As we wrap up August, we're proud to highlight our collaboration with Vancouver Public Schools in providing essential vaccination clinics for students. This effort, led by Dr. Nick Kashey, Legacy Health vice president of Population Health in partnership with Vancouver Public Schools, has ensured that many students are now up to date on their vaccines and ready to start the school year on time. With flu and RSV season approaching and in the wake of declining childhood vaccination rates during the pandemic, this initiative couldn't have come at a more critical time. At Legacy Health, we're dedicated to fostering strong partnerships that support the health and success of our communities. By ensuring students are prepared and protected, we're helping pave the way for a brighter future for the youth in our communities.

We are proud to announce that Legacy Good Samaritan Medical Center has earned a five-star rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and has been recognized as one of the top 50 U.S. rehabilitation hospitals by U.S. News and World Report. Achievements such as these reflect the incredible care our teams provide daily to our patients. Their dedication to excellence in areas such as patient safety, effective care, and patient experience makes this possible. We are grateful to our staff for their role in making our mission a reality—ensuring good health for all. #Ourlegacyisyours

Volunteers are an essential part of Legacy Health. They provide necessary support to our patients, families, and staff and help make a significant impact on their lives. Bruce, who retired after 43 years in the hospitality industry, chose to volunteer part-time in hospitals. Over the past 18 years, he has served in three hospitals. Reflecting on his time with us, Bruce shares why he finds volunteering rewarding and his vital role in patient care at Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center: "Volunteering is very rewarding and provides an opportunity to give back to the community for many of the blessings I have received from others over the years. I am a people person and look forward to assisting visitors and guests with their needs and requests. I chose to volunteer at Legacy Salmon Creek after a residential move closer to my home. Visiting a hospital for some can be stressful, all the more reason to be helpful. When the opportunity came up to be in the Intensive Care Unit, I jumped at it. With my spiritual and faith level, it was a good fit. I'm proud to be a part of Clark County's only five-star hospital." Volunteering is a meaningful way to give back and gain experience in healthcare. If you're interested in joining us, learn more here: https://bit.ly/3QghMzc
