Having the flu is no fun. 🤒 While there is no foolproof method to avoiding the flu, following these steps will significantly reduce your risk this flu season:
◾ Get vaccinated: The flu vaccine is the single most effective way to prevent the flu. While it's not 100% effective, it significantly reduces your risk of getting sick and lessens the severity of illness if you do get it.
◾ Practice good hygiene: This is crucial in preventing the spread of the flu virus. Frequent handwashing, avoiding touching your face, covering coughs and sneezes, and cleaning and disinfecting surfaces go a long way.
◾ Maintain a healthy lifestyle: Get enough sleep, eat a balanced diet, manage stress, and stay hydrated.
◾ Avoid close contact with sick people.
◾ Stay home when you're sick.

CommonSpirit Health and University of Utah Health are pleased to announce a strategic clinical alliance that will give patients increased access to high-performing, world-class medical care close to home.

Through this alliance, patients at all five of our CommonSpirit hospitals in Utah will have access to the physicians and other providers who make University of Utah Health one of the most trusted medical institutions in the West. Additionally, as a community-based partner in care delivery specializing in a wide spectrum of care needs, CommonSpirit will extend the University of Utah Health’s capacity to provide care to more people along the Wasatch Front.

“We look forward to welcoming University of Utah Health providers to our hospitals and working alongside them as we improve population health and build a path to more accessible care along the Wasatch Front and beyond,” said Andrew Gaasch, President of CommonSpirit's Mountain Region.

CommonSpirit Health's Vision Awards recognize clinical excellence and the incredible work of our colleagues and teams across the nation. We're honored that two of our Mountain Region caregivers were named Overall Winners in the Innovation and Compassion categories. Congratulations to Dr. Ivy Donaldson (second from left) and Dr. Craig "Doc PJ" Perrinjaquet (center) for their honors!

Dr. Donaldson started multiple innovative programs that have given much-needed resources to our patients and increased our ability to help those with addiction. She also helped develop a DEI curriculum and overhauled our residency interview process to help decrease bias and increase diversity within our team.

Doc PJ embodies the very definition of empathy and humankindness. His unwavering commitment to serving the greater good is evident in his creation of Doctors to the World, a nonprofit organization that provides vital medical supplies and treatment to the most remote areas of the world.

More than 29 million Americans have diabetes, and 1 in 4 don't know it. Another 86 million adults have prediabetes, which can lead to type 2 diabetes within five years if action isn't taken to reduce blood sugar levels. World Diabetes Day is an opportunity to raise awareness about diabetes and the serious health problems it can cause, and also to support everyone throughout our communities working to take control of their diabetes.

At CommonSpirit, our doctors, nurses, educators and dietitians are committed to providing you with complete diabetes care - from healthy meal planning and increased physical activity to medication management and more. Learn more at mountain.commonspirit.org/diabetes

BIG NEWS! In keeping with our commitment to building a healthier future for all and improving access to health care, we're pleased to announce our purchase of land for a future health campus that will serve our rapidly expanding communities in south metro Denver.

The 42-acre parcel in the Meridian community at the southwest corner of Peoria Street and E-470 in Douglas County was chosen to ensure that people living in one of the fastest growing regions of the state have access to high-quality, patient-centered care close to home. Construction on the health campus is expected to begin in the third quarter of 2025. While additional details will be released in the coming months, demolition of the existing structure located on the building site will begin later this winter.

“With CommonSpirit’s expansive network of high-performing hospitals, clinics and caregivers, we are uniquely positioned to serve the people who live and work in this area,” said Andrew Gaasch, CommonSpirit’s Mountain Region President. “We are committed to transforming how and where health care can happen, and with 12 of our region’s 20 hospitals spanning from Durango to Frisco, from Canon City to Longmont, the south metro campus will allow us to connect communities across the state, serving as an important hub for providing innovative, compassionate care to our neighbors.”
