AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Behavioral Health: Alaska agencies are using the Crisis NOW model to connect people in mental-health or substance-use crises with care, rather than defaulting to the emergency room or jail. Flu Season: Flu cases are picking up earlier than usual in Alaska. Veterans’ Care: The Alaska VA is set to switch to a new federal electronic health record system Oct. 24; it is mailing information to 23,000 enrolled veterans, including those in remote areas with limited connectivity. Rural Health Access: Unalaska’s free, round-the-clock wellness vending machine offers naloxone, fentanyl and xylazine test kits, and emergency contraception. Similar machines are now in communities across Alaska. Road Safety: A fatal Parks Highway crash near Trapper Creek underscores how distance from hospitals can complicate emergency response; the couple’s toddler survived. Halloween Safety: Alaska nurses advise drivers and trick-or-treaters to take extra care in dark neighborhoods, where sidewalks and streetlights may be scarce.
