It can accom- modate the treatment of up to 200 injured persons. Air ambulance Apart from the ambulances, the McCausland Hospital Ambulance This Week in Fire News The Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre is located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. This is a federal government- sponsored operation to assist the provinces with incidents of forest fires whereby equipment and man- power required for large fires is distributed on a need basis. Countries other than Canada en- joy the same benefits. Learning to get along at work very important continued from page 6 running well, it will probably break when you turn your back."' Problems occur at work, most of the time. The important thing is how we deal with them. One big problem is how to deal with our co- workers and supervisors when we have a disagreement with them about how the job should be done. Another problem that could be piled on top of that one is what to do if you cannot get along with your fellow workers' or supervisors. If you-see-or hear that a co- worker or supervisor is doing a job incorrectly or if some person is neglecting the job, it is up to you to challenge what the co-worker or supervisor is doing. That does not mean going up to him or her and starting an argu- ment. What it does mean is to look at what the person is doing and ask yourself, ""Why is the worker do- ing the job this way?" Then ask yourself, "How do I feel about what the person is do- ing?" Another important question is "Do I get along with this per- son? Will I provoke anger if I con- front him or her about the way he or she does the job?" The answers to these questions will provide you with the way you will challenge the problem. Now, it is upon you to tell the co-worker or supervisor about the job that he or she is doing. If you are on good terms with that person, tell her or him what he or she is do- ing wrong and how that makes you feel. If, on the other hand, you do not get along with the person, tell him or her what is wrong but don't say how you feel. 3 It just doesn't help, in this case. Also, look at the "body language" that you are giving out. Things like "'crossed arms "' show a person that you are unwilling to compromise- a definite "turn-off". What if the person is unwilling to change the way he or she does the job? At this point, you must realize that the only person you can really change is YOURSELF. Learn to live with the problem or better still; do the job right by yourself. Of course, this is not the only way you can deal with a pro- blem of this sort.

At present, the large forest fire in Heilongjiang province in China is under control at 800,000 hectares. The Chinese government has re- quested backpacks, shovels and axes to assist in confronting this fire and these were shipped aboard an armed forces aircraft yesterday (May 31). Local scene On the local scene, the disabled helicopter in Manitouwadge has been replaced and the injured pilot was flown to Ottawa to recover from the recent mishap. The fire weather indicies are low to moderate at present but great care must be practiced to make sure no fires are started. The rain received is usually scat- tered with some areas receiving more rain than others. This type of weather we are hav- ing is usually associated with dry lightning and fire starts are anticipated. : Service has the use of an air am- bulance which is operated by the Ministry of Health out of Thunder Bay. If an accident victim requires treatment in Thunder Bay, the air ambulance can be called in to take him or her there. If the helicopter is not in the area, then the victim must be taken to Thunder Bay by highway. If the helicopter is called to a scene, it would simply land on the highway, Schinbein said. He said there is an average of 200 calls for the helicopter in a year in our area. Injured persons can also be taken to destinations by fixed-wing air- craft out of the Terrace Bay Air- port, said Schinbein. Additional people needed Schinbein told the News that the ambulance service is presently seeking additional ambulance drivers/attendants who would drive the ambulance as well as provide First Aid. Persons wishing to respond to this need must be [8 years of age, possess a valid driver's licence and have an Ontario Secondary School diploma or the equivalent. These drivers/attendants would ~ be taught all they need to know through training. These skills would be reviewed often. Schinbein said that he and his co- workers and anyone who works in this field must "look, listen and feel." The workers must "learn to work with each other for the benefit of the patient," he said. the JUNE 27th 1987 editi \ The winning story prize will be awarded to the WINNER. HEy KIDs!
