>>> DAY TWO OF THE NATIONWIDE HEALTHCARE STRIKE IS WRAPPING UP WITH SOME SIGNS OF PROGRESS.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US, I AM MAYA TRABULSI.

>>> ABOUT 4500 EMPLOYEES HAVE A PICKETING AT KAISER CLINICS AND HOSPITALS ACROSS SAN DIEGO COUNTY.

IN MATT HOFFMAN'S LIFE IN LA MESA WITH THE LATEST.

>> Reporter: THESE WORKERS YOU HEAR BEHIND ME STRIKING MEANS THERE HAS BEEN NO DEAL YET BETWEEN KAISER AND THE UNION.

THEY HAVE BEEN ON STRIKE SINCE WEDNESDAY.

THE LATEST WE HAVE IS THEY ARE WORKING WITH THE UNION COALITION AND WORKING HARD TO GET ALL OF THIS RESOLVED.

YESTERDAY WE HEARD FROM KAISER BUT THERE HAS BEEN PROGRESS AND TENTATIVE AGREEMENTS MADE.

BUT CLEARLY NOT EVERY THING IS SETTLED YET.

I WANT TO BRING IN MICHAEL REMY WHO IS THE PRESIDENT OF LOCAL 30.

WHAT CAN YOU TELL US ABOUT HOW NEGOTIATIONS HAVE BEEN GOING AND IF YOU GUYS CAN GET THIS ALL RESOLVED?

>> AS FAR AS THE ISSUES ARE GOING, I THINK THE FACT WE ARE ON STRIKE IS ANSWERING PART OF THE QUESTION.

BUT CURRENTLY WE STOPPED OR TOOK A BREAK AROUND NOON.

WE ARE STILL STUCK ON ISSUES REGARDING OUR STAFFING CRISIS -- >> IT WOULD APPEAR OUR LIVE CREW HAS TECHNICAL ISSUES.

WE WILL CHECK IN WITH THEM LATER.

>>> MEANWHILE SAN DIEGO'S HOMELESS OUTREACH IS GETTING FUNDING.

>> Reporter: SIMPLY MEMBERS SECURED SEVEN $50 MILLION TO EXPAND THE SAN DIEGO HOUSING COMMISSION MULTIDISCIPLINARY OUTREACH PROGRAM.

>> IT IS TOUGH WORK.

THE RESULTS WILL NOT BE IMMEDIATE BUT WE WILL GET THE FUNDING OUT QUICKLY.

A PLAN IS IN PLACE.

THIS MONEY CAN BE USED ACROSS THIS ACTION OF HOMELESS PEOPLE.

>> Reporter: SAN DIEGO MAYOR SAYS THERE ARE CURRENTLY OVER 50 OUTREACH WORKERS WHO GO OUT INTO THE COMMUNITY TO HELP UNSHELTERED RESIDENTS.

>> HOUSING ENDS HOMELESSNESS.

BUT GETTING FOLKS INTO HOUSING IS NOT POSSIBLE WITHOUT TALENTED OUTREACH WORKERS WHO CONTACT THE INDIVIDUALS AND HELP GET THE MEDICARE AND HELP THEM ADDRESS THE CAUSE OF THEIR HOMELESSNESS.

>> WE MEET THEM WHERE THEY ARE AT.

?

ERIC A MATTER IS THE ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR FOR OUTREACH SERVICES AND DESCRIBES HOW THE FUNDING WILL BE USED.

>> WE NEED TO ADD MORE STAFF MEMBERS TO OUR TEAM THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE.

WE WILL BE ABLE TO CONNECT OUR POPULATION AND THE CLIENTS WE SERVE TO SERVICES LIKE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, HOUSING, MEDICAL NEEDS.

SUBSTANCE USE SERVICES, DIRECT CARE.

>> Reporter: SHE SAID IT WILL PRODUCE RESULTS IN VALUABLE DATA.

>> WE HAVE THIS NUMBER OF HOMELESS PEOPLE OFF THE STREETS, WE GOT THIS NUMBER OF PEOPLE INTO SERVICES.

