Our 24th annual Cops for Kids Fly-In is in the books! 🚁👮‍♀️

Law enforcement from across Southern California came together yesterday to lift the spirits of our young patients. Helicopters touched down as a motorcade of squad cars, police motorcycles, and SWAT trucks filled the north lawn.

After kids got their fill of exploring these vehicles and talking to our first responders, officers from various departments handed out hundreds of toys and books to children who were unable to leave their hospital rooms.

A big thank you to all the agencies that participated, including the Riverside Police Department, San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, Los Angeles Police Department, California Highway Patrol, and the FBI - Los Angeles. ❤️

This event was made possible by our two sponsors: Paradise Chevrolet and La Loma Federal Credit Union.

This October 19–24, we celebrate Respiratory Care Week and honor the dedicated respiratory care practitioners (RCP), also known as respiratory therapists, who provide life-sustaining care to patients across all areas of our hospitals.

RCPs are essential to patient care across nearly every department, from the operating room to the emergency department, pulmonary function labs, hyperbaric medicine, and inter-facility Transport. Their expertise in critical care and cardiopulmonary medicine helps patients with acute and chronic conditions breathe easier.

Our Children’s Hospital teams continue to support the pediatric patients and await the expansion of the neonatal ICU service.

Thank you to all our RCPs for the compassion, skill, and strength you bring to your patients and colleagues every day. Your work embodies our mission to continue the teaching and healing ministry of Jesus Christ.

Breastfeeding not only benefits babies but, it also lowers the risk of mothers developing breast cancer. 🤱 Research shows that for every 12 months of breastfeeding, a woman's breast cancer risk decreases by 4.3%.

Elaine Hart, MD, FACOG, an obstetrician/gynecologist, explains this connection: "When you're breastfeeding, you often don't ovulate, and that means your body isn't producing as much estrogen and progesterone. Since breast cancer is frequently hormonally driven, that reduction lowers the risk."
