Glenn Medical Center Update
For weeks, Glenn County residents have had to travel dozens of miles to get medical care after the only local hospital, Glenn Medical Center, was forced to close. A federal decision to revoke the hospital’s critical access designation resulted in funding cuts that made operations unsustainable. Now, Representative Doug LaMalfa and Senator Adam Schiff have introduced new legislation that aims to restore funding to Glenn Medical Center and help other rural hospitals facing similar situations. CalMatters Health Reporter Ana B. Ibarra joins Insight to talk about what these bills would do, and why the road to reopen Glenn medical could be long and costly.

CalMatters is a nonprofit newsroom that partners with public media stations across the state.

Dwayne and Edison's Eggery

We’ll meet Joseph Reedy, the founder of Dwayne and Edison’s Eggery, a small farm in Sacramento doing big things for the community. They recently launched Neighbor’s Nest, a program to provide snacks for families with food insecurity in collaboration with Alchemist CDC.
