Quote of the Day

Patient Testimonial
We recently received this awesome feedback from one of our patients. Way to go team!
"On Wednesday the 14th I had surgery at your hospital. I have a long history of post op nausea and vomiting and was not looking forward to surgery, and in fact I had avoided it for years. This has turned out to be my best experience with anesthesia/surgery yet. From the time I was first contacted by the pre-op nurse to the time I left the building, everyone that I and my wife encountered was very pleasant and professional, friendly and helpful. As a retired firefighter/paramedic and my wife is a retired nurse we have seen a lot of hospitals and yours is top notch. I especially want to thank the anesthesia crew. They listened to me and did everything they could to alleviate my concerns. I was absolutely amazed by the robot in surgery. And my recovery nurse was great. I would not hesitate to recommend your hospital to anyone."
Al's Sporting Goods
2020 Corporate Night
Mountain View and Idaho Falls Community Hospital staff and their family members are invited to Al’s Sporting Goods’ annual Corporate Night Private Sale Event on Thursday November 12, 2020 2395 E 17th Street Idaho Falls, Idaho.
The private sale begins at 5 PM and ends at Midnight.
This is a special event and closed to the public. On this night only, Al’s will be offering us their CEO/Managers pricing for a few key partner corporations in our area. This deal is very good and is only offered once a year to anyone outside of Al’s Sporting Goods. The discounts are deep and go on For-ev-er. Employees will save anywhere from 25% to 40% in most departments and some exclusions may apply.
To make it easier for you to know the prices, a flyer will be handed out at the door with instructions. This should allow individuals to scan any of the products to see Al’s special pricing.
Here’s a little information about Al’s Sporting Goods for those who are new to the area or haven’t had the opportunity to shop at Al’s Sporting Goods:
Al's Sporting Goods has been doing business in Cache Valley (Logan Utah) for over 99 years, and we recently opened a third location near you on 17th Street in Idaho Falls. This facility is a 40,000 square foot, full line sporting goods store that carries gear for hunting, fishing, camping, skiing, snowboarding, athletics, team sports, footwear, cycling and water sports. We carry the biggest brands in the sports world and proudly consider ourselves to be Utah's best sporting goods store. Our Corporate Night sale event is held once a year to give neighboring businesses exclusive deals store wide, and it is always a smashing success. We would love to have you attend!
All you need is a copy of this flyer OR your employee badge at the main front entrance of the store, where you’ll be greeted by an Al's Sporting Goods team member. You can also take a picture of the flyer and present the picture at the main front entrance. Families can be represented by the employee.
We Need Volunteers!
If you'd like to sign up for the upcoming Blood Drive, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Velisha Howard.

Hospital Week Coupon Extended
For those employees who received a hospital week coupon during the month of May and have not yet redeemed your coupon, this message is for you.
The vendors have agreed to extend the expiration of the coupon until November 30th. (Sadly, we do not have any spare coupons to replace lost coupons.)
Say Thank You!
In these trying times it’s nice for employees, patients, and visitors to see the smiling eyes of the Mountain View and IFCH front door screeners.
Since the Covid-19 precautions started in March, employees from various departments and clinics have shared the thankless task of screening every person who walks through our doors by taking temperatures, asking ever-evolving questions, directing patients and visitors to various destinations, and dealing with frequent changes in policy. Most of these people have dedicated many hours beyond their regular shifts to do this task.
Through it all, these employees have demonstrated the customer service that Mountain View is known for, standing to greet each person with a smile (you can see it in the eyes and cheeks even when a mask is worn), a warm welcome, and a gracious manner even when some patients, visitors, and even employees have grown frustrated with the precautionary measures Covid-19 has brought into our current lifestyle.
Don’t hesitate to give these hardworking people a smile and a kind word to brighten their day because we couldn’t do what we do without their service.
