IHC hospitals outline new visiting policies for flu season

Hospital sign

In order to offset the spread of H1N1 or seasonal flu to patients in hospitals, Intermountain Healthcare announced stricter visitation policies.

According to the new rules:

  • Children under 14 years of age are not allowed in Intermountain Healthcare hospitals during the flu season unless they actually are patients
  • Only 2 visitors at a time in a patient's room
  • Patients with cold or flu symptoms will be required to wear a mask and wash hands frequently

The Utah Hospital Association recommended the changes in order to prevent the spread of the H1N1 virus and the seasonal flu.

For more information regarding flu season go to the Utah Department of Health at: http://health.utah.gov.

Motivational Monday: Trust + Love = Lasting Friendship!

Motivational Monday - Sebastian & Dixie

It seems that our household is a safe haven for lost, discarded and abandoned animals.

This is Dixie the Cat and my son. At football practice one evening, Sebastian saw movement under a pine tree in the park. Once practice was over, he went to see what it could possibly be.

To his surprise, it was small kitten! And this kitten wanted-to-play-and-they-did! By the time my husband arrived to pick him up, Sebastian had decided we needed to bring this baby home, of course, with our permission.

How could we say NO? Needless to say, we gained another family member that day! As you can see, they truly are friends and it does look like Dixie is smiling!

Speechless Sunday (Almost!): Jumping in!

Jumping in!

One of our favorite family places to go fishing & camping is Otter Creek Reservoir in Antimony, Utah. When we finish for the the day, the boys LOVE jumping off the boat and taking a swim, always racing each other back! The temperature of the water is usually around 60 degrees and they just relish it with shrieks of laughter and splashing each other!

It's great fun...even if you are just watching!
