If you live with diabetes, youโ€™ve likely heard about A1C: your average blood sugar over the past few months. But another key tool is Time in Range (TIR), which tracks how often your blood sugar stays within your target range (typically 70โ€“180 mg/dL).

Using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), TIR gives you real-time insight into how meals, exercise, and medication affect your blood sugarโ€”helping you make small changes that can make a big difference.

Why it matters:
-Staying in range more often can improve daily energy and reduce highs and lows.
-Over time, it helps lower the risk of complications like nerve, kidney, and eye problems.

Most people aim to stay in range at least 70% of the time, but your target may vary. Talk with your healthcare provider to learn how tracking TIR can complement your A1C and support better diabetes management.

This week, weโ€™re proud to recognize Dr. Adajar for his exceptional dedication to patient care. Specializing in Adult-Gerontology, Dr. Adajar goes above and beyond to ensure each patient feels supported and well-informed.

He takes the time to clearly explain the purpose of every test, helping patients understand their health and the value of their results. Above all, Dr. Adajar prioritizes patient autonomy, ensuring every individual remains at the center of their care journey.

This review is just one example of how your care affects our community. Thank you, Dr. Adajar!

This week at HGH we are celebrating all of our Nurse Practitioners.

They are Yolanda Gardner, Tina Carbone, Tiffani Laird, Kyle Kelly, Echo Mathews, Kristin Pointon, Angela Waller, David Fielder, Janice Schorr, and Sean Elder.

Nurse Practitioners truly do a little bit of everything: from diagnosing and treating illnesses to providing compassionate, patient-centered care. With a wide range of specialties, our NPs bring their skill and expertise to every corner of our hospital.

Youโ€™ll find them everywhere, from the Walk-In Clinic to our Orthopedic offices, making a difference every single day through dedication, knowledge, and kindness.

Thank you to all of our Nurse Practitioners for the exceptional care you provide to our patients and community!

Fall is nearing an end and with that means the turn of a new season. However, that does not mean the end of pumpkin season! Today we pull a recipe out of our early 2000s staff cookbook, Virginia Donahueโ€™s "Pumkin" Bars with Cream Cheese Frosting are a sure cozy snack to send off Autum with a warm goodbye.

These soft, flavorful bars bring together the goodness of pumpkin and aromatic spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. Reminding us that simple seasonal treats can bring a touch of joy to our day.

Pumpkin isnโ€™t just tasty; itโ€™s also packed with nutrients that support overall wellness, including vitamin A for healthy vision and immune function, and fiber to promote digestive health. Topped with a smooth, lightly sweet cream cheese frosting, this recipe is a delightful balance of flavor and comfort!

Today at Humboldt General Hospital, weโ€™re celebrating the simple yet powerful act of kindness. A small gesture that can make a big difference in someoneโ€™s day.

Whether itโ€™s offering a smile, lending a helping hand, or showing compassion to a coworker, patient, or stranger, kindness has the power to heal, connect, and inspire. In healthcare, we see every day how empathy and understanding can brighten the toughest moments and strengthen our community.

Letโ€™s take time today and every day to spread kindness wherever we go. Because kindness is contagious, and together, we can make the world (and our hospital) a warmer, more caring place for everyone.

Yesterday, we were honored to host our local veterans for a special Veterans Day lunch here at Humboldt General Hospital. It was a privilege to share a meal and express our gratitude to the brave men and women who have served our country with courage, dedication, and sacrifice.

Throughout the lunch, HGH also held a raffle for a genuine leather jacket. That would be custom designed to represent the winnerโ€™s branch of service and tailored to their size. The winner of that raffle is: Anthony Vedis. Congratulations!

To all the veterans in our community from all of us at HGH: your service and commitment continue to inspire us every day. Thank you for your bravery, your strength, and your enduring contributions to our nation and community.

These nurses play a vital role in ensuring every procedure runs safely and smoothly. From preparing patients for surgery to monitoring them in recovery, their attention to detail, calm under pressure, and compassionate care make all the difference.

At Humboldt General Hospital, our perioperative team goes above and beyond to provide comfort and confidence to every patient who walks through our doors.

Thank you to our perioperative nurses for your expertise, dedication, and commitment to excellence. You help make every surgery a success!

National Lung Cancer Screening Day not only raises awareness for lung cancer screening, but opens up screening facilities nationwide on a Saturday, allowing more people to get screened.

Lung cancer is the #1 leading cause of cancer in Nevada, and at least 1,800 Nevadans will be diagnosed this year. All it takes is a 30-minute screening.

If youโ€™re age 50-80 and currently smoke or used to smoke in the last 15 years, ask your doctor if you are eligible for lung cancer screening

HGH will be holding lung screenings November 8th from 8:00a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Ask your doctor for a referral
