When Robert Morrison felt heavy pain in his chest and groin, he worried it was something serious.

It took one message through the MyHealth Info Patient Portal to confirm that he was right: His primary care provider urged him to come to NH+C’s Emergency Department (ED).

Once here, teams from the ED, Imaging, and Lab worked together, each step flowing smoothly as they checked his heart, scanned for internal issues, and reviewed results. His diagnosis: severe acid reflux. Thankfully, not a heart attack.

Robert started medication and worked with his primary care provider, Dr. Adam Ailabouni, on a lasting solution.

“I like how it was all connected: I reached out to my doctor on the portal, and the portal reached out to the nurse, who reached out to me, who sent me to the ED,” Robert says. “I like how the departments work together to make sure the patient is safe.”

Think you have the flu? Influenza can hit hard – but appropriate care can help you feel better, faster, and reduce the risk of it spreading to others.

Symptoms include a high fever, cough, sore throat, headache, tiredness, muscle and body aches, a runny or stuffy nose, and occasionally vomiting and diarrhea.

When you’re under the weather, we recommend you:
• STAY HOME, especially until you’ve been fever-free for at least 24 hours.
• Rest up and drink plenty of fluids, including teas or other warm beverages.
• Consider a humidifier if the air inside is dry.
• Treat headaches or fever with acetaminophen or ibuprofen, and use cough drops when needed.
• Understand when you should go seek medical care. To help you make that decision, we put together some fast facts to help you navigate this flu season. Explore them by following the link below.

For Sladjana Cvijetinovic, third time was the charm.

When Sladjana’s third son Anze was born, she worried he might have trouble with breastfeeding like his two older brothers did.

Lactation consultant Nicole Martens, MAN, CNP, IBCLC helped Sladjana gauge how much her baby was eating – building up his weight, and her confidence, at the same time.

“Working with Nicole eased my anxiety,” Sladjana says.

Our lactation specialists provide you with education and support to help make breastfeeding a positive experience for you and your new baby . . . wherever your baby was born. (Not born at Northfield Hospital? We'll need a referral from your provider to establish your care here.)

When winter keeps you indoors, staying active can still be simple.

Short walks around the house, light stretching, going up and down the stairs, or doing a few strength exercises can keep your body moving. Even small bursts of activity help your joints, your balance, and your mood.

If you are looking for ways to stay active this season, start with what feels manageable and build from there. Every bit of movement makes a difference.

Jake Kasel took a hard fall on a cold winter day.

He was on his backyard hockey rink gathering pucks when his skate slipped. He hit his head, had a seizure, and required emergency surgery. Afterward, Jake spent days in a medically induced coma. When he woke up, he came to NH+C, determined to recover.

“I wasn’t just going to lay in bed and be there for a month,” Jake says. “I set the bar with my doctors, nurses and therapists that I had a mission to get out of the hospital as soon as possible.”

With support from our physical, occupational and speech therapy teams, Jake began rebuilding his strength through small, steady steps – always aiming high.

Health care that feels like home

It was an unusual way to celebrate a birthday. But then, 100 isn’t your typical birthday.

Margit Fredrickson was turning 100. Her son Karl thought she’d like to meet a baby who shares her birthday . . . 100 years apart. He called the Birth Center at Northfield Hospital that day to ask if any new babies had arrived. That’s how Margit met Waylon, just hours after he was born.

We’re proud that Northfield Hospital is a place where community connects . . . for over 115 years.

Our hospital and clinics provide state-of-the-art care in a tranquil environment that’s easy to reach, easy to navigate, and always welcoming. Our providers and staff are here for you in your happiest . . . and hardest . . . moments.
