GMH Health IT Funding Fight: Two bills are set for debate over Guam’s Section 30 funds—one would fund $100 monthly energy credits for three months, while another would create a Simon Sanchez High School modernization fund; Gov. Lou Leon Guerrero’s separate Bill 1 (11-S) would send $15.8M to Guam Memorial Hospital Authority for a modern electronic health record system, plus $4M to UOG for a Blue Economy Innovation Center. Hospital Safety Spotlight: A recent recall of GMH’s condition assessment highlights major facility and life-safety concerns, including electrical “single point of failure” risks tied to patient power during outages. Local Care Workforce: The Guam Board of Medical Examiners approved two new physician license applications—pathologist Dr. Chase Hwang (working with GMH) and internal medicine doctor Dr. Cortney Rosser (with minor application corrections required). Maternal & Child Health: Free prenatal and childbirth workshops are planned for Oct. 6 and Oct. 8 at the Northern Region Community Health Center, and Guam Head Start received about $1.01M in supplemental federal funding to strengthen nutrition and services. Nutrition & Safety Alerts: DPHSS issued a recall for select So Delicious Dairy Free Salted Caramel non-dairy frozen dessert pints due to possible choking or mouth injury from hard foreign materials. Mental Health & Prevention: UOG Press will premiere “One Kind Word” in October to spotlight suicide loss and prevention, while “Write Beside Her” invites NICU mothers to a creative workshop supporting GMH’s NICU book drive. Community Health Education: Guam is also rolling out more wellness-focused youth prevention efforts, including a “Be Tough, Don’t Puff!” mural campaign aimed at reducing vaping and underage cannabis use.