WHEN YOU CAN SHOW THE RESULTS I THINK IT MAKES, I THINK IT HELPS MAKE A MORE EFFECTIVE ARGUMENT.

>>> AND I DID A HOUSE HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS ON MILITARY LAND RECEIVED BAD NEWS THIS WEEK FROM THE COMMANDER OF THE MARINE CORE AIR STATION PRINT 27.

>> Reporter: IN A LETTER MONDAY TO THE SAN DIEGO MAYOR THE COLONEL WROTE THE BASE IS NOT A SUITABLE LOCATION FOR A PROPOSED HOMELESS CAMP.

A PAIR OF SAN DIEGO WAS THIS IS HAVE PUSHED FOR SUN BREAK RANCH, WHICH WOULD HOUSE PEOPLE AND CONNECT THEM WITH AID PROGRAMS.

THE PLAN HAS LEARNED SUPPORT FROM DIFFERENT CIVIC AND BUSINESS ORGANIZATIONS.

BUSINESSMEN GEORGE MEN SAYS IT IS THE FAILURE OF THE CITY TO ENFORCE LAWS, SUCH AS THE PUBLIC CAMPING BAN PAST THE SUMMER.

>> THE CONCEPT IS, IF WE PROVIDE A CLEAN AND HEALTHY AND SAFE ENVIRONMENT, WHERE THERE WAS A BED FOR EVERYONE AT ALL TIMES, THAT WE CAN TURN TO THE RULE OF LAW IN ALL OF OUR AREAS.

>> Reporter: ADVOCATES FOR THE RANCH TO THE BASE IS IDEAL FOR THEIR CONCEPT BECAUSE OF ITS CENTRAL LOCATION.

BUT THE EASTERN PORTION OF MIRAMAR IS A SITE OF FOUR PLANE CRASHES OVER 20 YEARS.

IT IS ALSO HOME TO GUN RANGES AND EXPLOSIONS DATING BACK TO WORLD WAR II WHEN THE SITE WAS USED AS A LIVE FIRE RANGE.

HE ALSO SAID IT IS HOME TO ENDANGERED PLANTS AND ANIMALS.

THERE IS PRECEDENT FOR FEDERAL LAND USED IN RESPONSE TO CRISIS EZE.

HE COMPARES THE RANCH CONCEPT THOSE COMPARED TO FEMA DURING DISASTERS.

>> THIS IS A EXAMPLE OF TRIAGE.

TO GET THESE PEOPLE TO A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN BE DIAGNOSED AND DIRECTED WHERE IT WOULD BEST HELP THEM.

>> Reporter: HE IS SKEPTICAL OF THE MARINE CORPS CLAIMS AND SAID THE BASE COMMANDER IS NOT THE TOP OF THE CHAIN OF COMMAND.

IF THE BASE DOES NOT WORK OUT THEY SAID THE RANCH CONCEPT IS NOT SITE SPECIFIC.

>>> THE DMV OFFICE IN HILLCREST SITS ON THREE ACRES OF STATE ON LAND.

MORE THAN 60 YEARS OLD IS IN DESPERATE NEED OF AN UPDATE.

THERE HAVE LONG BEEN CALLS TO INCLUDE AFFORDABLE HOUSING.

ANDREW BOWEN BRINGS US TO THE LATEST ON WHAT LITTLE PROGRESS HAS BEEN MADE AND HOW THAT IS FRUSTRATING RESIDENTS AND THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN PRICED OUT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

>> WE HAVE A LOVELY CORDED WISH APPEAR.

IT IS ONE OF FIVE OR SIX IN THE STRETCH OF THE FEW BLOCKS.

>> Reporter: THE THING COLEY IS SHOWING ME AROUND HIS NEIGHBORHOOD OF GRANTVILLE.

>> WE HAVE FAST FOOD THERE.

SOME ODD MARKET BUILDING AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.

>> Reporter: HE LANDED HERE EIGHT YEARS AGO WAS A GRADUATE STUDENT.

THIS WAS THE NEIGHBORHOOD HE COULD AFFORD.

BUT HE IS NOT IN LOVE WITH IT.

>> THERE IS NOT A LOT TO DO AROUND HERE.

