Whereas McKay-Dee Hospital and its predecessors have
offered 100 years of continuous health care service to the residents of
northern Utah from 1910 to 2010;
Whereas tens of thousands of hardworking individuals have
devoted their lives to the care, concern, and healing of patients at the three
hospitals that have become Intermountain McKay-Dee Hospital and Medical
Center;
Whereas hundreds of thousands of Utah residents have
received medical care during McKay-Dee’s 100 years of service;
Whereas McKay-Dee Hospital represents the fulfillment of
Annie Taylor Dee’s dream to provide access to high quality health care for the
residents of northern Utah;
Whereas McKay-Dee Hospital's contributions to the
community at-large come in many more ways than simply providing traditional
hospital-based health care services;
Whereas every Dee, McKay, and McKay-Dee facility has
offered innovative medical technology; and
Whereas Intermountain Healthcare was recently recognized
as a national model for providing quality and affordable healthcare: Now,
therefore, be it
That the House of
Representatives—
(1)recognizes the 100th anniversary of the
establishment of the McKay-Dee Hospital in northern Utah; and
(2)commends McKay-Dee
Hospital and its employees for providing quality care to hundreds of thousands
of patients over the last century.
