🌬️ Now that wind chill is reaching below freezing, you should learn about the risks of frostbite.

❄️ You're especially at risk when temperatures are below freezing (32°F). When wind speed increases, the wind chill will drop making frostbite more likely, like tomorrow's weather!

💦 Frostbite can happen fast. Stay warm, dry and get inside when you are able. Even simple things like plastic bags over socks or newspaper in clothing can help hold in heat. Frostbite can cause permanent damage or amputation if not treated.

🌨️ What to do if you think you have frostbite:
● Get to a warm place immediately.
● DO NOT rub the area - it can cause more damage.
● Warm slowly using body heat, warm blankets or cloth, or warm (not hot) water.
● Try to keep the area from getting cold again - this area will be sensitive to re-injury.
● Keep the area as clean as possible to prevent infection.

🏥 Get medical help as soon as possible for serious frostbite:
● Area remains cold to the touch or numb after warming
● Skin turns waxy, gray, white, blue, or black
● Blisters or darkened form over the cold area

🧣 Stay safe and warm, and always remember our care teams are here for you. 🩵

Celebrating ninth patient safety award in five years 🏆

Via Christi Hospital in Manhattan has earned an “A” Hospital Safety Grade from the Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit focused on patient safety. Leapfrog assigns an "A," "B," "C," "D" or "F" grade to general hospitals across the country based on more than 22 performance measures reflecting accidents, errors, injuries and infections, as well as the systems and protocols hospitals have in place to prevent them.

This is the ninth “A” grade for Via Christi Hospital in Manhattan in the last five years. The hospital previously earned the award in spring and fall 2021, spring 2022, spring and fall 2023, spring and fall 2024, spring 2025, and now fall 2025, reflecting the hospital’s ongoing dedication to patient safety and quality care.

“This recognition by Leapfrog is an acknowledgment of our dedicated caregivers and their steadfast commitment to live out our mission of delivering safe, high quality and compassionate care for all,” said Katie Seay, Board Chair of Via Christi Hospital in Manhattan. “We are proud of our team and the exceptional care they provide for our patients, every single day.”

Leapfrog’s Hospital Safety Grade program is a national rating focused exclusively on hospital safety, preventable medical errors, infections and patient injuries. It is peer-reviewed, transparent and available to the public at no cost, with updated grades published twice annually in fall and spring.

Last week was Forensic Nurses Week, so take a moment to recognize their important work ⬇️

These nurses are important for situations of violence and abuse because they bring special training to treat the trauma associated sexual assault, intimate partner violence, neglect or other intentional injuries.

They also help collect evidence and give testimony that can be used in a court of law to help bring peace and justice to victims. 💜

🫂 We are grateful and thankful to have a dedicated, compassionate and focused team to help protect and heal our community. Thank you for all you do!
