Show All Answers

1. Can Lincoln County Animal Shelter (LCAS) help with providing food for my pets?

If you are in need of assistance with food for your animals we are here to help. Our pick up process is as follows:

Stop by the shelter Wednesday through Saturday between noon and 4 pm to request a food bank withdrawal. It is required that you come into the shelter and answer a few basic questions with one of our team members. The information obtained will be entered into our system to ensure an accurate accounting of animals within our community.

2. How do I find assistance with spay/neuter?: The Central Coast Humane Society has programs to assist with community cats and those unable to afford spay/neuter surgeries. You may reach them at 541-265-3719. They are staffed by volunteers and normally return calls at 3 pm.

3. How do I find assistance with veterinary bills?: Central Coast Humane Society administers funds provided by their own donors, Friends of Lincoln County Animals (FOLCAS) and Beach Bark Funds to assist with community member's pet's medical emergencies. You may call 541-265-3719 for assistance. Please note that they are staffed by volunteers and normally return phone calls at 3 pm.

4. How is the Lincoln County Animal Shelter funded?: The Animal Shelter and Animal Services Deputies are primarily funded by our community through an Animal Services Taxing District. In addition, we are supported by fees, including licenses and adoptions, and generous donations by caring people and businesses. Our spay/neuter programs are funded by the Friends of Lincoln County Animals (FOLCAS). Donations to our Medical Trust Fund allow us to provide extensive life-saving care to animals in need.

5. How many animals find homes?

On average, Lincoln County Animal Shelter (LCAS) adopts or reunites over 1,100 animals per year (100% of healthy/treatable and 88% overall). LCAS provides lost-cost owner request euthanasias and accepts all animals in need, regardless of their behavior or medical condition.

LCAS is a "managed admissions" shelter, which means we accept surrendered pets from Lincoln County as space allows. All lost dogs and injured animals are immediately accepted. Animals are thoroughly evaluated for both health and temperament for our adoption program. Animals receive extensive medical treatment thanks to our medical trust fund, and are cared for by trained staff in partnership with volunteers. We have no breed discrimination rules. We do not euthanize any adoptable animals. All adoptable animals are with us until they find a home, or are transferred to a partner shelter-there is no time limit to their stay.

We do euthanize animals who are a danger to the public, who are suffering mentally and/or physically, or who have communicable diseases that will easily spread throughout the shelter population. The decision to euthanize an animal is never taken lightly, and each case is thoroughly assessed on an individual basis. If an animal must be euthanized, he or she is treated humanely and with respect, and all applicable laws and regulations are followed. Euthanized animals are cremated offsite.

6. What are the adoption fees?

Adoption fees help offset the daily cost of care for our animals, and for the medical treatment they receive ranging from vaccinations to extensive surgeries.

Puppy: up to 1 year of age $250
Dog: aged 1 to 7 years of age $175
Senior dog: age 8 and above $125
Kitten: up to 1 year of age $100
Cat: aged 1 to 7 years of age $75
Senior cat: age 8 and above $50

All adoptions include initial vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip, and a certificate for a free examination with a local veterinarian. Dog adoptions also include a one-year license, leash, collar, and two free behavior consultations.

7. What if the adoption isn’t working out? Can I return the pet?: If you are experiencing difficulties with your new pet, we are happy to work with you to try to resolve the issue through behavior advice, tips and/or training. If you find that the match still isn't working out, you may return the pet within 7 days of adoption to receive a full refund of your adoption fee. We always welcome back any animal we have adopted.

8. What is included with adoptions?: Every adoption through Lincoln County Animal Shelter (LCAS) includes the spay/neuter surgery, initial vaccinations, flea treatment/wormer, a vet exam, and microchip. Dog adoptions also include a one-year license, collar, leash, and two behavior training sessions. In addition, we evaluate pets for health and temperament, so that we can help match adopters with the pet that's right for them. We also offer post-adoption support to address concerns and questions that may come up after a pet goes home. In all, adopting a pet is a tremendous value for the price.

9. Why do so many people surrender their animals? Is there something wrong with the animals?: Most animals are surrendered because the owner's circumstances change, not because there is anything wrong with the animal. People may find that they can no longer afford to care for their animal, they need to move and their new housing does not accept pets, or they no longer have the time to spend with them. Failure to spay or neuter a pet also results in hard-to-place litters, which are then brought to the shelter. Many animals brought to the animal shelter are healthy, temperamentally sound, and terrific companions for their new adopters.

