Memorial Hospital has joined the Spirit of Women, a network of more than 80 hospitals and health systems nationwide that have united to advance the cause and business of women’s health through educational programs and initiatives. One concept that is consistent through all Spirit initiatives is that health education can be fun. Women of all ages are busy taking care of others and Spirit will give women a chance to relax, have fun and take care of themselves for a while.

Section for programs: Memorial’s Spirit programs will consist of:

• Events, such as Day of Dance and Girls Night Out
• Monthly email newsletters on women’s health topics
• Quarterly programs
• Women’s health publications
• And much more!
