Telehealth in Limbo. Telehealth remains broadly popular among Members of Congress and the Administration, but unfortunately, the telehealth flexibilities that began during the COVID-19 public health emergency expired at the end of September. The U.S. House of Representatives-passed legislation, which would have kept the government open, included an extension of the telehealth provisions, and we expect an extension to pass as part of the negotiations to reopen the government. As ANA reported last week, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services continue to hold all telehealth claims with some exceptions for behavioral health, which is in line with current law. ANA strongly advocates for extension of these flexibilities and for Congress to make them permanent.

Nurse Su***de is Real

Losing a loved one, friend, or co-worker to su***de changes the way we look at the world. Frequently, we look for answers, and we find myths that can cause pain and sometimes guilt and shame. Nurses are at higher risk of su***de than the general population. Ironically, one of the key risks is related to being a nurse.

It is important to recognize that no one can know someone is considering su***de unless that person tells us they are. Following a su***de, others may think about su***de in ways they never have. Find ways to talk about your grief with people you trust.

If you need more support, there are resources available. You can call or text 988 or chat with chat.988lifeline.org to talk to counselors who are trained to support people facing mental health struggles or emotional distress – even if you just need someone to talk to. For more information about the myths surrounding su***de, and the truths we’ve learned through research, visit Su***deMyths.org. ISNA is dedicated to supporting nurses and their mental health.

Lactation After Loss Program Available Statewide

October is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, which is a time to recognize and help families who have experienced loss. The Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) Lactation after Loss Program is now available statewide to support grieving families who have experienced miscarriages, stillbirths or infant deaths. The program offers tools for the grieving mother to make an informed decision about what to do regarding her milk supply.

“The Lactation after Loss Program empowers families with knowledge about what to expect after experiencing such tragedy,” said State Health Commissioner Lindsay Weaver, M.D., FACEP. “By offering compassionate resources, we aim to foster understanding and support for bereaved mothers during an often overlooked part of their healing journey.”

To request a pump kit or learn more about the Lactation after Loss program, please email IDOHFIMR@health.in.gov or visit https://www.in.gov/health/safesleep/lactation-after-loss/. Visit The Milk Bank's website for more information on its Bereavement Program.
