When Eden was just 9 months old, her mom gave her a life-saving gift of a liver transplant. Today, Eden is a healthy, active teenager and competitive swimmer who recently competed alongside her mom at the Transplant Games in Denver, a national event that celebrates life and raises awareness for organ donation.

Now competing together for the fourth time, Eden and her mom are sharing their story to inspire others. “If you can give somebody else a second chance at life, why not?” 💚

Intermountain Children's Health and American Cleft Palate Craniofacial Association - ACPA are proud to present a meaningful art exhibit to Salt Lake City this weekend, shining a light on the cleft community and their stories.

Created by artist and advocate Katie Manning, the 100 Cleft Portraits Tour is a powerful, national exhibition celebrating the strength, resilience, and unique experiences of people affected by cleft lip and palate. The event is free and open to the public.

July is Cleft and Craniofacial Awareness Month, a time to raise awareness about cleft lip and cleft palate, conditions that affect approximately 1 in every 700–800 babies worldwide. At Primary Children's Hospitals, families don't have to navigate that journey alone. Through a coordinated, family-centered approach, children can see multiple specialists in one visit, helping simplify care and support the best possible outcomes.

Join us at the Utah Museum of Contemporary Art to explore this moving collection, hear powerful stories, and celebrate the families and individuals whose lives have been touched by cleft conditions. University of Utah Department of Surgery University of Utah Health

Utah's Pioneer Day is an opportunity to reflect on the visionaries who helped shape Utah and the pioneers who laid the foundation for Primary Children's Hospitals.

More than a century ago, May Anderson and Louie B. Felt opened a 35-bed hospital dedicated to caring for sick children. What began as a bold vision to meet the needs of Utah's youngest patients has grown into a nationally recognized pediatric health system serving children and families across the Mountain West.

The pioneering spirit that inspired the founding of Primary Children's Hospital continues today through the physicians, nurses, therapists, researchers, and caregivers who are dedicated to helping children heal, grow, and thrive.

Pioneer families faced uncertainty, change, and hardship. While children's challenges look different today, helping kids build resilience remains one of the most important ways we can support their health.

Happy Pioneer Day from Primary Children's Hospital. 💙

As e-bike and e-scooter usage continues to rise, we're seeing more trauma injuries, too.

Katherine Stokes, Trauma Nurse at Primary Children’s Hospitals, shares important information every parent should know before buying one of these devices, including that they can go much faster than you might expect.

Utah law now identifies 3 classes of e-mobility devices based on speed, which can impact safety and use.

Drowning is the second leading cause of preventable injury death for children under 14, and most tragedies happen closer to home than you might think. In Utah, 70% of drowning deaths occur between May and August, with many happening in lakes, rivers, pools, and even bathtubs.

“Most child drownings happen when an adult is present but not paying attention,” says Karlee Kump, Community Health Manager at Primary Children’s Hospital. “Attention is the best prevention.”

✅ Always actively supervise children around water
✅ Assign a distraction‑free “water watcher”
✅ Use Coast Guard‑approved life jackets in lakes and reservoirs
✅ Never leave a child alone in the bathtub, even for a second

A few small steps can save a life. Learn more ways to keep your family safe around water at IntermountainHealth.org/childsafety.

🎉 Happy International Day of Play! 🎉

Today at Primary Children’s Hospital, we celebrated the power of play through laughter, creativity, and connection—bringing moments of joy to our patients and families. From games and crafts to music and imagination, it was a reminder that even in the hospital, kids are still kids.

Play is essential to childhood, building resilience, confidence, and a sense of normalcy.

In healthcare, it’s also a powerful tool for healing—helping reduce anxiety and pain, support emotional expression, and make medical experiences less overwhelming.

That’s why at Primary Children’s, play is part of care every day. Because when we protect play, we protect childhood. 💙