I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO BE ABLE TO WALK TO INTERESTING PLACES RATHER THAN GETTING MY CAR AND DRIVING THERE.

HILLCREST HAS A LOT OF GREAT RESTAURANTS, CAFES.

>> Reporter: HILLCREST IS POST ABOUT BORAH PARK, WHERE HE LIKES TO GO RUNNING.

IT IS THE HEART OF SAN DIEGO'S LGBTQ COMMUNITY.

SPEAKING IN A SPACE THAT IS WELCOMING AND ACCEPTING REALLY CAN CHANGE YOUR QUALITY OF LIFE.

>> Reporter: QUALITY IS NOT LIVING OFF OF A COLLEGE GRADUATE ANYMORE.

HE IS A FULL-TIME RESEARCHER THAT USD.

BUT HILLCREST IS STILL OUT OF REACH.

>> I HAVE KEPT MY EYE ON THE PRICES ON THE APARTMENTS AROUND THERE AND IT REALLY ONLY HAS GOTTEN WORSE.

>> THE DMV PROPERTY IS ONE OF THE FINEST SITES AVAILABLE FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING NOT JUST IN HILLCREST BUT THE CITY.

>> Reporter: STEPHEN RUSSELL IS AT THE SAN DIEGO HOUSING FEDERATION.

WE MEET AT THE 63- YEAR-OLD HILLCREST DMV.

THE BUILDING IS NOT VERY BIG.

THE PROPERTY IS JUST ABOUT THREE ACRES THOUGH.

MOSTLY A SURFACE PARKING LOT WITH CRUMBLING ASPHALT.

>> I THINK THEY HAVE GIVEN UP ON IT.

THEY ARE NOT EVEN DOING BASIC UPKEEP ANYMORE.

>> Reporter: HE SAYS THE PROPERTY IS SURROUNDED BY DENSE HOUSING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD NEEDS MORE OF IT FOR ALL INCOME LEVELS.

>> FOLKS WHO ARE GETTING HIGH PAID JOBS IN THE TECH SECTOR AND WANT ALL THE LIFESTYLE QUALITIES THAT HILLCREST BRINGS ARE WILLING TO PAY EVEN IF THE APARTMENT IS PERHAPS AN OLDER BUILDING.

BUT GIVEN THE CHOICE MANY TIMES THAT WOULD CHOOSE TO LIVE IN SOMETHING NEWER WITH MORE AMENITIES.

LEAVE THAT UNIT ON THE MARKET FOR SOMEONE WHO IS LOWER INCOME.

>> Reporter: THE STATE KNOWS THIS PROPERTY NEEDS REPLACEMENT.

ONE EFFORT TO BUILD A MIXED USE PROJECT FELL APART IN 2012.

THEN IN 2018 THE DMV PROPOSED A PROJECT WITH NO HOUSING AND A SEVEN FOOT TALL WROUGHT IRON FENCE AROUND THE PERIMETER.

THE PROPOSAL WAS UNIVERSALLY PANNED IN THE DMV WAS TOLD TO START OVER AND CREATE A PROJECT WITH HOUSING.

>> YOU NEED TO HAVE A DMV FACILITY SOMEWHERE IN CENTRAL SAN DIEGO.

THIS STILL MAKES SENSE FOR THAT PURPOSE.

>> Reporter: CHRIS WARD REPRESENTS HILLCREST AND HE SAID THE DMV PROMISED TO ASSESS WHAT THEY NEEDED IN A NEW FACILITY.

MANY OTHER SERVICES HAVE MOVED ONLINE SO MAYBE THEY CAN GET BY WITH A SMALLER FOOTPRINT.

BUT HE CHECKED IN LAST MONTH AND THAT ASSESSMENT IS STILL IN THE WORKS.?

I JUST DON'T FEEL A LOT HAS BEEN DONE OVER THE LAST YEAR, CERTAINLY NOT TO MY SATISFACTION.

I DO INTEND UP MY LEVELS OF COMMUNICATION REALLY PRESS THIS.

IF THIS COMES IN THE FORM OF LEGISLATION THAT NEED TO BE INTRODUCED IN JANUARY WHEN I GET BACK TO SENTIMENTAL, SO BE IT.

