Utah CareNow® centers – MountainStar Healthcare's eight urgent care clinics – recently earned reaccreditation from the Urgent Care Association (UCA) for the highest level of distinction in patient care.

The Utah clinics are located in West Point, Bountiful, Salt Lake, Murray, West Jordan, South Jordan, American Fork and Orem. All are open seven days a week, including during extended evening hours. All locations accept walk-in visits and also have a convenient Web Check-In® option.

We recently hosted our First Annual 'Hope Floats' event to benefit the HCA Healthcare Hope Fund. We had a fun afternoon of free BBQ lunch, root beer floats, and music!

After it was all said and done, because of our amazing colleagues, we raised… $6000 for The Hope Fund!

The Hope Fund is a 501(c)3 charity that provides emergency funds to our colleagues when significant hardships arise due to illness, injury, natural disasters, or other difficult situations that impact their essential needs. All HCA Healthcare and MountainStar Healthcare colleagues can contribute to the Hope Fund and apply for help. Learn more at: www.hcahopefund.com

Thank you to our Food and Nutrition Services team for cooking up a delicious BBQ lunch and to all the colleagues who showed up to support the Hope Fund!
