We're so lucky that our have access to the amazing, creative services offered by Art with a Heart in Healthcare!

Salem and her mom recently spent some time in one of our playrooms making clay sculptures. Research shows that hands-on clay art in children’s hospitals can nurture emotional well-being for patients and families alike. Creating something meaningful together helps ease stress, spark connection and bring moments of comfort during a hospital stay. 💙

We've seen some pretty incredible pieces of art over the years, thanks to Art With a Heart, and we look forward to seeing many from our patients! 🎨

Please join us in wishing Jack here a very happy belated birthday! 🥳 🎉

Jack’s journey into the world was not without complications, as his mother Christina went to Labor & Delivery at Baptist Medical Center Beaches after not feeling her son move as much as he usually did. When Jack’s heart rate started to dive, Dr. Peter (with Beaches OBGYN) and the team sprang into action, ran tests, and determined that an emergency C-section was necessary. Here’s Jack’s mom, Christina, on what happened next:

“From there, everything happened incredibly fast, and before I knew it I was in the operating room. Despite the gravity of the situation, Dr. Peter maintained a sense of calm and levity that reassured me during the scariest moment of my life. Her steady presence and confidence as she delivered my son was nothing short of heroic.

Jack was born weighing 3 1/2 pounds and was airlifted to Wolfson Children’s Hospital, where he spent a month in the NICU before being sent home to his loving family. Christina updated us on Jack today, and we were overjoyed to see one of our thriving as much as he is!

“Jack is the happiest, smiliest, most easy-going little guy. We often say he’s just happy to be here, because he truly is!”

Special thanks to Beaches OBGYN & Christina for sharing the story! 💙 💙

🏈 Before the big game kicks off, take a quick timeout for safety. 📺 🛋️

Anchoring heavy furniture and TVs to the wall can prevent them from tipping over and causing serious injuries. Take a moment this week to secure dressers, bookshelves, and flat-screen TVs in areas where kids play or sleep - it's a simple step that can be life-saving. ✅

Fire can spread fast—planning and preparation save lives. 🤝 ❤️

Install smoke alarms on every level of your home, outside every sleeping area, and inside each bedroom. Test alarms monthly and replace them if they’re more than 10 years old, so they’re ready when you need them most.

Having working smoke alarms dramatically increases your family’s chance of escaping safely in a fire. Download our fire safety resource at the link in the comments below to learn more about how you can keep your family safe from home fires. 👇

Inspired by the glass-blown structures of renowned artist Dale Chihuly, patients created their own art with pipe cleaners, styrofoam, beads, and foil. The kids had a great time and created some truly unique works of art! 💙 💙
