Stress Expert Speaks

Stress Expert Speaks

Kathleen Hall, Ph.D., recently presented “A Life in Balance” at the University of Tennessee at Martin. Hall is a nationally recognized author and expert on the effects of stress. She is the author of “A Life in Balance: Nourishing the Four Roots of True Happiness” as well as “Alter Your Life: Overbooked? Overworked? Overwhelmed?” Her presentation highlighted the importance of women “living in balance” by offering simple methods for reducing stress and increasing spiritual well being. Baptist Memorial Hospital-Union City was a corporate sponsor for this event.

Tie A Yellow Ribbon

Baptist Memorial Hospital-Union City wants members of the 913th Engineer Company of the Tennessee National Guard to know how glad we are to have them home. The huge yellow ribbon placed on the Reelfoot Avenue side of the building is a testimony of our appreciation and gratitude. Several members of our staff have family who serve in the 913th. Judy Flowers, who works in outpatient radiology services, is the mother of Brian Flowers, who is a member of the 913th. She joined marketing and public relations coordinator Kara Ward and hospital administrator Don Hutson recently in calling attention to the ribbon, which is lighted at night.
