Feeling thankful for hometown healthcare ❤️

Tune in to 13WMAZ tonight at 5:30 PM for the full story!

Just seven weeks after leaving Fairview Park Hospital with a new bundle of joy, Jordan Thomas found herself walking back through our doors - but this time she was visiting the emergency room with a very sick baby girl.

After a positive RSV test and oxygen that was consistently dropping, Anna-Lee was admitted to our Pediatric unit where she was on constant IV fluids and high flow oxygen.

Before being transferred for more acute needs, Jordan says her initial fears were eased by caring staff at Fairview - meeting her right where she was.

“There’s never been a time I came to Fairview and had a negative experience. When I found out we would be transferred out, I was horrified. Our nurse stayed with me in the room, asked me what I needed, and didn’t hurry me to pack up and get ready to leave. She met me where I was.”
-Jordan Thomas, Fairview Mom

RSV is a common virus we see affecting our infant and elderly populations each year, especially during respiratory season. Learn what you can do to stay healthy and to help keep those around you healthy!

Delivering your most precious moments surrounded by your best friends who also happen to be coworkers ❤️

Emmi and Bailee Kight are not only the proud parents to a new bundle of joy, but ALSO both employees at Fairview Park Hospital - Emmi working in Labor & Delivery and Bailee in our Lab!

As you can imagine, when the time comes for you to deliver your baby on the unit that you report to each day for work, it feels like home. Your coworkers who serve alongside you each day now standing with you in your most precious moments.

“It’s not every day that you get to deliver your child surrounded by your best friends! Some people might would think it’s odd to choose to deliver your baby in front of your coworkers, but for us, our coworkers have become family. When it came to the decision of where we would be delivering our second baby, Fairview Park was a no brainer for us. We knew that we would feel heard, loved, and cared for in a way that no other facility could provide. Our stay from the beginning to end was filled with so many friendly faces that expressed their excitement for our newest addition. The women’s services staff provides exceptional care, and it was a privilege to be able to experience that from a patient perspective.” -Emmi & Bailee Kight, Fairview Parents & Employees

Emmi and Bailee, we are so proud for you and your growing family! And we are so glad you shared these precious moments with us here at home - at Fairview ❤️

Congratulations on sweet Baby Kolbie Claire 🥳

Last week we celebrated PeriAnesthesia Week! 🥳

Our PeriAnesthesia colleagues are there before our patients go back for a procedure and are the first faces they see as they begin to wake up in their recovery bay.

They’re both the first and final touch our patients receive here at the facility, and that’s pretty important - first and final impressions. And they’re so good at it!

Apart from that, they care for those patients clinically as they are still resting and recovering from undergoing procedures, with comfort at top of mind.

To our PeriAnesthesia colleagues, thank you for what you do - calming nerves before a procedure and comforting our patients as they recover. What you do is so important ❤️

🏥 Did you know our OR is home to a surgical robot, which makes the healing process faster and more comfortable for our patients? Learn more below!👇🏻

When newborn bliss shifts to everything you fear, who you have around you matters most ❤️

Jordan Thomas was at Fairview just a short 7 weeks ago bringing her daughter into the world - a time of great joy and excitement!

She recently found herself back at Fairview with that same precious baby girl, this time being hospitalized with RSV - a highly contagious virus infecting the lungs - visiting this time burdened with stress and fear.

“There are moments in motherhood that forever change you. When our daughter was just 7 weeks old, what began as simple congestion quickly turned terrifying. The day before our ER trip, she was diagnosed with RSV. We fought so hard and prayed endlessly to keep her safe from it, but the highly contagious virus still found its way to her tiny body. When she stopped eating like she normally did and her breathing became fast and labored, I knew we couldn’t wait any longer.

We spent days at Fairview Park Hospital, and during that time the nurses became our steady ground. They were gentle with my daughter, speaking softly to her, holding her with such care, and watching over her as if she were their own. When we learned she would be transferred to the PICU in Macon, I unraveled. The nurses didn’t rush me through my fear—they stayed, met me exactly where I was, and gave me strength when mine was gone.

Those days were heavy with fear and constant prayer, but also filled with compassion and grace. Fairview Park Hospital will always hold a special place in our story, for the way the staff cared for my daughter—and carried me—through one of the hardest moments of my life. I am so thankful for the God-given hands and hearts that watched over our baby when we needed them most.”
-Jordan, Fairview Mom

We are glad to report that baby girl, Anna-Lee, is back home recovering and getting all the snuggles from her Mama! ❤️

To Jordan and Josh, we know just how scary it is when your whole world - your baby - is the one suffering. We are honored we could respond in your time of need, offer comfort, and help guide you through the unknowns. You’re always a part of the Fairview Family 🫶🏻

To our community, always remember that if the baby isn’t yours, always wash your hands and no kisses during the baby phases, especially during respiratory season! These viruses are caught so quickly, and you can help prevent the spread!

From provider to patient ❤️

Many know Makayla Hardeman because she was either the one delivering their baby into the world or assisting along the way as a Midwife at Fairview Park Hospital!

But this time, she was the patient receiving care from the team she serves alongside so often as they help mothers usher their little ones into the world!

Getting to be served by the team that she serves alongside so often makes for a sweet experience! Here’s what she had to say.

“I’ve had the privilege of welcoming all of my babies with Fairview Park Hospital’s Women’s Center and Dr. Boles or Tonya, CNM. Not only these special moments of my own, but also working there as a patient care tech in nursing school to now a Midwife - I’ve seen time and time again, that these people love their “job”. They come to work and genuinely think of ways to improve patient care. They have felt joy and pain with our patients. They pray for you. And, I can assure you, they’re all gushing over your little bundle of joy when they’re caring for them. The labor nurses are rooting for you at the desk. The doctors care for you like their own family member.

It’s knowing the behind the scenes and being a patient myself, that I would never choose to deliver elsewhere. I can’t say enough great things for this special place to me. I just encourage anyone thats looking for the place to serve you, consider Fairview Park Women’s Center and one of our several phenomenal OBGYNs.

Thank you to all of my friends of the women’s center, the food and nutrition, the housekeeping, and all ancillary staff for making our experience great; and serving our community with some good ‘ole southern hospitality.”
-Makayla, Fairview Mom and Midwife

Makayla, we are so thrilled for you as you enter such a special time with your beautiful baby boy, Charlie! And we’re so blessed to know you, serve alongside you and serve YOU when it’s your time to be the patient ❤️

Holding space for the most sacred moments ❤️

Nine long months.

Every second, every labored breath walking just the length of the hallway, every sleepless night rolling around your extended belly. It’s all led to this.

The moment you meet your miracle.

Deliveries are special. They’re the moment a little life gasps for air for the first time. The moment a mother touches the small human she’s carried for so long. The moment that scared baby feels the warmth of his mother’s skin for the first time. The moment he hears her voice clearly as she whispers “It’s okay. I’m here.”

This is the moment we’re creating space for.

Whether vaginally or via c-section, every mother deserves to experience the quickening of her heartbeat, the excited tears, the adrenaline rush of delivering her baby into this world.

Mackenzie delivered her miracle via c-section, and here’s what she had to say:
•Beyond pleased with Fairview’s L&D care
•Met with compassion from the moment they arrived
•Staff acted with knowledge and skill
•Had a wonderful and memorable delivery

Because you deserve to have sacred moments on the most important day of your life. The day you meet your child ❤️

Fairview is here to care for you and your baby in the most special times - with love, kindness, and compassion.
