🧼Clean the area with soap and cool water.
🧴Apply a thin layer of ointment.
🩹Dress the wound with sterile non-stick gauze.
💊Take over-the-counter medication to manage pain.

Your family story holds clues that affect your risk for . Start a conversation with the women in your life — mothers, sisters, aunts, grandmas, cousins — to uncover any history of breast cancer. If you’re gathering with loved ones for Thanksgiving or the holiday season, it may be the perfect time for a chat.

Ask questions like:
➡ Who in our family has been diagnosed?
➡ At what age did they receive their diagnosis?
➡ Did they have other cancers that are linked to breast cancer, like ovarian, cervical or endometrial cancer?

Once you’ve gathered your family health history, it’s time to talk to a genetic counselor. They’ll help you:
✅ Understand how genes such as BRCA1 and BRCA2 influence risk 🧬
✅ Navigate the ins and outs of genetic testing
✅ Receive personalized screening and prevention recommendations

Early knowledge is power. When you combine family insights with expert guidance, you take control of your health journey. Learn more about the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes and guidelines for genetic testing: https://bit.ly/4o4FmwQ

For David and Peggy Fisher, Brigham City Community Hospital’s ICU was a beacon of hope during a life-threatening crisis. After battling sepsis and facing critical complications, David was transported to the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit, where he received compassionate, expert care.

The dedicated team worked tirelessly to stabilize his condition and provided invaluable education to ensure his recovery continued smoothly after discharge.

The Fishers were deeply moved by the personalized attention they received, from detailed medical updates to emotional support that extended beyond the hospital stay. Thanks to the ICU team’s efforts, David regained his strength and returned to his daily life with renewed health and confidence.

Reflecting on their experience, David shared, "They didn’t just heal me—they gave me my life back. And that’s why I say, take me to Brigham City Community Hospital."

is the leading cause of cancer deaths in America, according to the American Lung Association. And for many people, there are no symptoms until later stages of the disease. That’s why lung cancer screening is so important. Screening can detect cancer early, when it’s most treatable. It’s performed through a low-dose computerized tomography (CT) scan — an X-ray of your lungs that could lead to life-saving care.

Not sure if you should get screened? Follow these guidelines from HCA Healthcare’s Sarah Cannon Cancer Network. If you’re between age 50 and 80 and you meet at least one of the criteria shown here, you’re eligible for a low-dose CT scan. If you have Medicare, you must be 50 to 77 to be eligible. Talk with your doctor to learn more or schedule an appointment with one of our experts: https://bit.ly/3JLsDRB

As the 2025 hurricane season winds down, HCA Healthcare – known locally as MountainStar Healthcare – continues its long-standing commitment to preparedness, resilience and compassionate care. Through thoughtful planning, partnerships and the dedication of thousands of colleagues nationwide, we stand ready – whenever and wherever we’re needed most.

"I love helping people be better – whether that’s saving a life, training someone to make better decisions or building a stronger process. I believe in leaving people and places better than I found them," said Chad Wilson, Market Director of EMS & Emergency Management for the HCA Healthcare Mountain Division.

In October 2024, while teams were still supporting recovery efforts in North Carolina after Hurricane Helene, Hurricane Milton began its approach toward Florida’s Gulf Coast. Chad Wilson was deployed to assist. Chad is a licensed paramedic and former firefighter, so it comes as no surprise that he thrives in high-pressure situations. When approximately 200 patients still needed to be transferred from HCA Florida Largo Hospital, Chad and his teammate arrived to find more than 100 ambulances lined up and ready.

"It was a beautiful sight," he recalled, as the team immediately got to work coordinating transfers.

Chad and the team established a modular free-standing emergency department which allowed our clinical colleagues to continue delivering uninterrupted emergency care. The team also stood up a colleague support center where area staff could drive thru to receive basic essentials like gasoline, food and water when these items were largely inaccessible in the community after the storm.

Chad, thanks for all you do to keep our communities safe – in Utah, Alaska, Florida and beyond! We are lucky to have you!
