AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Workplace Safety in Hospitals: Hospital workers in multiple states are striking over worker violence and staffing shortages, with nurses describing assaults like biting and pushing and calling for safer conditions. Maternal Mental Health: In the Lindsay Clancy murder trial, supporters rallied in pink outside a Massachusetts courthouse, arguing she needed care for postpartum psychosis and was failed by the mental health system. Public Health—Mosquitoes: RIDOH and DEM confirmed additional West Nile Virus detections in East Providence, Pawtucket, and Providence, keeping the statewide risk level high and urging mosquito-bite prevention. Local Water Safety: RIDOH/DEM lifted the advisory to avoid recreation at Wenscott Reservoir after a blue-green algae bloom cleared and testing found low algae levels with no toxins. Nutrition & Cancer Research: URI nursing researchers are launching the B-SMART study to understand how clinicians discuss alcohol and breast cancer risk with patients. Health & Mobility: A Rhode Island survey finds many residents want safer places to walk, bike, and exercise, citing gaps in protected bike lanes, sidewalks, and nearby transit. Community Health Education: Rhode Island’s spotted lanternfly guidance urges residents to report and remove egg masses to reduce the invasive pest’s spread.