I HOPE WE ARE NOT GOING TO WAIT ANOTHER 5 TO 10 YEARS TO SEE THE RIGHT PROGRAM FOR THIS SITE.

I WANT TO EVENTUALLY MOVE FORWARD AND I AM HERE FOR THE STATE ASSEMBLY MEMBER FOR THIS DISTRICT TO BE ABLE TO HELP SUPPORT THE EVOLUTION OF THIS SITE AND CERTAINLY BE SOMETHING THAT IS MORE MULTIPURPOSE IN NATURE.

>> I HAD ALWAYS KIND OF HOPE THAT I COULD EVENTUALLY MAKE MY WAY OVER TO SOMEWHERE LIKE HILLCREST.

>> Reporter: G VAN COLEY SAID HE HOPES THE STATE GOVERNMENT CAN CUT THROUGH THE BUREAUCRACY GET IT DONE.

>> PEOPLE IN SAN DIEGO NEED AFFORDABLE HOUSING.

PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF SAN DIEGO WOULD LIKE TO LIVE HERE.

SO HAVING THAT SPACE AND JUST SITTING ON THAT IS REALLY UNFORTUNATE AND A MISSED OPPORTUNITY.

WOULD BE NICE IF WE COULD UTILIZE THAT IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

>>> WE ARE DEALING WITH A WARM WEATHER PATTERN HERE.

SOMETIMES IN OCTOBER THIS IS HOW WE DO IT.

WE GET THE OFFSHORE EARLY FALL BREEZE THAT DRIVES WARMTH TO THE COAST.

SO TONIGHT A LITTLE RELIEF FROM THE HEAT.

62 IN SAN DIEGO.

BUT OVERALL VERY FEW CLOUDS OUT THERE.

WE WILL DEAL WITH DRYNESS YEAR.

SO THE OFFSHORE WIND WILL DRIVE THE BUS, TAKE CABBAGES UP.

WE WILL TALK ABOUT HOW LONG IT STICKS AROUND IN MY FULL FORECAST.

>>> CHECKING BACK IN ON OUR TOP STORY.

DAY TWO OF THE HEALTHCARE WORKERS STRIKE.

MATT HOFFMAN IS LIVE A.

>> Reporter: EARLIER WE WERE SAYING HOW THERE HAVE BEEN TENTATIVE AGREEMENTS.

BUT OBVIOUSLY THESE SITES ARE DOUBTFULLY COMING TOGETHER IN AGREEMENT.

WE WANTED TO BRING BACK MICHAEL REMI, THE PRESIDENT OF LOCAL 30.

SO CAN YOU TELL US HOW THESE NEGOTIATIONS HAVE BEEN GOING TO GET THESE RESOLVED?

>> TO ANSWER PART OF THAT QUESTION WE CAN SEE, WE WOULD NOT BE DOING THIS NOW.

BUT WE ARE STILL WILLING TO TALK WITH AND BARGAIN WITH KAISER IN GOOD FAITH.

CURRENTLY AS OF YESTERDAY AT NOON TALKS HAVE BROKEN OFF.

I AM HOPEFUL THAT SOON WE WILL GET SCHEDULED ANOTHER BARGAINING SESSION.

>> Reporter: ARE THERE ANY STICKING POINTS?

>> RIGHT NOW SOME OF OUR BIGGEST ISSUES ARE STAFFING CRISIS.

OUTSOURCING AND JUST PROVIDING NECESSARY WAGES TO RECRUIT AND MAINTAIN QUALITY EMPLOYEES.

>> Reporter: YOU GUYS COULD BE OUT HERE STRIKING UNTIL SATURDAY.

ARE YOU CONFIDENT YOU COULD REACH A DEAL BY THEN THAT MEMBERSHIP WOULD ACCEPT?

>> I DON'T KNOW IF I AM CONFIDENT TO REACH A DEAL BY THEN BUT I AM HOPEFUL THAT SOONER RATHER THAN LATER KAISER WILL COME TO THE TABLE, TAKE THESE NEGOTIATIONS SERIOUSLY, AND WE CAN COME TO AN AGREEMENT THAT IS GOOD FOR EVERYONE.

