99% of skin cancer cases are curable if diagnosed and treated early enough. But in order to stop skin cancer, it must be spotted in time. July is UV Safety Awareness month, a time to highlight the correlation of UV rays and skin cancer. Along with the obvious reminders (apply SPF30+ sunscreen often and liberally, seek shade, and avoid the sun during mid-day), we are sharing some important facts about skin cancer that we hope will help.

Congratulations to our 3Q:2024 Employee of the Quarter, Chris Harper! Chris is a patient access registrar, often the first person a patient comes into contact with when visiting our facility. She was nominated with the following comment:

"I believe Chris has become an increasingly integral and important part of the St. Vincent team. In the time that I have known Chris, she has shown me that she is always willing to take on whatever may be asked of her and do what is the best for St. Vincent Health. When taking on new projects, she does so with a great attitude. Additionally, she always greets people with a firm professional attitude, a smile, and listens carefully to their concerns. I believe that Chris brings her best every day and is a true ambassador for health in our community."

10,000 feet altitude brings us the best in scenery and outdoor recreation - but it also brings accelerated sunburn and dehydration. Keep summer safety in mind as you head outdoors - sunscreen, water, good footwear, and always wear a helmet when biking.

Our Story

Nestled at 10,152 feet of elevation in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, St. Vincent Hospital is a Critical Access Hospital serving the rural area of Lake County and North America’s highest city of Leadville, Colorado. St. Vincent Hospital and St. Vincent Medical Clinic offer: Primary Care, Laboratory, Imaging, Physical Therapy, 24/7 Emergency Room and 24/7 Ambulance (call 911), 8 inpatient rooms, Swing Bed, Respite Care, Sleep Studies and visiting Cardiology.

In 2019, as St. Vincent Hospital celebrates 140 years of caring, we will begin construction on a new, state-of-the-art hospital. This is made possible by community and taxpayer support and a financial turnaround which is currently underway at St. Vincent General Hospital District (SVGHD).

Looking to the future, the district has embraced the concept of a health campus where specialists, primary care, Lake County Public Health Agency and other health related offices reside in the current hospital building and synergistic-ally complement services in the adjacent new hospital facility.
