Hope and Healing: People, Healing, And Improving Healthcare

Intermountain Healthcare
"If the world is cruel at times, I want to be part of the counterbalance to that."

Marc Harrison and Katy Welkie, two healthcare leaders, first worked together at a Utah hospital in the 1990s, when Dr. Harrison was completing a pediatric intensive care fellowship and Katy worked as a nursing director. The two shared — and continue to share — a passion for people, healing, and improving healthcare. "If the world is going to be cruel at times, I want to be part of something that tries to be the counterbalance to that."