10. Do you accept and adopt other animals?: Lincoln County Animal Shelter (LCAS) primarily finds homes for dogs and cats; however, we do help small animals, birds, reptiles and livestock in emergencies. To rehome small animals, we recommend posting their information on Rehome: https://rehome.adoptapet.com/.

11. Can I bring in a feral cat?

Yes, but please be aware that truly feral cats cannot be accepted into our adoption program. If a cat is semi-social, we are able to place them as barn or shop cats. We encourage you to attempt cat deterrents to help solve issues you are experiencing.

We also encourage you to contact the Central Coast Humane Society to learn about local Trap/Neuter/Return options. You can also contact the Feral Cat Coalition for information about caring for community cats. We encourage colony caretakers to take steps to help the cats be good neighbors.

12. What do I need to do if my pet bites someone?: Call an Animal Services Deputy at 541-265-0777. By law, dogs that bite humans and break skin must be quarantined and observed for a 10-day period to ensure there are no symptoms of rabies. If an animal is up to date on its rabies vaccine, it usually can be observed at home. If an animal is not up to date on its rabies vaccine, or if the bite was a particularly dangerous one, the animal may be required to be quarantined and observed at the Lincoln County Animal Shelter. Unless there is a need for a hearing, the animal will be returned to the owner at the end of the observation period.

13. What should I do if I've been bitten by an animal?: Make sure to obtain the contact information for the owner and seek medical attention if necessary. Follow the instructions from Lincoln County Environmental Health. You should also report the bite to Animal Services at 541-265-0777 to file a report and to determine if the animal needs to be quarantined for rabies observation.

14. What should I do if my dog or cat is exposed to an animal with rabies?

Dogs and cats who are current on their rabies vaccines and are exposed to an animal that is known to have rabies will require a 45-day quarantine/observation period, which can most often be done at home. Dogs and cats that are not current on their rabies vaccines require a six-month quarantine period during which time they cannot have direct contact with humans or other animals. Please contact Lincoln County Environmental Health for guidance.

People often vaccinate their dogs against rabies, but fail to vaccinate their cats. Cats are more likely to come into contact with bats than dogs. Even indoor cats have been exposed to rabid bats. It is just as important to keep your cat up-to-date on rabies vaccines as it is your dog.

15. If I witness animal abuse or neglect, what should I do?: Under Oregon law, animal caregivers must meet "minimum standards of care," which means care sufficient to preserve the health and well-being of the animal. Essentially, it means animals must be provided with potable water, food, shelter, a clean environment, and proper veterinary care. If you believe minimum care standards are not being met, or if you believe an animal is being physically abused, has been abandoned, or is in immediate danger, please contact an Animal Services Deputy at 541-265-0777. You may also submit a citizen report online. Law enforcement may decide to remove or seize the animal and may place him or her in protective custody with Lincoln County Animal Shelter (LCAS).

16. How do I report a barking dog or other nuisance?: You may contact an Animal Services Deputy through dispatch at 541-265-0777 or submit a citizen report online.

Through all our collaborative CHIP work, we aim to uphold these principles:

Use an equity lens in planning and implementation
Connect and support the programs and organizations already working in these areas to share resources and work collaboratively to meet the needs of our communities
Support evidence-based initiatives

We will reach our CHIP goals and objectives by focusing on these collaborative strategies in our coordinated efforts:

Increase the capacity of local organizations to apply for, access, and provide funds and training
Increase pervasiveness of environments that support health and well-being

3. How was the 2019 Community Health Improvement Plan developed?

CHIP development begins with a Community Health Assessment (CHA), which Lincoln County completed in 2018 (full report Community Health Assessment (PDF)). Listening sessions were held with a wide variety of community groups to discuss the CHA results and to select 3 priority areas for the CHIP.

The current CHIP was developed through three workgroups. Each workgroup is responsible for a priority area. The three workgroups and priority areas are: Healthy Living, Mental Health Promotion and Community Resilience, and Substance Abuse Prevention.

