Give rural hospitals a fighting chance | Opinion

Last year, Sturgis Hospital celebrated a milestone few community institutions ever reach: 100 years of serving rural Michigan. A little more than 15 months later, it closed for good. For the residents of the surrounding community, the closure means longer ambulance rides, fewer options for medical treatment, and potentially life-threatening delays in emergency care. The closure of Sturgis is hardly an isolated incident. Nearly 700 rural hospitals across the country are at risk of closure, including 260 facing immediate financial peril. More than 100 rural hospitals have shut their doors over the past two decades. Rural communities can't afford to keep losing access to essential medical care. What's needed are reforms that help independent rural hospitals remain competitive and expand access to affordable, high-quality healthcare. Running a financially sustainable rural hospital is often an uphill battle. Rural hospitals generally serve relatively small patient populations. Yet they still have to maintain expensive facilities, equipment, and staff to provide essential services around the clock. Compounding the problem, rural patients frequently bypass their local hospitals for lucrative elective surgeries, such as knee replacements. One study of rural hospitals in four states found that patients bypassed their local hospital for nearly half of elective

No. 3 Northridge girls basketball falls to No. 2 Homestead in key clash

MIDDLEBURY — The best news to come out of a tough home loss for the Northridge High School girls basketball team may be that Lily Scholl was wearing a smile following it. Scholl, the senior star for the Raiders, left the game with 35 seconds to play after going down and grabbing her left leg. The No. 3 Raiders dropped a 57-50 final to No. 2 Homestead in Jayco Arena Wednesday, Nov. 11, in a clash of Class 4A powers.

The Spring Arbor recruit averaged 18 points and seven rebounds as a junior to lead the Raiders to a semi-state semifinal game. "It was a cramp in her calf," said Northridge coach Doug Springer of Scholl leaving the game and being helped to the bench. "We were hoping it was not major and hopefully we avoided that. I don't

South Bend Tribune staff predicts IHSAA football regional championships

And then there were three. After last week’s sectional slate where seven South Bend Tribune coverage area teams competed for championships, only Penn , Concord and Northridge emerged victorious. The Kingsmen and Minutemen are back in the regional round for a second straight season, while the Raiders advanced past sectional play for the first time since 2022. All three of these squads are favored to capture regional crowns come Friday night, but does The Tribune’s staff agree? More: All of the 2026 fall sports all-Northern Indiana Conference teams Find out below. IHSAA 6A Regional Championship: No. 6 Penn (11-0) at No. 5 Crown Point (11-0), 7:30 p.m. ET Analysis: This should be one of the most competitive games in the state this week, and certainly the most competitive in The Tribune coverage area. It’s a game many Kingsmen players have been looking forward to for years, such as senior Mohammad Al-Gburi, who said beating the Bulldogs in last season’s sectional championship game wasn’t enough revenge after Crown Point ended Penn’s season when he was a freshman and a sophomore. You’d have to assume the feeling is mutual on the other side after Penn beat the Bulldogs by just four points

Sturgis schools weigh new bond after May rejection

STURGIS, MI – A three-part bond proposal to fund upgrades throughout the Sturgis Public Schools campus is being examined for consideration next year, months after a similar, $98 million request was nixed by voters. The board of education and district administrators on Nov. 6 and Nov. 9, discussed a potential $86.7 million proposal, one that could be broken into sections by academic and athletic priority. All told, the proposal in development would see a millage rate of about 6.95 mills. The matter is still in the discussion phase, but will need to be finalized by January to make deadline for a spring ballot measure, district officials said. More: Sturgis holiday events bring festive fun to downtown A potential first request, estimated at about $51.2 million, would seek funding for academic infrastructure, such as bathroom renovations, roof replacements, barrier-free access and security improvements, technology, library renovations, classroom renovations, parking, drives and site work. A second request would focus on reduced athletic complex upgrades at $9.2 million, including new LED stadium lighting, a new grandstand at the soccer field and soil remediation, a reduction of more than $12 million over May’s proposal. A third section at approximately $26.3 million would ask for
