Funds cut
Nursing homes to get less aid?
United Press International
AUSTIN — State officials Thurs
day revealed a plan to cut state pay
ments to nursing homes for care of
the elderly and instead provide in-
home services to old people who do
not need 24-hour care for medical
reasons.
Department of Human Resources
officials said the changes would not
affect individuals already in nursing
homes, but would apply to indi
viduals seeking state aid under
Medicaid in the future.
Dr. Emmett Greif, deputy com
missioner for DHR’s medical prog
rams, said the state agency is propos
ing elimination of the lower of two
intermediate levels of care in nurs
ing homes for those under Medicaid.
Greif noted the Legislature has
conducted hearings on alternative
care arrangements and urged the
state agency to investigate ways to
allow older people to stay in their
own homes as long as possible.
“Neither the Legislature nor
DHR is anti-nursing home,” Greif
said.
“What is being proposed are new
programs which include nursing
home care, but also provide alterna
tives.”
Alternate, in-home care includes
chore services such as house clean
ing, meal prepartion, dish washing
or shopping.
Greif said programs such as
Meals-on-Wheels that deliver warm
meals to home-bound individuals
Amigoman logo to go commercial
United Press International
EL PASO — Amigoman, the internationally known symbol of this
bicultural city, is going commercial.
The city has decided to begin offering a new line of merchandise to
retailers inscribed with Amigoman—a smiling sun wearing a Mexican
sombrero and cowboy boots. The logo represents the blending of
cultures of Mexico and the Western United States.
Robert L. Knight, acting director of the Convention and Visitor’s
Bureau, said the city intends to offer the Amigoman logo on “T-shirts,
bowling balls, anything that will sell.”
In addition, Knight said Amigoman pins and patches, long popular
with conventioneers, will begin bearing the name of El Paso and a
registered trademark symbol.
are a consideration.
Another alternative, he sug
gested, might k>e adult day centers
where elderly individuals could stay
while younger relatives are at work.
Also under consideration, he said,
are group living arrangements that
would enable a group of elderly peo
ple to live together and share costs of
food, housing, janitorial services and
perhaps a live-in attendant.
The difference in cost to the state
is dramatic, he said.
“It costs an average of $518 per
month per patient for Medicaid care
in a nursing home. The average
monthly cost of caring for a recipient
in his own home is $134, because
24-hour nursing care is not involved
and may not be necessary,” he said.

Family saved by paper carrier
United Press International
HOUSTON — Dave Nagel credits the man who delivers his morn
ing newspaper <vith waking him and his sleeping family and rescuing
them from their burning home.
“We might still be sleeping if it wasn’t for this man, ” Nagel said after
Randall Harling banged on windows and doors to wake the family after
he saw smoke from a roof vent and then a flash inside the house.
Harling, 25, was on his route when he discovered the fire early
Wednesday morning. He stopped to wake the family, woke the neigh
borhood in the process and then called the fire department.
With the family awakened, Harling then called the fire department.
“Had the alarm been delayed just a few minutes, the roof would
have busted through and embers would’ve spread with the wind onto
the wood shingles of other houses,” District 18 Fire Chief Rubin
Puckett said.
