FCH offers shots
Tens of thousands of fami-
lies mourn the loss of loved
ones each year to a variety of
diseases. Adding to the heart-
break, their death could have
been prevented if proper vac-
cinations were administered.
In advance of National
Immunization Awarene s s
Month this August, Faith
Community Hospital (FCH)
is encouraging parents and
guardians to make sure their
children are up-to-date with
immunizations.
“Vaccinations are a simple
and critical component of
our health and is designed to
keep us all safe and healthy,”
said Dr. Brent Shephard, a
physician at FCH. “We hope
that our community will take
advantage of this opportunity
to receive all of their needed
vaccinations before the new
school year begins.”
Immunizations keep in-
dividuals healthier and can
reduce medical expenses
by preventing illnesses that
cause people to miss school
and work. State law requires
that public school and child-
care facilities enforce vac-
cine requirements as a way to
protect the public from pre-
ventable diseases.
Physicians can typically de-
termine which vaccinations
are needed based on a pa-
tient’s age and previous vac-
cinations can be determined
by the child’s shot record.
Parents and guardians who
wish to schedule an appoint-
ment at the FCH Rural Health
Clinic can do so by callii
(940) 567-5528. The cli
ling
inic
i open Monday through Fri-
day, between 8 a.m. and 5
p.m. FCH Rural Health Clin-
ic accepts Medicaid and most
private insurances.
It is important that you bring
an up-to-date shot record at
the time of your appointment.
If you do not bring your
child’s shot record to your
appointment, the clinic will
have to reschedule you to
come another day when you
have the proper paperwork.
Patients who have not vis-
ited the FCH Rural Health
Clinic in a while or for the
first time will need to arrive
approximately 15 minutes
before their scheduled ap-
pointment to provide ample
time to complete paperwork.
To view a list of the recom-
mended vaccinations by age
by as recommended by the
Center for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC), you

Plug-in hybrids
Electric
have been
around for a very long time,
but they have not been able
to compete with the conven-
tional powered automobile,
pickup or heavy-duty ve-
hicles unless subsidized in
some fashion.
Car and Driver magazine
has an interesting article in its
August issue called “Plug-Ins
Go Mainstream” that com-
pares two plug-in hybrids,
the Ford Fusion Energi Tita-
nium and the Honda Accord
Plug-in Hybrid.
The editors at the magazine
rated the Ford slightly ahead
of the Honda. Overall, both
cars gave average perfor-
mance at an above average
price.
The Ford has a 141-horse-
power, 2.0 liter four-cylinder
internal-combustion engine
coupled to a pair of AC elec-
tric motors that generate 118
horsepower. The Energi’s
lithium-ion battery packs 7.6
kWh, which gives it an elec-

averaged 43
miles per gallon on a full tank
during their test drive.
The large batteries add
about 400 pounds to each ve-
hicle. The Ford weighs 3,986
pounds and the Honda tips
the scales at 3,783 pounds.
The Honda has a slightly
smaller battery that is rated
at 6.7 kWh and has a range
of 13 miles when using the
electric motor only. Its fuel
economy is a little better at
liles per gallon.

to drive 14 miles before the
engine fired up. The Honda
also allows the driver to use
“HV Charge” that charges
the battery while driving.
The Ford went 19 miles on
electric power before need-
ing the hybrid engine.

Price seems to be a big
problem.
The Ford costs $42,285 as
tested compared to $21,900
for the regular Fusion that
gets 22 miles per gallon in
city and 34 on the highway.
The Honda’s base price was
$40,570. The regular Honda
Accord LX lists for $21,680
with fuel economy at 27 in
town and 36 on the highway
Reliability of both plug-
in versions is an unknown.
How dependable will they
be? What is the cost of re-
pairs? How often does the
battery need to be replaced?
Will consumers pay the extra
dollars?
