Last week, the St. Luke’s Breast Care Services mobile mammography unit was parked outside the entrance to the Boas Soccer Complex for Boise State soccer’s matchup against No. 17 Utah State.

Though the home Broncos lost a tough 1-0 contest, the packed stands allowed plenty of fans to meet with St. Luke’s teams. Booths were set up to offer information on breast cancer along with goodies for all fans.

Kendall Pongon talks about the importance of screening and how the 3D imaging services available in the mobile unit are the same standard of care offered in clinics.

The Mobile Mammography Bus was made possible by 650 generous donors giving over $450,000. To support services like this, view link in bio: Make a Donation to St. Luke’s Cancer Institute.

Meet Taylor Westerberg, Supply Chain Supervisor, St. Luke’s Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine:

“My name is Taylor, and I’ve been part of the Supply Chain team for over 15 years now. I began my career working in the Meridian OR, there I was fortunate to learn the ins and outs of supply management from some of the best. Very quickly I realized the importance of the work we do day to day and took great pride in knowing I was part of team that works tirelessly to help family, friends, neighbors, and members of our community.

“In May 2023, I transitioned from the Meridian OR to River Street Surgery Center and began working with a new team preparing to open the new St Luke’s Center for Orthopedics and Sports Medicine facility. This proved to be a challenging and rewarding time that again reaffirmed the commitment and excellence of our teams in all we do. Over the past two and half years I have worked to form new relationships, develop workflows, and ensure the success of our teams and have found a feeling of immense accomplishment.

“What I enjoy most about my role is the people. I am truly thankful for each person on my team as they bring something uniquely different and special to the table. It is truly an honor to work aside and collaborate with such devoted, caring people to ensure staff are supported and our teams are successful in all they do.

“Outside of work, you’ll find me spending time with my family and chasing hobbies. Together my amazing wife and I have two boys who keep us busy with club and high school soccer, fishing, hunting, and outdoor adventures. Additionally, my wife and I can be found running down a local street or trail preparing for our next race!”

In the midday sunshine Sept. 24, happy faces – both human and canine – were abound at St. Luke’s.

Gathered on the Bannock corridor between the Boise hospital and the Anderson Center, about a dozen St. Luke’s therapy dogs greeted patients and team members alike. Treats for anyone on two or four legs were also provided!

“It’s wonderful, I love it when the dogs get together … it’s very rewarding,” said volunteer Lisa Barnes, a former nurse herself, who owns therapy dog Happy.
