National Rural Health Day has been a staple for over a decade and celebrating the Power of Rural is more important than ever. Every year, since 2011, the National Organization of State Offices of Rural Health sets aside the third Thursday of November to celebrate rural health across the country. This year, the Center for Rural Health (CRH) invites you to join us in celebrating this national movement.

What is National Rural Health Day?
National Rural Health Day is an opportunity to celebrate the power of rural by honoring the selfless, community-minded spirit that prevails in rural America. This day not only showcases the efforts and innovations of rural healthcare but also ensures that rural healthcare providers know how valued they are to their communities, to their state, and to the country.

We challenge North Dakota healthcare organizations and facilities to find a way to celebrate and show your support for National Rural Health Day on November 20. If you share anything on social media, use to join in with the thousands of others who will also be celebrating rural health.

One way to celebrate is by completing the color page attached to the post. You can keep it, hang it up at your school, or even give it to someone you know who works in rural health care. You can also submit it for a coloring contest.

Pages can be submitted two ways:
1 - Scan and email to holly.long@UND.edu
2 - Mail:

Who says our staff can't have fun?! You may see some of The Golden Girls, the "boss" of the hospital, the Boo Boo crew, festive nurses, or some of our student nurses creeping around the halls today.

Have a happy and safe Halloween, everyone!

For those that will be out on Friday for Halloween fun, remember to stay safe by following these guidelines from Safe Kids Worldwide.

If you will out between 3-6pm, make sure to check out the Downtown Trick or Treat! Our staff will have a trunk or treat along with several other local sponsors to provide even more fun than the 42 stops in downtown Devils Lake.

Earlier this week, 7 of our emergency room nurses attended the North Dakota Statewide Trauma Conference in Minot.

Our very own Jaydon Grafsgaard, NP was called up to discuss a case study with Dr. Derek Kane, Trauma Medical Director of CHI St. Alexius Bismarck. What a great opportunity for Jaydon!

Yesterday, nurses Andrea and Taylor along with our CRNA Jeff placed a picc line, the first outpatient to receive one since our training from CVC Healthcare last month!

Thomas Robertson Jr. and his wife (not pictured) were thrilled to receive this service close to home instead of driving several miles to and from a major hospital.

On September 20th, members of our staff participated in the Out of the Darkness walk sponsored by the Su***de Prevention Coalition.

September is Su***de Awareness Month. As one of the leading causes of death in the United States, it is an ongoing effort to bring awareness to communities and raise money when possible. North Dakota had 142 su***de deaths in 2023, ranking us 19th by the age-adjusted death rate (number of deaths per 100,000 total population).**

CHI St. Alexius Health Devils Lake works very closely with the Devils Lake Human Service Center when it comes to patients experiencing mental health crises. They have someone available 24/7 when a situation arises. The North Dakota Su***de Prevention Coalition is full of resources available, including help for those who are struggling, someone you love is struggling, or you have lost someone to su***de. Visit https://ow.ly/9tbG50X2qNZ for information.

If you find yourself in a situation of a mental crisis, there is help available. 988 is a national support line anyone can call, chat, or text when in need. 211 and 911 are also available to connect you to the right person.

You matter.

Our CHW, Ashley Roulette, goes above and beyond with having a community closet here at the hospital for patients in need. Items in the closet are strictly from donations and grant-funded opportunities, but we are running on fumes for these items right now.

Some helpful information:
-Formula can be any size and any variation of Similac (regular 'blue can', sensitive, soy, alimentum, pure bliss) as long as it is unopened.
-Other items can be new or gently used. If it can be washed in unscented laundry detergent, that would help prevent any possible allergies for people
-Items can be dropped off sooner than October 13th if you are able or needing to do that!

If you are willing or able to donate any of the listed items, please reach out to Ashley via her contact info on the flyer attached to this post. Items brought outside of typical business hours (after 5pm M-F or the weekend) can be taken to the registration desk.

We have some serious 📚education happening at the Devils Lake Hospital! 🧑‍🏫🎓

In addition to our phenomenal equipment received through the Helmsley Trust Foundation Grant, we have had a number of nurses and mid-level providers learn about ultrasound guided peripheral intravenous (UGPIV) access. This allows our team to provide additional services right here to our patients in the Lake Region for various with medications needs, advanced vascular access, and increased accuracy for difficult IV starts.

Five of our nurses trained in picc and mid line placement to form our vascular access team. They will be meeting regularly to stay up-to-date on evidence-based practices, research studies, and protocols. This will be the foundation to provide vascular access for the Devils Lake Hospital.

Three mid-level providers trained on central line insertion. By learning this technique and very hands-on training, these providers will be able to address additional needs of patients in critical condition that require higher risk emergent stabilizing medications.

14 additional nurses were able to participate in the USPIV placement education, which reduces additional pokes for difficult IV starts and increase the accuracy rates for getting difficult sticks on the first attempt.

Our staff are hard at work to ensure we can offer the best care right here in Devils Lake. 👍

August 25 - 29th marks Community Health Worker (CHW) Appreciation Week! 🎉

As we learned earlier this week, there are 5 main drivers in the screenings that prompt a CHW to reach out to patients in the hospital. Once they are able to meet with them or set up a booth at various health fairs, there are many ways for them to advance health equity. Just a few of them are listed here.

August 25 - 29th marks Community Health Worker (CHW) Appreciation Week! 🎉

Often times, it's tough to understand just what a CHW does and what sets them apart for some other roles such as a case manager or social worker.
