⛳️ Giving back to those who serve us! ⛳️

Our leadership team was honored to volunteer bright and early to help set up and lend a hand at the annual Operation True North US Golf Classic on September 11, 2026! It was an incredible day supporting a truly amazing organization that does vital work in our community.
Operation True North’s mission is to provide mental health services for veterans, active duty military, first responders, medical workers, and their families through counseling, peer support groups, and creating a supportive network.
We are so grateful for everything they do to care for our heroes and their families. Thank you to everyone who came out to play, sponsor, and support this fantastic event! 💚🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️

365 days. 8,760 hours. Zero CLABSIs.

While high-tech equipment and modern facilities are great, the true heartbeat of our hospital has always been—and will always be—our incredible team.

Reaching a full year free of Central Line-Associated Bloodstream Infections doesn't just happen by chance. It happens because our nurses, unit technicians, respiratory therapists, physicians, and support staff pour their hearts into every single detail of patient care. It’s a testament to their relentless dedication, flawless technique, and the deep empathy they bring to every bedside, every single day.

We recently threw a celebration to honor this extraordinary milestone and, more importantly, to honor the people who made it possible.

To our staff: thank you for setting the standard for exceptional, safe patient care. We could not be prouder of your hard work, your passion, and the love you show our community every day! 💙👏
