CONTRIBUTED CONTENT — Intermountain St. George Regional Hospital is proud to invite Washington County residents to attend the LiVe Well Health Fair on Saturday from 6-9 p.m. at the St. George Regional Health and Performance Center.
After two years of limiting public events held at the hospital, the celebration will welcome all members of the community to receive a variety of health services provided by the hospital and local not-for-profit health organizations.
To kick off the festivities, a ribbon-cutting ceremony will be held at 6 p.m. at the front entrance of the building to celebrate the new Intermountain Surgery Center – St. George. This new surgery center, located on the second floor of the Health and Performance Center, will focus on orthopedic, spine and urology procedures which will allow for greater efficiencies, high-quality surgical outcomes and lower costs for consumers.
“I’m excited to work in a facility that will be streamlined with the latest technology and designed for specific surgeries,” said Dr. Jordan Ash, anesthesiologist and medical director for the surgery center. “This will also help lower the cost for some of our most common orthopedic surgeries.”
The ribbon-cutting celebrates the final completion of construction for the center, which has been operational in a limited way since June. Attendees may visit the new center and enjoy other health fair offerings as well.
“Our main goal of hosting a health fair is to conveniently provide a variety of health services in one location,” said Laura Murdock, the coordinator for the combined events. “We want anyone and everyone, no matter their age or physical capacity, to attend and learn more about their health.”
Many services and consultations will be free to the public, and it’s a great opportunity for lower-income families to take advantage of the variety of health offerings.
As well as the health fair, a National Dance Day celebration will be held in the parking lot of the Health and Performance Center at the same time. The Keil Krew and St. George Regional Hospital invite the public and dancers of all ages to enjoy the energy and benefits of dance. Local dance instructors will lead the crowd in dance routines to encourage families and friends to live well and stay fit through dance.
The St. George Regional Health and Performance Center is located at 652 S. Medical Center Drive. For more information about the LiVe Well Health Fair, National Dance Day or the Surgery Center ribbon-cutting, please call 435-251-2159 or email [email protected].
