Today is World Stroke Day 2025.

Stroke remains the second-leading cause of death in the world. There are an estimated 17 million strokes worldwide each year. On January 17, 2024, Silivenusi "Nusi" Tukuafu was just 50 years old and despite thinking he was "too young" to have a stroke, the Utah man became one of those stroke statistics. When he woke up and suddenly couldn’t move his left arm, his wife, Arnetia, knew he needed to get help fast. Thankfully, she called 911 right away and Nusi was taken by ambulance to our MountainStar Healthcare sister facility, St. Mark's Hospital – a Comprehensive Stroke Center – near the family's home. Once there, Nusi received an intravenous clot-busting drug 18 minutes after arriving at the ER, putting his "door-to-needle" time well within the 60-minute time frame recommended by the American Heart Association.

Our spiritual care program is an important way we ensure the holistic well-being of those who trust us for their care. While our award-winning care teams work to heal bodies and minds, our chaplains at (hospital) play a crucial role in nurturing the spirits of patients and their families.

Meet Joey, our chaplain at Lone Peak Hospital! After serving in the army for 30 years, retiring as a brigadier general, he felt called to work with soldiers going through trauma through chaplaincy. He earned his Masters in Divinity and retired from the military. He's now been working as a chaplain for over a year!

"People need connection in their lives," says Joey. "Spiritual care helps provide connection." When he's not working, Joey enjoys reading and playing tennis with his wife.

This year makes the 40th anniversary of Spiritual Care Week, and also the 40th anniversary of the ECS Spiritual Care and Education Center. The center’s 50 chaplains provide spiritual care throughout MountainStar Healthcare hospitals, and works with local higher education institutions to prepare the next generation of pastoral care providers. Thank you to our incredible chaplains, and happy Spiritual Care Week!