Over November and December of 2019, each workgroup convened in two planning meetings. The purpose of these meetings was to develop the plan that will guide our community's work in these priority areas over the next five years.

The 2019 to 2024 CHIP was finalized in March 2020 and is being implemented through coordinated efforts between community-based organizations, engaged community members, and governmental agencies.

4. Who should be involved in developing, implementing, and monitoring the CHIP?

Anyone who lives, works, or learns in Lincoln County is welcome to participate in the workgroups.

It is important for the organizations and individuals affected by the plan to be involved with developing and implementing it.

The Faster Internet Oregon project will provide decision-makers with data that will:

Identify Oregon homes that lack high-speed Internet;
Clarify which households don't have an Internet connection and why;
Provide cost estimates and assess competitive viability of a variety of technical solutions for areas with identified gaps.

This campaign will help secure infrastructure funding across the state and ensure the funding is equitably allocated so that everyone has access to fast, affordable Internet service.

Please help us identify Oregon's areas with the greatest need for high-speed broadband by visiting Faster Internet Oregon Website. It takes less than 1 minute!

2. What information are you collecting?: We are ONLY collecting information on whether you have an Internet connection, the speed of that connection if you do, and your address. We do not ask for your name or contact information.

Minors' Healthcare Rights

Show All Answers

1. Who is considered a minor and why does this matter?: A minor is any person under the age of 18. In general, a minor's age determines whether they are able to access health care services independently or if parental or guardian consent is required. Additionally, some services that a minor can access independently can be kept confidential, while others cannot. This can be helpful information in order to plan the most appropriate health services for children and youth.

2. What is consent?

Consent is an acknowledgement (usually in writing) of any or all of the following:

The patient understands the treatment he/she will receive.
The patient authorizes the treatment.
The patient understands how private information will be shared.

All consent should be informed consent (ORS 677.097). Informed consent for health services should be verbal or in writing and includes: a description of the treatment the patient will receive, a description of alternative treatments and a description of any risks involved with the treatment.

3. What are some common health services and consent?

Medical and dental services (Oregon Revised Statute ORS 109.640)

Minors who are 15 years or older are able to consent to medical and dental services without parental consent. This includes hospital care, as well as medical, dental, optometric and surgical diagnostic care. This would include services such as:

Treatment for illnesses or injuries (colds, sprained ankle);
Sports or camp physicals;
Dental visits (check-ups, cleanings, fillings);
X-ray services;
Emergency room visits;
Vision care (except for first time contact lens visit); and
Immunizations.

Mental health and chemical dependency (ORS 109.675)

A minor who is 14 years or older may access outpatient mental health, drug or alcohol treatment (excluding methadone) without parental consent. These services may include:

Seeking help from a psychiatrist or psychologist;
Seeking mental health therapy from a doctor or social worker; and
Seeking help for drug or alcohol use.

Providers are expected to involve parents by the end of the minor's mental health, drug or alcohol treatment unless:

The parent refuses involvement;
Clear clinical indications to the contrary exist and are documented in the treatment record;
There is identified sexual abuse; or
The minor has been emancipated and/or separated from the parent for at least 90 days.

For mental health and chemical dependency services, the provider may disclose health information to a minor's parent or guardian per ORS 109.680 if:

It is clinically appropriate and in the minor's best interests;
The minor must be admitted to a detoxification program; or
The minor is at risk of committing suicide and requires hospital admission.
Although minors age 14 and older can access outpatient mental health and chemical dependency services independently, parents are expected to be involved in their treatment at some point.
Involvement does not mean that adults always have access to a minor's mental health or chemical dependency records.
Federal regulation 42 CFR 2.14 states that if a minor is able to self-consent for drug or alcohol treatment, the minor's treatment records cannot be disclosed without the minor's written consent (including to the parent or guardian).

4. Who has access to Family planning/sexual and reproductive health (ORS 109.610, ORS 109.640)?: Minors of any age are allowed to access birth control-related information and services as well as testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) including HIV, without parental consent.

5. What about consent to sex?

Oregon law does not give individuals the ability to consent to sex until the age of 18; however, there are a few important points to consider. Sexual activity is a normal part of development, and according to the 2009 Oregon Healthy Teens Survey, 1 of 11th grade students:

Forty-eight % have had sexual intercourse.
Of those, 58% reported using a condom.

