Timpanogos Regional Hospital

One of the responsibilities of a chaplain is to help patients process treatment choices while exploring patient and family fear, anxiety, or discouragement. Chaplains don’t seek to sway their decision but instead help them explore their own thoughts and feelings about the options available to them. Meet Tracey Christensen, a PRN chaplain at Timpanogos Regional Hospital. When asked why she serves as a chaplain, Tracey responded, “I have been in challenging times supporting loved ones medically and I want to help others feel comfort, peace or at least cared for emotionally and spiritually when they are at the hospital.” When not at the hospital, Tracey works on the charity that she and her husband founded that provides physical therapy for kids with disabilities. Thank you, Tracey, for the great work you do! #WeShowUp #ImproveMoreLives

It's EMS week and Timpanogos Regional Hospital is celebrating those serving in our community. 🚑 This week we pause to recognize the contributions of each generation, the people who dreamed that we could save more lives and have less suffering, and then found ways to make it happen.
