental health professionals, they use empathy, active listening, and structured negotiation strategies to slow down incidents, increase options, and resolve crises safely for all involved.   The result reflects a shared commitment to serving the community with Dignity, Respect, Service, and Just Outcomes.   Watch the full interview here: https://youtu.be/y7ghAlgL7kY   #HillsboroPD #CommunityTrust #CrisisNegotiation #PublicSafety #BuiltOnServicePhotos from Hillsboro Police Department's post
