A family waiting room in L+M’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) has been renovated thanks to the generosity of the Auxiliary of L+M Hospital, turning the space into a welcoming oasis with soft lighting, comfortable seating, a refrigerator, microwave, counter space – even a journal for family members to express their thoughts.

L+M thanks the Auxiliary, and interior designer Sheri Giancarlo, for all the support and help. The NICU family room will now provide extra comfort and peace for families while their tiny babies grow stronger in the region’s only intensive care unit for newborns.

As one grandmother wrote in the room’s journal, “One day you’ll look back and realize just how brave you and your baby were in this season. Until then, take it one heartbeat, one breath, one moment at a time.”

Leaders from Perioperative Services at both Lawrence + Memorial (L+M) Hospital and Westerly hospitals recently took time out of their busy schedules to volunteer at the Gemma E. Moran United Way/Labor Food Center in New London.

The team members spent a couple of hours with the Gemma Moran team sorting food for upcoming distributions to help feed families in need throughout the region.

As one of the hospital leaders noted, “it’s a great day when we can have a team building event while also giving back to the community. The Gemma Moran food center is an incredibly valuable resource in our community and we were proud to be able to help. We encourage others to do the same.”

Congratulations to Jonathan Ellis, CRT, on receiving the 2025 PHIL Award for outstanding care in the field of Respiratory Therapy. With more than 20 years of experience, Jonathan has been helping patients breathe easier for a long time. His nominations from peers called Jonathan kind, giving, funny, compassionate, vigilant, professional, knowledgeable and a huge asset to the hospital.

The PHIL Award, established by The FACES Foundation in 2006, was named in memory of Philip C. Lamka, a patient who passed away from Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD), but not before experiencing vital support from RTs like Ellis. The PHIL Award is the only hospital-based recognition program in the United States dedicated exclusively to respiratory therapists, making it a unique and significant award.

Lawrence + Memorial (L+M) Hospital offers a new type of cardiac ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib), the most common type of abnormal heart rhythm (cardiac arrythmia). “Pulsed field ablation represents an exciting advancement in the treatment of AFib.

This technology allows us to treat patients more efficiently, with less impact on surrounding tissue, and potentially faster recovery times. Our goal is always to provide the safest and most effective care for patients living with AFib”, said Ralph DeBiasi, an electrophysiologist at the L+M Hospital’s Heart and Vascular Center, and assistant professor of Cardiovascular Medicine, Yale School of Medicine.

❤️ Family. Friends. A safe ride home.

Before the celebration begins, make your plan:
1️⃣ Arrange a rideshare or taxi.
2️⃣ Choose a sober designated driver.
3️⃣ Stay the night if you’ve been drinking.

Because one impaired choice can change lives forever.
Let’s say CT Not One More to impaired driving.
