✔ Clear communication

Every improvement we make helps ensure our community receives the safest, highest-quality care possible.

Did you know most car seats are installed incorrectly?

Something as small as a loose strap or misplaced chest clip can make a big difference in a crash.

Quick safety reminders:
• Chest clip should be at armpit level
• Straps should pass the “pinch test” (no slack)
• Puffy coats should NEVER be worn under harness straps
• Kids should stay rear-facing as long as their seat allows

If the harness looks comfortable and loose — it’s probably not safe.

❤️ A Heart for Helping Others

Cowen W. Rice is only 15 years old, but his impact on heart patients in our community is already remarkable.

Born with a heart defect that was successfully repaired more than 10 years ago, Cowen has spent the past several years turning his own journey into a mission to help others facing heart disease. Through CRMC's annual Heart 2 Heart event, Cowen, along with his family and his supporters, have been raising funds for the Cardiac Rehab Scholarship Program at Coffee Regional Medical Center for the past five years.

This year alone, Cowen raised $3,660, bringing his five-year total to an incredible $11,952 in support of cardiac patients who need rehabilitation services.

Cowen’s dedication is a powerful reminder that one heart — and one determined young man — can make a meaningful difference in the lives of so many others. We are incredibly proud of Cowen and grateful to the Rice family for their continued commitment to helping heart patients in our community. 💙

We’ll be sharing more information soon from this year’s Heart 2 Heart Race!

Not every newborn goes home without a bump in the road — and one of the most common is jaundice.

Jaundice happens when babies have higher levels of bilirubin, which can cause yellowing of the skin and eyes. The good news? It’s very treatable.

Because of support from KidsABC, Coffee Regional Medical Center now has state-of-the-art bili lights that safely lower bilirubin levels while keeping babies comfortable and close to mom and dad. Safety always takes priority in newborn care. The new system is designed for efficiency and precision. It ensures intensive yet safe LED phototherapy with reduced risk of skin damage and water loss.

Care close to home matters… especially in the first days of life.
Thank you, KidsABC, for helping us care for our tiniest patients.
