Pilar Haskell, Jr. – a new resident of Utah – was just 22 weeks along with her first child when her water broke. The incredible Women's Services team at our MountainStar Healthcare sister facility, Ogden Regional Medical Center, kept Pilar pregnant for two weeks. On March 14 – Pi Day – Baby Pilar III was born at 24 weeks. This beautiful baby girl, named after both her mom and grandma, has quadrupled her birth weight.

The staff and patients feel comfortable around her, and feel like they can talk to her at time. She is always mentioned by new nurses as someone that takes the extra time to teach them, and makes them feel comfortable and welcomed as they learn to work in Same Day Surgery.

Heidi has a great rapport with all the physicians at Lakeview, especially the cardiologists. She goes above and beyond for them and their patients.

Congratulations to Lakeview's 2025 Awards of Distinction recipients! These extraordinary individuals truly make our hospital better through their dedication and compassion, and inspire us to live out the mission on which we were founded–to care for and improve human life–both within and outside of our walls. The Excellence in Nursing Award recognizes the highest levels of performance in the field of nursing. Lakeview’s 2025 Excellence in Nursing, Compassionate Care recipient is Mirette, a Float Nurse!

Whenever Mirette works on the floor, she goes above and beyond to help patients. A patient who had ortho surgery a recently said that she had all her surgeries done at a different hospital; she used their services all the time. This was their first time at Lakeview, and she appreciated Mirette for providing the best possible care. She said any time she comes back she would like to have Mirette as her nurse.

In another situation, Mirette gathered a bunch of nurses and somehow connected with a patient who did not allow anyone to do anything for her. The patient kept refusing help, but Mirette covered her in warm blankets and ended up helping her. She could have just gone home; instead, she stayed late and found a way to help the patient.

Congratulations, Mirette, on this well-deserved recognition! Thank you for your continued commitment to care like family.

Summer 2025: Mosquito Science with Ask The Doctor on FOX 13 News

Mosquitoes are selective insects, meaning some people are more likely to get bites than others. That’s right... there’s actual science behind why some people are more attractive to the insects than others!

MountainStar Healthcare's Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Filip Roos, joined Good Day Utah with FOX 13 News' Kelly Chapman & Dan Evans to talk about it. If you're wondering whether you're a target, consider the answers to these questions:
1️⃣ What's your blood type? Do you have Type O?
2️⃣ How much carbon dioxide does your body give off? (The more you give off, the more attractive you are to the bugs)
3️⃣ Do you run warm? People whose body heat runs a little higher are more likely to get the bite.

In one controlled study by the Journal of Medical Entomology, the bugs landed on people with blood Type O nearly twice as frequently as those with Type A. Lifestyle or other health factors may also play a role. If you're drinking alcohol or exercising, bites are more likely. If you're overweight or pregnant, you're also more likely to get bitten!

Stay safe out there and do your best to prevent bites altogether!
• Avoid peak mosquito activity times (sunrise & sunset)
• Wear loose-fitting, light-colored long-sleeved shirts and long pants
• Keep a fan on or gather in a breezy area
• Use insect repellent with DEET
• Treat clothing and gear with an insecticide
• Control mosquitoes indoors and outdoors

According to the Alzheimer's Association, 92% of Americans would want a medication to slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease following a diagnosis. However, in order to make that possible, early diagnosis is critical. An early Alzheimer’s diagnosis allows a patient the opportunity to participate in clinical trials, a chance to prioritize their health, access to treatment options and ultimately, increased odds of benefiting from treatment.

With more than 55 million people worldwide living with Alzheimer's or another dementia, and two-thirds of Americans having at least one major potential risk factor for dementia, the positive impact early diagnosis can have is absolutely incredible!

Dr. Shane Weber – an interventional radiologist here at Lakeview Hospital – joined Fox 13's The PLACE Wednesday to discuss testing and treatment options for the disease.

"At Lakeview Hospital, we’ve developed a tracking system that allows us to collaborate with referring providers for Alzheimer’s patients being considered for one of these new treatments," Dr. Weber explained. "The system allows us to quickly get patients scheduled for the correct imaging exam, to allow providers to initiate treatment more immediately, as well as for us to closely monitor side effects of the treatment."

Over 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's disease. By 2050, this number is projected to rise to nearly 13 million.
