For the ninth year in a row, Kori Robino organized a Christmas Eve gift giveaway for families spending the holidays in Jefferson Abington Hospital's Special Care Nursery (NICU). Robino first organized the giveaway in honor of her daughter Colette, a former NICU patient. Grateful for the care they received, Robino and her daughter continue to pay it forward with the now annual holiday tradition. NICU families were surprised with gift bags full of preemie-sized clothing, baby care essentials and self-care items for families. The special holiday surprise was also made possible thanks to Today is a Good Day, a local non-profit that supports NICU families.

We’re excited to share that Jefferson Lansdale Hospital has earned national recognition from Becker's Hospital Review as one of just 518 hospitals nationwide with the lowest catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) rates, based on 2024 data from CMS and the CDC.

Achieving a zero CAUTI rate is a milestone worth celebrating and a testament to the teamwork, consistency and commitment behind exceptional care. This recognition shines a light on the daily work that strengthens the care for everyone who walks through our doors.

Choosing a baby name is one of the first big decisions parents make, and it often reflects family traditions, culture or even a little local pride.

Across Jefferson Health in 2025, Sophia topped the list for girls, while Noah led the way for boys. But popular culture played a role too, with names like Cooper, Jalen, Harper and even Kelce making the list. From classic favorites to truly unique picks like Miracle and Wonder, parents found meaningful ways to welcome their newest arrivals.

The BEE Award for Extraordinary Caregivers honors team members who go above and beyond to support nurses and patients alike, and Maria Cruz embodies that spirit completely. Though new to Lansdale, Maria has quickly become family to the ICU, known for her compassion, thoughtfulness, and unwavering dedication. From finding a lost patient’s phone buried in linen bags to bringing a Spanish-speaking patient comfort through a meal from home, her kindness leaves a lasting impact. Maria’s warmth, generosity, and genuine care make her an irreplaceable part of our team and a truly deserving BEE Award recipient.

We’re proud to share that Dr. Asoka Balaratna and Dr. Aswin Mathew recently performed the first two renal denervation treatments at Jefferson Abington Hospital — an important advancement for patients with hard-to-control high blood pressure.

“This minimally invasive procedure is designed to complement typical high blood pressure treatments. It’s clinically proven to lower blood pressure safely and effectively and keeps working 24 hours a day — like a pill you never have to remember to take.” - Aswin Mathew, MD

Congratulations to Dr. Balaratna, Dr. Mathew, and our entire interventional cardiology team for bringing this innovative option to our community.
