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.

At Intermountain Health, we’re committed to supporting caregivers who want to grow their skills and advance their careers. Through our PEAK (Path to Education, Advancement and Knowledge) program, caregivers can access prepaid tuition assistance and development resources that help make those goals possible. Nevada caregiver Ondrea Humphrey is one of many who have used PEAK to take the next step in their healthcare journey. After beginning her career as a Patient Service Representative, she completed her Medical Assistant program in 2025 and recently earned her national certification. Her dedication to learning, caring for patients, and balancing life at home reflects the spirit of our caregiver community.