Ensuring that young adults have proper resources and information on sexual activity is important for them to make healthy choices.

6. Do minors have confidentiality of health care services?

Oregon law does not give minors a "right" to confidentiality or parents a "right" to disclosure. However, federal law may offer additional protections in some circumstances. When a minor self-consents for health care services, providers are encouraged to use their best clinical judgment in deciding whether to share information with the parent or guardian (ORS 109.650).*‡ However, most people, minors included, expect some level of confidentiality when receiving health care services.

Providers and adolescent patients should discuss usual confidentiality practices, as well the types of information that providers are required to report. This will have an impact on a minor's willingness to seek health care services they may have otherwise avoided. Rules that providers or facilities may have about minor confidentiality and disclosure are not intended to prohibit or discourage minors from accessing needed health care services, but to encourage proper support in the decision-making process.

Oregon law does protect providers from civil liability when a diagnosis or treatment is provided to an authorized
minor without the consent of the parent or legal guardian of the minor. (ORS 109.685).

For minors who self-consent for drug or alcohol treatment services in certain settings, providers are not permitted to disclose the minor's treatment records to the parent/guardian without written consent by the minor per federal regulation 42 CFR 2.14(b).
All clinics and/or providers who participate in Title X grant programs must follow federal regulations regarding confidentiality per 42 CFR 59.11.

Minors' Healthcare Rights Spanish

Show All Answers

1. ¿A quién consideramos un menor de edad y por qué es importante?: Cualquier persona que no ha cumplido los 18 años de edad. En general, la edad del menor determina si puede concedérsele acceso a servicios de atención médica de forma independiente o si se necesita el consentimiento de sus padres o tutores legales. Asimismo, algunos de los servicios que el menor puede recibir independientemente pueden tratarse de forma confidencial, pero otros no. Puede tratarse de información útil a fin de planificar los servicios médicos más adecuados para el niño o adolescente.

2. ¿Qué es el consentimiento?

El consentimiento es la aceptación (por lo general por escrito) de cualquiera o todos los siguientes:

El paciente entiende el tratamiento que recibirá.
El paciente autoriza el tratamiento.
El paciente entiende la manera en que se dará a conocer su información privada.

Todo consentimiento debe ser un consentimiento informado (ORS 677.097). El consentimiento informado para los servicios médicos debe hacerse de forma verbal o escrita e incluye: la descripción del tratamiento que recibirá el paciente, la descripción de otros tratamientos posibles y la descripción de todo riesgo que suponga el tratamiento.

3. Que servicios de salud comunes y consentimiento tinenen los menores?

Los menores a partir de los 15 años de edad pueden consentir a servicios médicos y dentales sin el consentimiento de sus padres. Estos servicios incluyen atención hospitalaria, así como médica, dental, optométrica y de diagnóstico quirúrgico. Ello incluiría servicios como:

El tratamiento de enfermedades o lesiones (resfríos, esguinces de tobillo).
Exámenes físicos para practicar deporte o asistir a campamentos.
Visitas al dentista (revisiones, limpiezas, empastes).
Servicios radiológicos.
Visitas a la sala de emergencia.
Atención de la vista (salvo la primera visita para lentes de contacto); y
Vacunas.

4. Que es Salud mental y la farmacodependencia (ORS 109.675)?

El menor a partir de los 14 años de edad puede recibir tratamiento ambulatorio de salud mental y por consumo de alcohol o drogas (salvo metadona) sin el consentimiento de sus padres. Dichos servicios podrían incluir:

Obtener la ayuda de un psiquiatra o psicólogo.
Recibir terapia de salud mental en manos de un médico o trabajador social; y
Buscar ayuda para problemas relativos al consumo de alcohol o drogas.

Se espera que los proveedores procurarán la participación de los padres al finalizar el tratamiento de salud mental, por consumo de alcohol o drogas del menor a menos que:

The padre o la madre se niegue a participar.
Las órdenes clínicas indiquen lo contrario y éstas hayan sido documentadas en la ficha de tratamiento.
Se haya identificado abuso sexual; o
El menor ha sido emancipado y/o separado del padre o madre durante un periodo de 90 días como mínimo.

