Happy Nurse Practitioner Week!
This week, we celebrate our incredible NPs—Vanessa Dischner, Haley Perry, and Alan Favier—who provide trusted, compassionate, patient-centered care to our community.

NP Week Is a Time to Celebrate, Honor, and Advocate

NPs play a vital role in ensuring healthcare remains accessible—especially in rural communities like ours. They bring advanced clinical expertise, exceptional communication skills, and a patient-centered philosophy to every visit. During NP Week, we celebrate their contributions and support their ability to practice to the fullest extent of their education and training.

Your Local NPs Are Accepting New Patients

Whether you’re new to the area, looking to establish care, or ready to take proactive steps for your health, our Nurse Practitioners are here to support you.

Honoring Our Veterans—Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow 🇺🇸

Today, we pause to honor all who have served, are serving, and will serve our great nation. Your courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment remind us of what it truly means to put others first.

At Yuma Hospital & Clinics, we recognize that the willingness to serve our country translates powerfully into service within healthcare. Many of our team members carry that same dedication from military service into caring for their communities every single day—and we are proud to stand alongside them.

To all veterans: thank you.
To all active-duty service members: we stand with you.
To all future service members: we support you.

We are a grateful nation—and today, we celebrate Veterans Day united.

This week, during National Radiologic Technology Week, we honor the skilled professionals who bring clarity, comfort, and compassion to every image we capture.

Whether it’s a screening mammogram, an urgent CT after trauma, a detailed MRI for diagnosis, or a DEXA to assess bone health — these professionals bring skill, empathy and care to every patient encounter.

Their training & expertise matter: Radiologic technologists complete rigorous education, maintain certifications, and stay up to date with advances in imaging technology to ensure patient safety, image quality, and the best possible outcomes.

To our Radiology Team, thank you for being guardians of diagnosis and care for patients getting screened, those undergoing diagnosis, and everyone who depends on accurate imaging to guide their treatment. Your dedication is part of our mission to deliver outstanding healthcare close to home.

Let’s give them a message of appreciation in the comments below, and feel free to share your own stories of how imaging has made a difference for you or a loved one.

Can a picture be worth more than a thousand words?

Last night proved that it can.

Our Evening of Appreciation and Black Tie Dinner brought together board members, community supporters, and generous donors who made the MRI Experience possible. The night was filled with gratitude, laughter, and a shared sense of pride for what we’ve accomplished together.

To the incredible staff who planned, prepared, and flawlessly executed every detail — you made the evening unforgettable. From start to finish, everything reflected the heart and excellence of the Yuma Hospital & Clinics.

There are too many moments to capture and too many people to thank in just a thousand words… but please know how deeply grateful we are.

We can’t wait for the next time we get to celebrate with the community we serve — because together, we make extraordinary things happen.

Our team of Andy Bowin, Erin Hill, Lillie Oss, and Mandy Goble was honored to attend the Akron High School Career Fair, connecting with students from Akron (8th–12th grade) and Arickaree.

Representatives from Physical Therapy, Diagnostic Imaging, Nursing, Rural Health Clinic, and Leadership shared insights about living and working in a rural community — where healthcare professionals truly make a difference.

Students asked great questions about careers in healthcare, including education requirements, pay, benefits, and hands-on experience for fields like nursing, therapy, and radiology.

We’re proud to help inspire the next generation of healthcare professionals and show that meaningful careers start right here in rural Colorado! Town of Akron, Colorado Akron Public Schools