WE NEED TO PROVIDE THE PATIENT'S WITH THE QUALITY CARE THEY DESERVE.

>> Reporter: WE APPRECIATE YOUR TIME HERE TODAY.

SO OBVIOUSLY, THEY WALKED AWAY FROM THE INITIAL BARGAINING TABLE BUT WE HEAR TALKS ARE STILL GOING ON AND OFF.

BUT KAISER IS COMMITTED A HIGHER 10,000 WORKERS BY THE END OF THIS YEAR.

THEY SAID THEY HAD THAT YESTERDAY.

BUT OBVIOUSLY THERE ARE STILL ISSUES AND BARRING ANY AGREEMENT BEFORE SATURDAY AT 6:00, THE UNION WILL BE BACK OUT HERE TOMORROW UNLESS A DEAL IS REACHED.

MATT HOFFMAN, KPBS NEWS.

>>> SAN DIEGO AND THE REGIONS INVESTOR OWNED UTILITY ARE GETTING ROOFTOP SOLAR IN THE HANDS THAT CAN BENEFIT MOST.

ERIK ANDERSON HAS DETAILS.

>> Reporter: SAN DIEGO GAS AND ELECTRIC SAID SHAREHOLDERS ARE DONATING $1 MILLION A YEAR TO INSTALL PANELS ON HOMES IN SOME OF THE UNDER RESOURCED NEIGHBORHOODS.

>> A LOT OF THE BENEFITS HAVE BEEN INCREDIBLE AND HAVE A HUGE IMPACT ON THE FAMILIES, IT IS RESERVED FOR FAMILIES WHO CAN AFFORD IT.

>> THE PROGRAM IS PART OF THE UTILITY'S $80 MILLION FRANCHISE AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY.

THAT DEAL GIVES SDG&E EXCLUSIVE USE OF THE CITY'S RIGHT-OF-WAY TO DELIVER GAS AND ELECTRIC SERVICE.

THE SOLAR PROGRAM AND ANOTHER 20 MILLION GRANT FOR CLIMATE EQUITY PROGRAMS.

THAT HELPED WIN COUNSEL SUPPORT.

CRITICS SAY THE UTILITY MAKES MORE THAN $1 MILLION A DAY FROM THAT FRANCHISE AGREEMENT.

>> WE CONTINUE TO BE THIS AND HEARTENED THAT THEY USE THIS PROGRAM FOR GREENWASHING, DESPITE THE TALKING POINTS.

WE BELIEVE THEIR ACTIONS SHOW THEY DON'T PRIORITIZE EQUITY OR ROOFTOP SOLAR.

>> UTILITY OFFICIALS ARE HAILING THE 36 SOLAR INSTALLATIONS THEY HAVE COMPLETED IN THE PAST YEAR AND THEY ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO FIND OUT MORE AT THE CENTER FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY WEBSITE.

>> EVERY HOME IS DIFFERENT.

WE DO NOT WANT TO BE ONE TO ASSUME IT WILL NOT WORK FOR THEM.

WE REALLY WANT TO MAKE THE PROCESS SMOOTH.

IF YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A ONE-STOP SHOP, OR HOW TO CONNECT WITH SOMEONE WHO CAN GET INFORMATION TO YOU.

>> Reporter: THE HOPE IS THAT WILL BE UP TO 300 OF THE SYSTEMS AND THAT WILL BE IN NINE YEARS.

>>> HOW THE FIGHT FOR THE SPEAKERSHIP IN THE U.S. HOUSE IS PUTTING UKRAINE FUNDING AT RISK.

THAT IS COMING UP AT 7:00 AFTER EVENING ADDITION ON KPBS.

>>> A MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR THE LATE SENATOR, DIANE FEINSTEIN WAS HELD AT SAN FRANCISCO CITY HALL TODAY.

THAT IS WHERE SHE HAS BEEN LYING IN STATE WITH HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE LINING UP TO PAY THEIR RESPECTS.

FEINSTEIN WAS THE FIRST FEMALE MAYOR OF SAN FRANCISCO BEFORE LATER SERVING IN THE U.S. SENATE FOR MORE THAN 30 YEARS.

VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS WAS AMONG THOSE WHO SPOKE ABOUT FEINSTEIN STROBE BRAZING LEGACY.

>> THE WOMEN OF AMERICA HAVE COME A LONG WAY.

OUR COUNTRY HAS COME A LONG WAY.

YOU HAVE HELPED MOVE THE BALL FORWARD AND OUR NATION SALUTES YOU, DIANE.

>>> CHUCK SCHUMER AND FORMER HOUSE SPEAKER NANCY PELOSI ALSO SPOKE AT THE CEREMONY.

>>> AS THE CRISIS OVERWHELMS SHELTERS AND CITIES WITH THE SOUTHERN BORDER, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS WAIVING DOZENS OF LAWS TO ALLOW FOR ADDITIONAL WALL CONSTRUCTION IN TEXAS.

>> Reporter: HUNDREDS OF MIGRANTS CAUGHT ON CAMERA RUSHING PAST MEXICAN AUTHORITIES .

>> AS LONG AS THE U.S. CONTINUES TO ALLOW PASSAGE TO FAMILIES IT IS A CALL FOR MORE MIGRANTS TO COME.

>> Reporter: DAYS AFTER GREG ABBOTT RAMPED UP HIS BUSING OPERATION, NEW YORK CITY OFFICIALS SAY THEY ARE RECORDING SIGNIFICANT INCREASES IN THE NUMBER OF MIGRANTS ARRIVING.

THE MAYOR IS ON A FOUR-DAY TRIP TO LATIN AMERICA WHERE HE IS EXPECTED TO TRY TO PERSUADE MY DIDN'T DON'T COME.

>> THE CHALLENGES WE ARE FACING SO PEOPLE CAN MANAGE THEIR EXPECTATIONS.

>> Reporter: WITH BUSLOADS ARRIVING IN CHICAGO, THE MAYOR SAID HE WILL MAKE A TRIP TO THE BORDER TO WITNESS THE CRISIS FIRSTHAND.

>> THE FAILURE OF A FEDERAL POLICY IS NOW IMPACTING THE PEOPLE OF CHICAGO IN A VERY DRAMATIC WAY.

>> Reporter: CITING ILLEGAL ENTRY, THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION WILL WAIVE 26 LAWS TO BUILD AREAS BY THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY.

>> I AM TRYING TO GET THEM TO GET THE MONEY.

THEY WOULDN'T.

IN THE MEANTIME THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE LAW OTHER THAN THEY HAVE TO USE THE MONEY FOR WHAT WE SAID.

I CAN'T STOP IT.

>>> MEXICO'S PRESIDENT SAID THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW BORDER WALL IS A REGRESSION THAT WILL NOT RESOLVE THE IMMIGRATION PROBLEM.

HE SAID JOE BIDEN WILL ALWAYS HAVE HIS SUPPORT AND NOTED HE IS THE ONLY U.S. PRESIDENT WHO, UNTIL NOW, HAS NOT BUILT A SECTION OF THE WALL.

>>> IT IS NATIONAL DEPRESSION SCREENING DAY.

NEW RESEARCH IS SHINING A LIGHT ON THE IMPORTANCE OF DIAGNOSING THIS MENTAL HEALTH CONDITION.

AND HOW EFFECTIVE SCREENING CAN HELP IDENTIFY THOSE AT RISK OF SUICIDE.

MANDY GAITHER HAS A LOOK AT THE STUDY AND HOW IT COULD CHANGE HOW DOCTORS LOOK AT SUICIDE PREVENTION.

>> Reporter: IT IS ONE OF THE LEADING CAUSES OF DEATH IN THE U.S. MORE PEOPLE DIE FROM SUICIDE LAST YEAR THAN ANY OTHER YEAR ON RECORD, ACCORDING TO PROVISIONAL DATA.

>> ONE OF THE KEY ASPECTS OF VENTING SUICIDE IS BEING ABLE TO IDENTIFY INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE MOST WONDERFUL TO ATTEMPTING SUICIDE.

