ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø is grateful to have the support of the Portneuf Health Trust, who recently hosted an Executive Challenge that included over 1,700 miles of walking and a $12,000 donation to the ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø Department of Family Medicine. 
 
The Portneuf Health Trust challenged local community leaders, CEOs and others to complete a 142 mile walk, virtually, to the peak of Mt. Borah. The group included ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø President Kevin Satterlee and ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø Athletic Director Pauline Thiros, along with Pocatello Mayor Brian Blad, Bannock Development Corporation CEO MiaKate Kennedy, Pocatello Police Chief Roger Schei, Health West CEO Mindy Benedetti, Farm Bureau Insurance CEO Todd Argall and others. Overall, Mayor Brian Blad tracked the most steps, with an average of 17,000 per day. 
 
The Portneuf Health Trust, a longtime supporter of ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø, provided $1,000 for each executive who completed the trek. A total of $12,000 was provided to support the training of physician, psychiatry and pharmacy residents in the Department of Family Medicine at ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø. The check was presented at the Health West ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø clinic, one of the locations where residents complete the majority of their specialized training. Health West, Portneuf Medical Center and the Portneuf Health Trust are integral partners in the education and training of ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø students and residents.
