What an incredible day of community, compassion, and purpose! We’re grateful to Carter’s Champions for organizing the Pink Dress Run, bringing our community together to celebrate breast cancer survivors, raise awareness, and support the Memorial Hospital Foundation!

Thank you Jourdan Deuron for 9 years of support!

Our Memorial residents were on hand in case of medical emergencies while sharing valuable education about breast cancer awareness and early detection. Our MOBI mobile medical clinic team and mammogram schedulers also joined the event, helping attendees learn about screening options and take the next step toward prioritizing their health.

💕 Did you know? Screening mammograms are available for $125, but through the Memorial Hospital Foundation, individuals who meet certain eligibility requirements may receive their screening mammogram FREE of charge!

It was inspiring to see so many people come together to support survivors, honor loved ones, and promote the importance of regular screenings.

Early detection saves lives, and together, we’re making a difference beyond the hospital walls! 💗

Happy Case Management Week! 💙

At Memorial, our case managers are dedicated nurses and social workers who help patients transition safely from the hospital to home or the next level of care. From coordinating discharge plans to arranging medical equipment, home health services and community resources, they help ensure patients have what they need to recover.

“It’s Case Management Week, and I work with the best team in the business! You won’t find a more caring, dedicated group of nurses and social workers who truly care about making sure they get our patients discharged safely with what they need to recover.” — Cindy, System Director of Case Management

Not all may be pictured here but thank you to the Case Management team for the compassion and dedication you bring to our patients and families every day!

The Population Health Department would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the Auxiliary for its generous donation of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and two Body Mass Index (BMI) monitors for our Mobile Health Unit.

This valuable contribution enhances our ability to provide safe, high-quality care in the communities we serve. The AED will equip our providers and trained staff with the tools needed to respond effectively during medical emergencies while working in the field. The BMI monitors will support health education and wellness initiatives at community events and health fairs, helping individuals better understand and manage their health.

We are thankful for the Auxiliary’s continued commitment to improving the health and well-being of our community. Your generosity helps us expand access to care and make a meaningful impact where it is needed most.

Memorial Health System was proud to be part of the Pivot in Pink Breast Cancer Awareness & Women’s Empowerment Experience!

Dr. Claudia Sampong spent the afternoon connecting with women, sharing valuable information about breast cancer awareness and early detection. She also provided hands-on education on how to recognize potential breast changes, including lumps, during breast self-exams, while highlighting the health services and programs available at Memorial.

Early detection starts with awareness, and preventive care is an important part of your overall health. Looking for an OB/GYN? Learn more about Dr. Claudia Sampong and the care she provides at Memorial.

Music has always been a big part of Bruce’s life. As a music teacher, church musician and private instructor, he depends on his shoulder more than he probably realized.

When shoulder problems started affecting him, Bruce was referred to Dr. Arthur Black at Memorial. What stood out to him was the way Dr. Black took the time to break everything down, explain what was happening and walk him through his treatment options.

After choosing surgery, Bruce’s procedure was a success, giving him the opportunity to keep doing what he loves.

Hear Bruce share his experience and why having a physician who takes the time to explain your care can make all the difference.
