Benjamin Franklin’s oft-quoted line “in this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes” is only partly true. There is one more certainty—change. As much as we resist or ignore, it is ultimately inevitable. This is true at Mt. Grant General as well. For decades, emergency department providers worked directly for […]

Good news. It has been almost two years since Sierra Eye Associates stopped performing exams and minor procedures at Mt. Grant General, requiring patients to make the trip to Reno for such services. That could change in the near future. Dr. Robert Wolff, Ophthalmologist, associated with Sierra Nevada Eye Center in Carson City will be […]

This year will be memorable for a number of reasons (mostly bad) but staff at Mt. Grant General have tried to make the best of the COVID-19 world we now live in: whether we like it or not, agree or disagree with drastic measures in place, hope for a quick end to this or see […]

A medical provider recently confided in me that he didn’t give coronavirus much thought when it gained national attention last winter; considered it just another type of flu that would vanish in spring. He attributed all the alarm and panic over the disease to media hype and misinformation. Of course, he was not alone in […]

Who should wear a mask in public? No desire to wade into the politics associated with mask-wearing these days but cannot emphasize enough the importance for all hospital staff, outpatients and clinic visitors to wear a mask. The horror stories occurring at nursing homes and VA hospitals are all too real, where residents and patients […]

Now that Mineral County has its first confirmed case of COVID-19, I trust everyone has adjusted to the current reality of our daily lives (the “new normal”). My weekly visit to Safeway, stops at the post office, and the occasional trip to the hardware store indicate most locals are doing their part to make this […]
