Intermountain Healthcare Spanish Fork Hospital Celebrates First Anniversary of Service With a Community Event

One year ago, during the height of the COVID pandemic restrictions, cancelled events, and limited social interactions, Intermountain Spanish Fork Hospital opened its doors to the community. 

Many individuals weren’t able to see the new hospital up close, but they now have the opportunity to experience the many resources and technology available at the new hospital. 

Spanish Fork Hospital, as part of its one-year anniversary, is hosting a community event on Saturday, April 23, 2022, from noon to 3 pm, to bring the community together to interact with caregivers and highlight the high-tech resources available at the hospital. 

Fun events, family activities, food, and education opportunities will be available to visitors to celebrate the hospital’s one-year anniversary. 

“Because Spanish Fork Hospital opened for service in April 2021 during COVID-19 restrictions, we were not able to host an event for the community,” said Megan Johnson, nurse administrator of Spanish Fork Hospital. “That’s why we are excited to invite the community to join us to celebrate this important milestone.”

Visitors will be able to experience various activities, including a life-size game of Operation, fun face and body bone painting “x-rays,” and much more. In addition, residents can bring old medication to drop-off to be safely disposed of at the medication drop box, as well as sign up to participate in Intermountain’s HerediGene study. 

Spanish Fork Hospital is also partnering with Tabitha’s Way to host a community food drive. Visitors are encouraged to bring non-perishable food to the event to help those in need. 

Intermountain Spanish Fork Hospital is located at 765 East Market Place Drive.
