Some moments in life stay with us forever — the ones that test our strength, reshape our perspective, and remind us how much compassionate care truly matters. Sue has lived through more than one of those moments. Decades after overcoming breast cancer in her twenties, she faced a new challenge that required courage all over again. When her heart needed expert care, she found a team at Intermountain Health who surrounded her with skill, reassurance, and small acts of kindness that made all the difference. As a retired Select Health caregiver, Sue also experienced the power of coordinated support from both Intermountain and Select Health, helping her focus on healing while the details were handled behind the scenes. Her journey is a testament to resilience, connection, and the impact of caregivers who see the whole person.

At Intermountain Health, we believe meaningful care extends beyond clinical treatment. It includes recognizing the moments that matter most to patients and finding ways to support them during life’s milestones. When Rylee, Spanish Fork High School senior, needed surgery and couldn’t attend her graduation ceremony, caregivers at Intermountain Spanish Fork Hospital came together to create a special celebration right inside the hospital. Caregivers from multiple departments collaborated to ensure Rylee could experience a moment she had been looking forward to — complete with a cap, gown, and the support of those around her. This experience reflects the compassion and teamwork our caregivers bring to patients and families every day.
For generations, many women have been taught to tolerate discomfort and push through symptoms, especially when it comes to hormonal changes. Hot flashes, sleep disruption, mood changes, brain fog, and joint pain are often brushed aside as “just part of being a woman and getting older.” Too often, menopause is minimized, misunderstood, or not taken seriously in healthcare settings. At Intermountain Health, we’re working to change that. We believe women deserve better, and that belief shows up in how we design care, how we train and support caregivers, and how we create space for real conversations about women’s health — conversations that listen first, rely on evidence, and treat women as whole people, not just a list of symptoms.
