When you walk through the doors at Boundary Community Hospital, one of the very first people you may meet is a Health Unit Coordinator.

You want someone who is kind, steady, welcoming, and calm under pressure, especially in a hospital setting.

Emily is one of B*H’s amazing Health Unit Coordinators, and she helps keep things moving while offering a friendly face and calm presence to those coming through our doors. In a situation where people may be feeling uncertain, worried, or overwhelmed, that kind of kindness goes a long way.

We are grateful for Emily and for all of our HUCs who help create a positive experience for our patients, families, and care teams every day.

A couple of our ECF residents had a little fun for April Fool’s Day with some temporary tattoos, and it gave us all a reason to smile.

Moments like these are such a sweet reminder that joy, laughter, and a playful spirit matter. We love seeing our residents having fun and bringing a little extra personality to the day.

Happy April Fool’s Day from ECF!

They say working in a hospital on a full moon is always a little unpredictable, so Auburn Crest Hospice came through at exactly the right time.

A big thank you for this amazing Full Moon Treat Basket. Our staff was more than happy to have a few snacks and goodies to help ride the wave.

We truly appreciate the kindness, the laughs, and the thoughtful support. Thank you for keeping our team fueled for whatever the full moon may bring.

When you or someone you love needs to stay in the hospital, it matters who is at the bedside.

At Boundary Community Hospital, our inpatient team is here around the clock. Nurses, CNAs, and providers working together to make sure patients are cared for, supported, and never left wondering what comes next.

Our Med/Surg team cares for patients recovering from illness, surgery, or unexpected hospital stays. And for those who aren’t quite ready to go home, our Transitional Care Unit offers a bridge. More time, more support, and focused rehabilitation to help patients regain strength safely before returning home.

This is where healing continues.
This is where progress happens day by day.

Brianna (CNA), Lydia (RN), and Anna (RN) are part of that team. Showing up every shift, doing the work that doesn’t always get seen, but always gets felt.

Because care isn’t a slogan. It’s people.

And the goal is simple. Help you get back home, stronger than when you came in.

Meet Amy Cederquist, our Time Sensitive Emergency Stroke Program Manager.

When minutes matter, Amy is the one making sure everything behind the scenes is ready to go. She works closely with our teams to keep stroke care fast, coordinated, and aligned with strict state and national standards.

What does that mean for our community?

• Faster recognition and response when a stroke happens
• Clear protocols so care teams can act immediately
• Ongoing training and improvement to keep care sharp
• A system built to give patients the best possible outcome

Stroke care is not something you want to think about until you need it. Amy makes sure we are ready before that moment ever comes.

We are grateful to have her leading this important work right here at Boundary Community Hospital.

Last week, Boundary Community Hospital partnered with Boundary Ambulance to host a healthcare job shadow experience for a group of 8th grade students interested in learning more about careers in medicine.

Seven young women joined us for the two-hour shadow, and it was a great opportunity to give them a real look at what working in healthcare can be like.

We started the afternoon at the Clinic, where the students learned how to call and schedule an appointment and toured the clinic space. They also had the chance to hear from James “Jim” Lathrop, NP, who shared insight about his role and what it takes to pursue a career in healthcare.

From there, the group headed to the Fry Education House to talk about nursing and the many paths available within the profession.

Next up was our EMS team. John, Noah, and Michaela from Boundary Ambulance — who also work in our Emergency Department — shared about their education, what a typical day on the ambulance can look like, and demonstrated some of the equipment they use in the field. The students also got an up-close ambulance tour.

To wrap up the experience, the group toured several hospital departments including the Emergency Room, Med/Surg, and Pre/Post Op areas. The tours were conducted carefully to ensure there was no patient contact while still giving the students a behind-the-scenes look at the hospital.

We love opportunities like this to introduce local students to healthcare careers and help them imagine what their future could look like right here in our community.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the experience possible. The future of healthcare just might be sitting in an 8th grade classroom today. 💙 Thank you to Jeanine Dickson, RN & Amy Cederquist, RN, for making this happen!
