Hoover Pharmacy’s files were acquired by CVS and all patients will now receive dispensing service at their local Palo Alto branch.

“Andre and his team were instrumental in driving value for our pharmacy and securing the ideal buyer to meet our specific sale criteria. His reliable and consistent guidance allowed us to focus on maintaining operations throughout the transaction while introducing a buyer that would faithfully continue our legacy of care with our patients across the bay area”, Jonathan Han, COO of Hoover Pharmacy.

Total Care's monthly mock codes paid off in a real code blue

Total Care's monthly mock codes paid off in a real code blue

Total Care runs a monthly mock code at each of its freestanding Metroplex emergency rooms, trains BLS, ACLS and PALS in house at no cost to staff, and plans to seek ANCC accreditation so its classes count toward the 20 contact hours Texas requires of nurses. Its ER clinical director credits the drills for a recent code blue the team ran flawlessly.

  • 01Every Total Care emergency room in the Metroplex now runs a mock code every month, and a physician credited the drills in a text after a recent real code blue.
  • 02ANCC accreditation, which Total Care is pursuing so its classes count toward nurses' licenses, carries a $4,950 first-time application fee under the schedule effective January 1, 2026, and requires at least six months of compliance before an organization can apply.
  • 03A study in an American Heart Association journal found that top hospitals for cardiac arrest survival practiced on a fixed schedule and had responsive leadership, and that the near-universal availability of BLS and ACLS training is unlikely to be sufficient on its own.

Why young children die from local anesthetic overdoses in dental offices

Why young children die from local anesthetic overdoses in dental offices

Dentist anesthesiologists Stanley Malamed and Jason Brady told HealthFirst's Health First Talks podcast that fatal local anesthetic overdoses in young dental patients follow a chain of small errors: one-visit treatment plans, plain 3% mepivacaine, four quadrants injected at once and adult cartridges. Oral Health Group estimates LAST at 0.27 cases per 1,000 administrations. Brady caps his anesthetic tray at 90% of the maximum recommended dose.

  • 01Plain 3% mepivacaine is a sound one-quadrant drug for a child; beyond one quadrant, Malamed says epinephrine must be in the cartridge because it holds the drug in the nerve and keeps blood levels down.
  • 02Oral Health Group estimates LAST at about 0.27 cases per 1,000 local anesthetic administrations and reports cardiac signs come before any nervous system warning in about 20% of atypical cases.
  • 03Brady preps a tray holding 90% of the patient's calculated maximum recommended dose so a distracted operator cannot reach past it mid-case.

Suki raises $90M to take its AI scribe beyond note-taking

Suki raises $90M to take its AI scribe beyond note-taking

The funding backs a bet that scribes become clinicians' main AI interface, which changes how health systems evaluate them.

  • 01An ambient scribe already holds the patient context from the visit, and in early testing that context drove clinicians to prefer context-aware UpToDate answers 83% of the time.
  • 02Once a scribe starts answering clinical questions, note accuracy stops being enough to judge it. Regenstrief and Suki are building a framework that could add standardized metrics for answers too.
