The Hospital of Central Connecticut

A warm gift for our tiniest patients.

During the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, students at the University of Connecticut in Storrs created 90 no-sew baby blankets for hospitals with NICUs — including The Hospital of Central Connecticut. These handmade blankets will help keep our smallest patients warm while reminding families that their community is thinking of them.

We’re grateful to these students for turning a day of service into a gesture of comfort and care for the babies and families we serve.

When seconds matter, preparation saves lives.

The Trauma Program at The Hospital of Central Connecticut recently donated 60 tourniquets to officers serving on Connecticut’s community college campuses—helping ensure they have the tools needed to respond quickly in an emergency.

Severe bleeding can become life-threatening in minutes. Having a tourniquet on hand can help control bleeding and save lives before a patient even reaches the hospital. We’re proud to partner with our community to strengthen safety and preparedness across our campuses.

A NICU family came back to The Hospital of Central Connecticut with something special: handmade quilts for our tiniest patients.

They told us how the NICU team changed their lives — and why this gift means so much.

Acts of kindness like this remind us that caring never stops.
