    Inova Hospital Celebrates Centennial
    photoPhoto Courtesy/Inova Loudoun Hospital Hundreds of people don surgical masks and form the number 100 to celebrate Inova Loudoun Hospital’s 100th anniversary June 23 at Ida Lee Park in Leesburg, and to set a new world record for the most people similtaneously wearing surgical masks.

    For the month of June 2012, the Inova Loudoun Hospital has been celebrating its 100th anniversary.

    On June 5, 1912, the first Loudoun Hospital opened in a rented office in Leesburg. Now, two campuses – one in Leesburg, and the main campus in Lansdowne – have been serving the community.

    The hospital had a cake made by the Market Salamander’s esteemed pastry chef Jason Reaves to resemble the years of growth the hospital has seen. Additionally, Reaves made sheet cakes for employees that were handed out June 21 and 22 at the two campuses.

    On June 23, Inova threw a huge celebration at Ida Lee Park for the whole community and attempted to break a Guinness World record of having the most people wearing surgical masks at the same time. Games, face painting and other fun was available for all families who attended.

Paz’s mother and grandmother say the child already has healthy eating habits; she loves vegetables and prefers broccoli to french fries. The family came to the free event to enjoy activities such as a rock wall and caricature drawings, as well as educational displays about health.

Her father Mark Simpson is scheduled to get knee replacement surgery Monday and is very pleased with the treatment he has received from Inova hospitals. “I liked all their physical therapists. I asked for very aggressive therapy and they said no problem,” he said.
