Members of the family were present for the unveiling and tours of the new area, which was completely remodeled this spring and summer. Kirk Tyler said  “All of us here today have been touched by cancer – whether family, friends, or ourselves, we know the devastation that it can cause. In our own family, we lost our mom, Dottie, and most recently, our sister, Amy, to cancer. While I wish we could solve cancer – what we can do is help comfort and support the patients and families who are battling cancer now and in the years to come.” The Tyler Family Cancer Center provides care to patients throughout southwest and west central Iowa. Multiple oncologists and advanced practice providers work in the department. Oncologist Dr. Seema Harichand also spoke at the unveiling along with oncology patient Mike Henningsen.

After the announcement, visitors toured the newly expanded space and talked with the staff. Cass Health Specialty Clinic Director Traci Brockman, RN, said “This space has become a calming refuge for patients who often spend hours receiving treatments, like chemotherapy. We put a lot of thought and care into the details. The chairs have heat and massage functions, the colors are subdued, and we have a custom ceiling with star lights. All of these things help create a healing environment for our patients to relax.”

(Red Oak, Iowa) – Montgomery County Auditor Jill Ozuna reports the Board of Supervisors in her county will meet at 8-a.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 30th, in their courthouse meeting room. The only thing of note on their agenda, is continued discussion with regard to a Pipeline Engineer, and action as necessary.

Last week, the Board voted to go with Snyder and Associates Engineers, as the company to conduct pipeline inspections, in advance of a proposed $4.5 billion pipeline in Iowa and four other states that would capture carbon dioxide at ethanol, fertilizer and other industrial agriculture facilities, liquefy it under pressure, then transport it via the pipeline to North Dakota, where it would be permanently sequestered underground. The pipeline would (if approved), traverse about 18 miles in the western third of Montgomery county.

At 8:45-a.m., Tuesday, the Montgomery County Board will attend one of Senator Charles Grassley’s 99 County tours. His stop will bring Grassley to Agri-Solutions. Ozuna notes “There is a possibility that there will be a quorum. No official county business will be acted upon during that time.”
