Celebrating 11 Years of High 5 Excellence for Moms & Babies
Stormont Vail Health has earned our 11th High 5 for Mom & Baby Premier recognition, which represents countless moments of support, evidence‑based care, and commitment to practices that strengthen breastfeeding outcomes and help give mothers and babies the best possible start.
Thank you to our Mother & Baby nurses, providers, and support teams for the expertise and heart you bring to this work and for the difference you make in our community.
Flint Hills Campus Receives Junction City Chamber Award
On Thursday, March 12, the Flint Hills Campus was honored with the Eldon L. Hoyle Economic Development Award from the Junction City Area Chamber of Commerce.
Tracy Duran accepted the award on behalf of the campus, joined by Mark Slyter, President and CEO, and several team members from both the Flint Hills Campus and across the Stormont Vail system.
This recognition goes beyond the Flint Hills Campus’ economic contributions—it reflects the meaningful, personal impact our work has on the community. It’s a testament to neighbors caring for neighbors and the dedication our teams bring to serving the region every day. Thank you to Tracy for representing the campus, and to all Flint Hills Campus team members—along with our colleagues across Stormont Vail—for the outstanding work you do.
