First Priority Mobile Healthcare

08/31/2026

Women across healthcare are leading teams, managing change, supporting patients and carrying responsibilities that often extend far beyond their job descriptions. The 2026 Women in Healthcare Summit creates space to address the challenges behind that work and strengthen the skills, confidence and connections women need to continue leading effectively.

Through honest conversations about failure, resilience, well-being and leading change, attendees will gain practical insight they can apply to their careers and organizations. The goal is not simply to feel inspired for a day. It is to leave better prepared to navigate difficult moments, advocate for yourself, support others and lead with greater purpose.

Featured sessions include:

“Fast Failures, Strong Leaders” with Michelle Anderson
“The Brave Face: When Strong Women Break” with Andrea Cole
“Thriving, Not Surviving” with Bre Hyler
“Leading the Change” with Shannon Chambers

Wednesday, Oct. 28
10 a.m.–3 p.m.
Stone River in West Columbia

We’re excited to welcome First Priority Mobile Healthcare to the Overland South family for the first time this fall.

People. Purpose. Passion.

Their Event Medicine and Special Operations teams are built to take high-quality medical care beyond the traditional walls of healthcare and into remote environments and specialized operations.

Throughout the weekend, First Priority will be on site providing dedicated EMS and medical coverage so the rest of us can focus on what we came for:

Explore.
Get outside.
Meet some great people.
Enjoy the adventure.

We’re incredibly excited about this partnership and very grateful to have First Priority looking out for our community.

Welcome to the trail family.
