Supporting Caregivers and Communities Impacted by Historic Flooding

During a visit to Montana, Mark Korth, Intermountain Healthcare  Region President, and the Medical Group Leadership team had an opportunity to visit caregivers at our Red Lodge and Absarokee clinics and communities impacted by the historic flooding in Montana earlier this summer. 

“While our Medical Group service area and caregivers were personally impacted, our teams did not waver in their commitment to maintaining patient care. We wanted to share a special thanks to our caregivers in Red Lodge and Absarokee, who remained open with only brief interruptions in care,” shared Dr. Jeff Zavala, Regional Chief Medical Officer, Medical Group and Provider Services.

“This steadfast commitment to these communities and our patients is a true testament to the exceptional individuals who bring the mission of our organization to life.”

Because the recovery continues for our friends and neighbors in these communities, members of the Red Lodge Area Community Foundation and the Absarokee Community Foundation also met with our caregivers during the visits and we shared that St. Vincent Healthcare will be making a $15,000 contribution to each organizations’ Disaster Relief Funds to continue to support our communities in need.
