past week, certificates to Westfield winners of the poppy poster contest. Their artwork
will be now be submitted to compete in the American Legion’s state competition. The

poppies, according to Earnhardt, are made by disabled veterans as part of their reha

HCHS debate team wins several awards
Special to the Journal
The Houston County
High School debate team
continued its successful sea
son at the Warner Robins
High School Forensics
tournament Sept. 29-30.
The Novice Debate team
of Onica Matsika and Emily
Wellborn finished in fourth
place in their division and
the Junior Varsity team of
Ashleigh Burns and Jack
Liu finished in first place
in their division.
Also, Jack Liu won an
individual award for being
the fifth place overall
speaker in the JV Division
and Ashleigh Burns won an
individual award for being
third place overall speaker
in the JV Division.
In addition, Marlei
Martinez won individual
awards for being fifth place
overall in the Dramatic
Interpretation Event, first
overall in the Student
Congress session and first
overall in the Impromptu
Speaking event.
The team will represent
the school at numerous
Forensic events through
out the state during the
Houston County schools
practice life-saving skills
Special to the Journal
During the month of
November, which is Medical
Emergency Drill Month,
Houston County schools
are reviewing their emer
gency CPR/AED (auto
mated external defibrilla
tor) plans. Some schools
will conduct a mock drill
to practice emergency
response procedures to
evaluate and improve upon
the effectiveness of those
procedures.
The school Medical
Emergency Response
Captain will plan the drill
with the principal. This
gives administrators an
opportunity to evaluate
their emergency process
before an actual emergen
cy arises.
“A CPR/AED drill
improves the . chances of
saving the lives of stu
dents, teachers, admin
istrators and school visi
tors who may suffer sud
den cardiac arrest,” said
Kathryn Pauley-Shiplett,
R.N Houston County
Board of Education Lead
Nurse. “Since August
2004, there have been
18 probable sudden car
diac deaths reported in
Georgia schools. Studies
have shown that early 9-
1-1, CPR, defibrillation
and advance life support
can help save lives. Drills
allow our schools to prac
tice using a CPR manikin
and AED training device
to bring insight regarding
medical readiness should
an emergency arise.”
School drills will be based
on the Chain of Survival,
which is a four-step process
to provide treatment to
victims of Sudden Cardiac
Arrest.

remainder of the school
year.
Association, the Chain of
Survival recognizes that
most episodes of SCA occur
outside of a hospital, with
death occurring within
minutes of onset without
treatment. The links in
the chain of survival are
early access (call 9-1-1),
early CPR, early defibril
lation and early advanced
life support.
SCA accounts for at
least 350,000 deaths in
the United States each
year and some authori
ties believe the number is
much higher.
Cardiac arrest kills more
people than all forms of
cancer combined.
