November is !

Small changes add up in a big way. This week, we’re highlighting simple “healthy swaps” inspired by the American Diabetes Association—easy ideas you can use at home to make your favorite meals a little lighter and a lot more nourishing.

A note from our Diabetes Educator, Ashley Borth, BSN, RN, PHN:
“Trying healthier substitutions in your everyday recipes is a great first step. Over time, you’ll discover what fits your routine, your tastes, and your goals. Remember—every positive change, no matter how small, moves you in the right direction.”

These swaps aren’t just for those managing diabetes. They’re great for anyone looking to feel better, eat well, and support long-term health.

On Wednesday evening, SEMC hosted an Active Threat Tabletop Exercise with staff from across the organization. Together, we walked through a detailed scenario, reviewed our policies and procedures, and discussed potential courses of action, safety protocols, and continuity of operations.

A special thank-you to Sleepy Eye Police Chief Matt Andres for joining us and to Lori Neidecker, our Emergency Operations Manager, for coordinating and facilitating the exercise.

It was an insightful and productive session, and we will continue these conversations as we refine and strengthen our response plans. The safety of our patients, visitors, and staff remains one of our highest priorities.

We want our patients and community to be aware of a change affecting the Allina Aetna Medicare Advantage Plan in 2026.

This specific plan has chosen not to include Sleepy Eye Medical Center and Clinics in its network next year.

“We want to ensure our patients and community members are aware of this change during Medicare’s open enrollment period,” said Todd Consbruck, Administrator at SEMC. “Although this decision was made by Allina Aetna, our priority is helping patients understand their options and support them through this change.”

Several other Medicare plan options for 2026 do include SEMC and Clinics. For questions about coverage or plan choices, we encourage individuals to contact the Senior LinkAge Line® at 1-800-333-2433 or speak with their insurance agent. These resources can help patients understand available plans and choose the coverage that best meets their needs.

Beginning January 1, 2026, Sleepy Eye Medical Center (SEMC) and Clinics will no longer be part of the Allina Aetna Advantage Plan provider network. This