>> Reporter: THAT IS WHY CRAIG BRIAN AND HIS COLLEAGUES AT THE OHIO STATE COLLEGE OF MEDICINE STARTED STUDYING PATIENT SCREENING AT PRIMARY CARE CLINICS.

THEY BELIEVE TRADITIONAL SCREENING WOULD BE MOST EFFECTIVE IN IDENTIFYING WHICH PATIENTS WERE MOST LIKELY TO ATTEMPT SUICIDE.

THAT WAS HIM UP AND DOWN.

>> THE KEY FINDING WAS THAT THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY TO IDENTIFY PATIENTS WHO WOULD EVENTUALLY ATTEMPT SUICIDE WAS TO SCREEN THEM FOR DEPRESSION.

>> Reporter: THEY FOUND SCREENING FOR DEPRESSION CORRECTLY IDENTIFIED MORE PATIENTS WHO WOULD GO ON TO ATTEMPT SUICIDE THAN TRADITIONAL SUICIDE SCREENING.

>> HEALTHCARE PROVIDERS SHOULD REALLY BE FOCUSING ON IDENTIFYING PATIENTS WHO HAVE DEPRESSION, AND THAT MIGHT SERVE AS A GATEWAY FOR DETERMINING WHO MIGHT BE NEEDING AN ADDITIONAL TREATMENT OR INTERVENTION.

>>> WE ARE RUNNING VERY WARM IF NOT HOT ACROSS THE REGION.

A HEAT ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7:00 FRIDAY.

FRIDAY WILL BE A SMIDGE HOTTER THAN THURSDAY WAS.

THE PEAK OF THE HEAT IS COMING VERY SOON.

IT HAS BEEN BREEZY, ESPECIALLY THE CANYONS AND PASSES.

THE WIND WILL BACK OFF BUT THERE WAS ENOUGH OF AN OFFSHORE BREEZE TO TAKE THE HEAT UP THE COAST.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE RUNNING 10 TO 20 DEGREES ABOVE THE HISTORICAL AVERAGES.

SOME AREAS FURTHER NORTH WILL BE CLOSE TO DAILY RECORD HIGHS.

HERE WE CAN SEE WE ARE DEALING WITH A HEAT ADVISORY INTO RAMONA AND ALPINE.

SO INLAND IS DEALING WITH THE MOST SIGNIFICANT HEAT AND ALSO THE DESERTS OBVIOUSLY.

THE STANDARDS ARE LITTLE LOWER INLAND FROM THE COAST.

NOT A WHOLE LOT OF CLOUD COVER WITH HIS CURRENT SETUP.

THE OFFSHORE WIND MINIMIZING SOME OF THE COASTAL FOG AT LEAST FOR AREAS LIKE SAN DIEGO.

EL CAJON, 95 DEGREES.

IF YOU WANT TO ESCAPE THE HEAT, GO INTO THE WATER OR GO TO THE MOUNTAINS.

MOUNT LAGUNA, 68 DEGREES.

THERE WILL BE BIG CHANGES COMING AND WE WILL FIND NICE RELIEF.

SO 84 ON FRIDAY FOR THE COAST.

WE WILL SHAVE 10 DEGREES OFF ON TUESDAY.

THE INLAND AREAS WHERE THERE ARE THOSE HEAT ADVISORIES, 94.

HOT WEATHER OUT THERE.

A FEW CLOUDS BUT MORE SON THAN ANYTHING ELSE.

THEN WE DROP DOWN TO A HIGH OF 81 COME TUESDAY.

IN THE MOUNTAINS IT IS A LITTLE BREEZY.

THE BREEZE WILL PICK UP AGAIN AT THE END OF THE FORECAST COME TUESDAY.

BUT IN THE MEANTIME IT IS A PRETTY WARM TIME.

UPPER 60s.

YOU WILL FEEL IT IF YOU ARE DOING SERIOUS HIKING.

WE WILL DROP DOWN TO 59 DEGREES IN THE MOUNTAINS COME TUESDAY.

THIS IS WHERE THE HEAT IS PRETTY PRONOUNCED IN THE DESERT.

99, FLIRTING WITH 100 OVER THE NEXT TWO AFTERNOONS.

WE FIND SOME RELIEF ON TUESDAY.
