💚 In recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month, Cache Valley Hospital is proud to celebrate alongside our fellow MountainStar Healthcare hospitals and HCA Healthcare in supporting a new partnership with Girl Scouts of Utah focused on championing positive mental wellness for girls and families across our communities.

Through a $25,000 investment from the HCA Healthcare Foundation, this initiative will provide girls across Utah with tools and experiences that build confidence, resilience and connection, because — as Dr. Sara Kelly, Division Chief Medical Officer for HCA Healthcare’s Mountain Division shared, "Supporting positive mental wellness for young people is critical to building healthier tomorrows."

The partnership will support statewide mental wellness programming, including Girl Scouts of Utah’s Grow Your Glow event and year-round wellness resources designed to help girls navigate life’s challenges and build meaningful connections.

Also present at the announcement this week were colleagues from our division’s Mental Wellness Colleague Network—helping highlight the importance of supporting mental wellness both inside our hospitals and throughout the communities we serve.

If you’ve had a baby, you may have heard of postpartum hemorrhage — or severe bleeding after childbirth. While uncommon, it can become life-threatening without prompt treatment, which is why it’s important to recognize warning signs early.

Across our broader HCA Healthcare network of care, more than 200,000 babies are delivered each year. Clinical data from those deliveries helps us identify and implement evidence-based practices to improve maternal and newborn outcomes. This includes reducing elective deliveries before 39 weeks, strengthening blood clot prevention and using medications to reduce the occurrence and severity of postpartum hemorrhage.

💢 If you experience heavy bleeding or feel something isn’t right after giving birth, call 911 or seek immediate care. Know where to go in case of an emergency: https://bit.ly/4dATv2I

This past week, we were honored to host luncheons for our EMS partners as a small token of our appreciation for the exceptional partnership they provide every day.

We are incredibly grateful for the courage, compassion, and professionalism our EMS partners bring to every call. When patients and families need care the most, you are often the first to arrive, providing comfort, quick action, and excellent care in critical moments.

Your dedication does not go unnoticed, and we are proud to work alongside you in serving our community. Thank you for all you do during EMS Week and every week!

In 1974, President Gerald Ford authorized EMS Week™ to celebrate EMS professionals and the critical work they do in communities nationwide. National Emergency Medical Services Week is about honoring the dedication of those who provide the day-to-day lifesaving services of medicine's frontline. 🚑⚕️🚨

National EMS Week 2026 is presented by the American College of Emergency Physicians - ACEP in partnership with the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT).

To celebrate the observance, Fox 13's The PLACE host, Jenny Hardman, got a tour of Gold Cross Ambulance's fleet facility in Salt Lake City with the company president and Kelsie Green, Chief Operating Officer (COO) at St. Mark's Hospital. Green was an ER nurse for 17 years. EMS services and all MountainStar Healthcare hospitals work hand-in-hand to treat emergent patients across Utah from Logan to Payson.

"EMS professionals are often the first point of care during some of the most critical moments in a patient’s life," Green said. "Our EMS are our partners. I’ve always thought of them as an extension of our care team."

Happy EMS Week, all! ❤️

Do you know if you’re at risk for a stroke? The good news is that many stroke risk factors are manageable with routine checkups, care and healthy lifestyle choices. Knowing your numbers and talking with your doctor are important first steps.

We’re connected to the broader HCA Healthcare network of care, which includes 45 comprehensive stroke centers. Caregivers across our network treat more than 60,000 stroke patients each year.

Through the support of HCA Healthcare and the HCA Healthcare Foundation — in collaboration with the American Heart Association’s Getting to the Heart of Stroke™ initiative — we're helping to raise awareness about the connection between heart health and stroke and providing education and resources to our communities.

If you or someone you know suffers a stroke, call 911 immediately. Before you need emergency care, know where to find an ER near you: https://bit.ly/3RRCwk5
