Sepsis can be hard to spot in children because the symptoms can look like common childhood illnesses.

Each year, more than 75,000 children in the U.S. develop severe sepsis, and it remains a leading cause of death in children worldwide. Knowing the signs can help you tell when something is more serious. Watch for these 8 signs of pediatric sepsis.

If you notice these signs, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room right away. Do not wait to see if it gets better.

Acting quickly can save a life.

We’re having loads of fun this National Laundry Day! 🧺

Meet Victor, our Laundry Coordinator, and Christopher, our Laundry & Linen Aide. Victor has been keeping things on cycle in our linen department since 1987, with Christopher joining the team in 2014.

On any given day, they manage over 1,700 pounds, which adds up to more than 12,500 each week and over 52,000 each month. Linens are cleaned off-site and charged by the pound, so keeping everything organized and accounted for is key. They also manage about 140 scrubs each weekday.

A big thank you to Victor and Christopher! 👏

Check for the pink dot 👀

Did you know your California driver’s license can show if you are a registered organ donor? It may be small, but that dot means something big. More than 100,000 people are waiting for a transplant, and one donor can save up to 8 lives.

This Donate Life Month, take a moment to check your ID for the pink dot. If you do not see it, you can register or update your status in just a few minutes at https://registerme.org/

We had a tee-rific time at the 21st Annual Sierra View Golf Classic at River Island Country Club! ⛳

With more than 115 golfers and 28 sponsors, this year’s tournament was a hole-in-one for local health care. Proceeds will help fund a new echocardiogram machine, supporting earlier diagnosis, heart health monitoring, and cancer care for our community.

Thank you to everyone who joined the Sierra View Foundation, sponsored the event, or supported the raffle. We couldn’t have done it without you! 👏

Parking Update at our Medical Office Building🚧

Starting tomorrow, April 14, the main parking lot at our Medical Office Building (263 Pearson Drive) will be closed for two and a half weeks for parking lot improvements.

Patient parking will be in a nearby lot behind Sierra Valley Dialysis Center, which means a longer walk to the Medical Office Building main entrance. A drop-off area behind the Medical Office Building will be available for patient convenience. Patients will still need to walk around to the front entrance.

Please plan ahead and allow extra time before your visit. We understand this may be inconvenient and appreciate your patience as we work to improve parking for our community.

Some things run in the family

This National Siblings Day, we’re celebrating just some of the siblings who work together at Sierra View Medical Center, bringing teamwork and connection to every shift.

⭐ Leo, mid-level provider, and his brother Erik, RN, both in the Emergency Department
⭐ Lanise, Charge Nurse, and Denise, Registered Nurse, both in the Emergency Department

Working alongside family brings a special kind of trust and support. They show us that caring for others can be a shared path.
