Today we recognize The Great American Smokeout — a nationwide call to quit smoking and commit to a healthier life!

Did you know:

▪️ Smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke cause more than 480,000 deaths each year in the U.S. alone.
▪️ Cigarette smoking increases the risk of at least 12 different types of cancer.
▪️ This includes all forms of to***co, including ci******es, ci**rs, smokeless to***co, and vapes.
▪️ Many people think quitting is impossible on their own — but with support and the right resources, your chances are much greater.

Whether you’re ready to quit today, or you’re planning your quit date, you don’t have to do it alone. Here is a trusted resource you can call or visit:

Caring Beyond the Call: Heather Lindsey’s Compassion in Action
For Registered Nurse Heather Lindsey, compassion isn’t just a word — it’s a daily practice woven into every patient interaction. Whether she’s offering a comforting hand or advocating for a patient in pain, Heather embodies what it truly means to care with heart.
When asked what “compassion in action” means to her, Heather’s answer reflects the quiet, meaningful moments that define nursing: “It means talking with a patient who is lonely, holding the hand of a dying patient, making an Ensure shake for the patient that needs some extra calories, advocating for the patient who is hurting and needs something to help the pain.” These acts of kindness and empathy may seem small, but to Heather, they are the foundation of excellent care.
For her, the most rewarding part of her job comes when she sees a patient’s journey come full circle. “The most rewarding part of my job is wheeling the patient to their car when they are feeling 100% better from when they first came to see me.” Watching a patient recover and regain their strength reminds Heather why she chose this profession.
Heather also credits her team at St. Bernards Five Rivers Medical Center for creating an environment that makes compassionate care possible. “I work with the best group of people. They are hardworking, dedicated, and the most compassionate group of people.” Their teamwork and shared dedication inspire her to bring her best self to work each day.
When asked what drives her to continue showing compassion, Heather’s answer is simple yet profound: “Patients come to me when they are at their worst many times. They do not feel well. The first thing I can do for the patient is show compassion. That is how I would expect anyone taking care of me or my family.”
To those just beginning their healthcare journey, Heather offers honest and heartfelt advice: “Healthcare is hard. Some days you come home feeling victorious and others you come home feeling defeated. You just have to do your best every day and know that you are doing all you can every day to take the best care of your patients.”
Ultimately, Heather’s favorite part about working at Five Rivers is the people. “My favorite thing about working at Five Rivers is the community of people I get to work with every day.”
Through her empathy, teamwork, and steadfast commitment to her patients, Heather Lindsey is a shining example of Compassion in Action.
