Sepsis can happen from an infection and become life-threatening very quickly. Knowing the signs and seeking care early can save lives. "If an infection gets worse, don't wait. Early treatment can make all the difference," says Alexis Stanek, RN. Fever, chills, confusion, rapid breathing, or a racing heart are signs to seek medical care right away. "Trust your instincts. If something doesn't feel right, get it checked out," she adds.#SepsisAwarenessMonth #RuralHealthCare #CommunityMatters ... See MoreSee Less
Happy first day of fall! Time to take in the colors, crisp air, and great trails. If hiking leaves you with persistent heel pain, arch pain, numbness, tingling, or swelling, don't just "walk it off." These can be signs of an underlying foot or ankle condition that may be treatable. Your feet shouldn't hurt every time you go for a walk. Talk to your provider, or ask to see Dr. Joseph Rundell, podiatrist at The Richland Hospital and Clinics. He may have answers you need to put you back on the right path. We want you to enjoy the trails and listen to your feet. #FallHiking #Podiatry #RuralHealthCare ... See MoreSee Less
Orthopedic care, close to home? Yes! We had an employee open house last week to give the staff a chance to learn more about Dr. Austin Ewart, our new orthopedic surgeon. This Iowa native originally thought he'd follow his father and grandfather's footsteps and become an engineer. But his AP Anatomy class helped him the human body as a complex machine. "I can work with my hands to fix it," he said. Dr. Ewart began his health care journey as a surgical tech, where he really became fascinated by the operating room. "Seeing people get up soon after surgery and start walking is so rewarding. We are giving patients their freedom back," he said. If you're living with pain and considering surgery, we encourage you to have a conversation with Dr. Austin Ewart. "I like having the chance to tell people exactly what we can do to make things better." Call us at 608.647.6321.#OrthopedicSurgery #RuralHealthCare #HealthCareHome ... See MoreSee Less