En el caso de los servicios de salud mental y de farmacodependencia, el proveedor puede divulgar la información médica a los padres o tutores legales del menor en conformidad con el estatuto ORS 109.680 si:

Es lo adecuado desde el punto de vista clínico y es por el bien del menor;
El menor debe ser internado en un programa de desintoxicación; o
El menor corre el peligro de cometer suicidio y
Es necesario internársele en el hospital.
Si bien los menores a partir de los 14 años de edad pueden solicitar independientemente servicios ambulatorios para la salud mental y la farmacodependencia, se espera que los padres participarán en el tratamiento en algún momento.
La participación no significa que el adulto tendrá siempre acceso a los expedientes de salud mental o de farmacodependencia del menor.
La regulación federal 42 CFR 2.14 indica que si el menor tiene la facultad para consentir por sí mismo a un tratamiento por consumo de alcohol o drogas, la ficha de tratamiento del menor no puede ser divulgada sin su permiso por escrito (esto incluye a los padres o tutores legales).

5. Que accesso tienen los menores a la planificación familiar y la salud sexual y reproductiva (ORS 109.610, ORS 109.640): Los menores de cualquier edad tienen permitido acceder a la información y a los servicios relacionados con el control de la natalidad, así como a pruebas y tratamiento de infecciones de transmisión sexual (ITS), incluyendo el VIH, sin el consentimiento de sus padres.

6. ¿Qué hay del consentimiento al sexo?

La ley de Oregon no otorga a las personas la capacidad de consentir a las relaciones sexuales hasta que cumplan los 18 años de edad. Sin embargo, deben considerarse ciertos aspectos importantes. La actividad sexual es una parte normal del desarrollo, y según la encuesta realizada a los estudiantes del 11o grado en 2009 con respecto a la salud de los adolescentes en Oregon (2009 Oregon Healthy Teens Survey)1:

El cuarenta y ocho por ciento ha tenido relaciones sexuales.
De dicho porcentaje, el 58 por ciento indicó haber utilizado preservativos (condones).

Para que los jóvenes adultos puedan tomar decisiones saludables, es importante que cuenten con los recursos y información sobre la actividad sexual.

7. Que confidencialidad de los servicios de atención médica tienen los menores?

La ley de Oregon no confiere a los menores el "derecho" de confidencialidad ni a los padres el "derecho" a la divulgación. Sin embargo, la ley federal podría ofrecer amparos adicionales ante ciertas circunstancias. Cuando el menor da su autorización para recibir un servicio médico, se recomienda que el proveedor emplee su mejor juicio, desde el punto de vista clínico, para decidir si debe dar a conocer la información a los padres o al tutor (ORS 109.650).*‡ No obstante, la mayoría de las personas, los menores entre ellas, esperan cierto nivel de confidencialidad cuando reciben servicios de atención médica.

Los proveedores y los pacientes adolescentes deben conversar acerca de las prácticas de confidencialidad acostumbradas, así como de la clase de información que los proveedores tienen la obligación de reportar. Eso afectará la disposición del menor para solicitar servicios de atención médica que de otro modo quizá hubiese evitado. Las reglas que los proveedores o las instituciones médicas pudieran tener con respecto a la confidencialidad de los menores y la divulgación no se proponen prohibir que los menores soliciten los servicios de atención médica que necesitan o disuadirlos de ello, sino fomentar el apoyo adecuado en el proceso de
toma de decisiones.

La ley de Oregón no protege a los proveedores de responsabilidad civil cuando proporcionan un diagnóstico o tratamiento a un menor de edad autorizado sin el consentimiento del padre o tutor legal del menor (ORS 109.685).

En el caso de los menores que dan su consentimiento para recibir tratamiento por consumo de alcohol o drogas en ciertos entornos, los proveedores tienen prohibido divulgar la información de la ficha de tratamiento del menor a los padres o tutores legales sin el consentimiento por escrito del menor, en conformidad con la regulación federal 42 CFR 2.14(b).

Risk of Fentanyl Overdose Death in Schools

Show All Answers

1. What is fentanyl?

Fentanyl is a very strong opioid. Although fentanyl is made and used pharmaceutically, it is also produced illegally in Mexico and trafficked into the United States, usually as powder and pills. A very small amount can cause someone to overdose and die.

