Patient Safety Awareness Week, an annual recognition event, is intended to encourage everyone to learn more about healthcare safety. This year’s theme, Together We Are Moving the Needle, emphasizes the shift from mere awareness to actionable steps to enhance the safety and care teams. Tomah Health recognizes that patient safety is a shared responsibility and that we are all safer when we work together. Although we are dedicating this week in March (3/9-3/15/25) to celebrate our patient safety achievements and raise awareness, providing safe care remains our organization’s priority every day.

As we wish for warmer weather, we spring forward this Daylight Savings. Don’t forget to move your clocks forward on Sunday, March 9.
Tomah Health is excited to welcome Orthopedic Surgeon Sheila Algan, M.D., to our Surgery / Orthopedic team. Dr. Algan has nearly 30 years of experience in orthopedic surgical services, focusing on adolescent and adult sports medicine including knee ligament reconstruction and repair.
“I have always been drawn to sports, and I like taking care of kids. It's nice you get them back into doing their activities quickly.”
As a Board-Certified Orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Algan received her medical degree from UW-Madison and completed her residency at the University of Pennsylvania, while receiving her fellowship in Orthopedic Sports Medicine at the University of Arizona. “I'm from Wisconsin and happy to be back. I like working in a rural setting, so I think being able to make a difference in a small community is a good thing.”
Dr. Algan looks forward to joining our team to offer high quality orthopedic care right here in Tomah. “What we can provide is kind of a one stop shop without having to go out of town. It's all in this facility, and it's local for them and I think just from the convenience standpoint for families, that is a much easier thing to do.”
As a Board-Certified Orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Algan received her medical degree from UW-Madison and completed her residency at the University of Pennsylvania while receiving her fellowship in Orthopedic Sports Medicine at the University of Arizona.
