SANTA FE, N.M. (KRQE) – Santa Fe Mayor Alan Webber is touting the success he's seeing in addressing homelessness. Mayor Webber said a microcommunity was established at Christ Lutheran church, and houses 10 people. On-site, there are hygiene stations, individual rooms, and 24-hour staffing. 'When we no longer talk about the homeless because there is no such thing as the homeless. There's individuals, each of whom has a different story, a different need, a different reason for being unhoused, and we need to treat everyone as an individual, so they get the kind of option for a

In 2019, Santa Fe joined a coalition called Built for Zero, which is a national movement where city officials try to build enough housing for their homeless population so that zero people are left without homes. A unique way they continue to address homelessness is by learning the names and history of the city's homeless population. 'When you know their names, you work with them individually to get the solution that fits their needs,' said Mayor Webber.
The city is looking for more properties to implement micro-communities.

Innovations and Trends in the Global Telestroke Services

Telestroke services are a form of telemedicine that links stroke experts with patients and other healthcare providers in remote or underserved areas through real-time audio-visual technologies. Telestroke services markets are expanding as a result of increasing stroke cases, the use of telemedicine, technological improvements, government initiatives, and the demand for remote care in underserved communities. Key Growth Drivers and Opportunities Integration with Wearable Technology and Remote Monitoring: The future of telestroke may further harness wearable technologies and remote monitoring devices to detect an early onset of stroke. The wearable technology would monitor the biometrics of the user and warn both the user and the Telemedicine Providers against possible stroke manifestations. Early intervention once the first onset of symptoms appear can save lives and reduce the severity of stroke-related complications. Challenges Telestroke faces several limitations. Perhaps the main one is the need for a stable internet connection, which can be hard to come by in rural areas. Specialist staff are also needed to ensure the systems are operated correctly and the information interpreted correctly. Issues concerning data privacy, limited integration with existing hospital infrastructure, or even diagnosis/treatment delays resultant of technical failures or specialists' lack of instantaneous availability lead to different considerations. Innovation and Expansion Under the ICMR Initiative, Amrita Hospital Introduces a Tele-Stroke System in Kotagiri In September 2024, to provide cutting-edge stroke care to rural areas, the ICMR's TeleStroke project was started at Kotagiri Medical Fellowship Mission Hospital in partnership with Amrita Hospital, Kochi. By offering critical care services to rural, tea estate, and tribal communities, the initiative hopes to ensure that stroke victims receive prompt intervention and follow-up treatment. A three-day medical camp including thrombolysis stroke clinics and stroke awareness workshops for local physicians and medical personnel was attended by more than 200 tribe people. The Last State in Australia to Provide Telestroke Service was Queensland In July 2023, the state government of Queensland has committed A$5.8 million (USD 4 million) to launch a telestroke service. The virtual telestroke service, which is anticipated to debut in 2024, aims to assist around two million residents in rural and regional locations with little to no access to stroke specialists. Furthermore, residents of rural and isolated locations, who are reportedly 17% more inclined to have a stroke than residents of urban areas, are anticipated to profit tremendously from the program. Inventive Sparks, Expanding Markets Companies in the concentration of telestroke services would be Sevaro Health, Inc., Eagle Telemedicine, Teladoc Health, Inc., and TELESPECIALISTS, among others. The core strategies for companies remain oriented towards rapid response times, building a solid technological infrastructure with high-quality video capabilities, forging strong alliances with local Telemedicine Providers, and focusingfully on patient education and awareness.

Defunded DA hangs onto control of office for now

NEW MEXICO (KRQE) — The state of New Mexico recently defunded a district attorney, saying she couldn't keep or hire staff because of her incompetence. The state now has a plan to fix the McKinley County District Attorney's Office operations, but the DA isn't allowing that to happen quite yet. San Juan County District Attorney Jack Fortner has tried email, phone calls, and even a mediation hosted by the Governor's Office to get McKinley County District Attorney Bernadine Martin to meet with him in person. Now out of time, he showed up at her office at 9 a.m. on Tuesday – the day the fiscal year began. The state legislature had put Fortner in control of the McKinley County DA Office's budget. 'It's on her': Senator defunds DA citing attitude, staff shortage When Fortner asked if Martin was available to speak, he was surprised to find she was. Martin let Fortner in, along with his staff – an HR employee and office manager who were ready to begin onboarding the staff under his payroll. Plus, attorneys prepared to help with her county's caseload. But then, Martin closed the door. The state defunded Martin's office after years of complaints from the community and police. She should have eight assistant prosecutors, but for more than six months, she's had zero. As we shared in a KRQE investigation Monday night, the sheriff says this staffing shortage has led to criminals not being held accountable. On top of that, KRQE News 13 is told Martin has created a hostile work environment. After their meeting, KRQE asked the DA again if she would talk with us. She said no, saying she had just met with Fortner. Their meeting lasted about half an hour. Fortner said he 'was not expecting her to co-operate,' but found Martin was very cooperative, and that they had a good discussion. But she won't let him have any say in her office's operation just yet. Fortner says Martin asked him to hold off for at least two more weeks, as she'd like to hear from the New Mexico Supreme Court first. Just last month, Martin petitioned the justices to weigh in on whether the legislature and governor have the right to defund her'DA Martin assured me that she has legal coverage for two weeks,' said Fortner. 'She has funds for her staff for two weeks. And so I said, 'as soon as you need us, we're here.'' Still, it remains unclear if the court will hand down a decision that soon. Fortner says that 'it's her office, and I can't intrude without her cooperation.' They agreed to talk in a week, and see what happens. Now, Martin could be removed before then. The governor asked the attorney general to investigate whether Martin's conduct amounts to gross incompetence. Letter from Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham to Attorney General Raúl Torrez Letter to District Attorney Bernadine Martin Response from Attorney General Raúl Torrez New Mexico Department of Justice spokesperson Lauren Rodriguez released the following statement: 'We are actively investigating whether District Attorney Bernadine Martin's conduct meets the legal standard of gross incompetence, as outlined in state statute, which is necessary to pursue her removal from elected office. As with any investigation, she is entitled to due process, and we remain committed to upholding the rule of law.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