In Oregon, fentanyl is most commonly seen in blue pills made to look like pharmaceutical oxycodone. People who sell or purchase drugs may call these pills "M-30s," "blues," "dirty 30's" or "Mexies." These fake pills are usually blue in color and stamped to look like real oxycodone pills you would get from a pharmacist. Because it takes a very small amount of fentanyl to cause an overdose, one pill can be deadly.

In 2021, Oregon saw 11 fentanyl-related fatal overdoses in ages 0-17 and 53 in ages 18-24.

2. Why is fentanyl a threat to youth in Oregon?

Youth may use drugs for different reasons.

Youth may use drugs to cope with mental health problems and stress. Many are still struggling from the effects the COVID-19 pandemic had on their lives in and outside of school.
Youth may experiment with drugs with their friends or in social settings.
Youth may desire oxycodone pills for the feelings of euphoria they can cause.

Fake pills are easy to get at school or via social media.

There are accounts on social media designed to sell pills and other drugs.
Snapchat is a popular tool for purchasing drugs because messages disappear.

When youth use illegal pills, they may not know:

That the pills are fake. They may think the pills came from a doctor or pharmacist.
That counterfeit pills contain fentanyl and other dangerous drugs.
What fentanyl is, or know that one pill can be deadly.
How to recognize and respond to an opioid overdose.

3. How can schools and parents work together to reduce youth overdose risks?

Youth need to be educated on the dangers of fentanyl, even if they only try one pill one time. Schools and parents should share the following messages with youth:

Assume all pills offered to you are fake and contain fentanyl. You can't smell or taste fentanyl. You cannot tell if a pill is fake just by looking at it.
Do not take any pill that you do not directly get from a doctor or pharmacist. Pills purchased online or from social media are not safe.
Every pill is different - even if one pill seems safe another pill from the same batch may contain fentanyl.
The amount of fentanyl in one pill can vary widely. Splitting a pill may not be a safe option because all the fentanyl could be in one half of the pill.
If you or someone around you takes an illegal pill, know how to recognize an opioid overdose. Never use illegal pills when you're alone.
Provide easy access to naloxone, also known as Narcan®. Narcan® is a drug that reverses the effects of an opioid overdose. Naloxone can be administered as an injection or as a nasal spray.
- You can get naloxone through:
  - Any pharmacist in Oregon can prescribe naloxone for you.
  - Anyone who can prescribe medication can send a naloxone prescription to your pharmacy.
  - Lincoln County Harm Reduction provides free naloxone 541-270-9069.
  - Confederated Tribes of The Siletz Indians also provides free naloxone, 541-444-9672.

4. What should schools do?

Share this bulletin with parents and caregivers.
Train school staff to know the signs of an opioid overdose (see above).
Have Narcan® available in case an overdose occurs on campus.
Work with your Department of Education to create new drug education curriculums that include current information on fentanyl. Schools can facilitate this education through media campaigns and other primary prevention strategies.
State health departments and departments of education should work together to create and implement new curriculum. Examples include: Fake and Fatal and Operation Prevention.
Engage with your local public health and public safety agencies to identify and implement strategies meaningful to your local jurisdiction.

5. What should parents do?

Know the signs of an opioid overdose:
- Pinpoint pupils, Slow, shallow, or no breathing
- Gurgling or snoring
- Difficult to wake or can't wake
- Extreme drowsiness
- Cold, clammy skin
- Grey/blue skin, fingernails, or lips
- Call 911 if you think someone is overdosing. You will not get in trouble for calling 911 because of Oregon's Good Samaritan Law (PDF).
Talk to youth about the dangers of pills and fentanyl. Youth naturally consider parental opinions in their decision making process more than parents may realize. Encouraging open communication about risky behaviors and emphasizing the dangers of counterfeit pills and fentanyl could save their life. Let them know it's okay to ask for help with their mental health.
Work with local school districts to advocate for updated, drug education curriculums that reduce stigma around drug use.
If you are worried your child or their friends may be at risk of an overdose, have Narcan® in your home and make sure everyone knows how to access it. Find information on naloxone and how to obtain it.
Get rid of unused or expired medications on National Drug Take Back Day on April 30, 2022. Find more information, including drop off locations.
