🎄💙 Thank you to Flawless Salon & Beauty Bar in Herkimer for spreading holiday cheer to our NICU and Pediatric patients!

The salon hosted a Wish Christmas Tree, inviting clients to select wishes and donate items for our youngest patients. The donations were dropped off this morning – and we’re excited to share this was the largest donation they’ve ever received from their clients. They're already planning to do this again next year!

We are so grateful for this incredible community support!

💙 A heartfelt thank you to Isabella for her continued generosity!

For the past few years, Isabella has organized a coloring book and crayon drive to support our pediatric patients. This year, her donation – along with contributions from her aunt Gigi and her hair salon – will benefit children being cared for in our Emergency Department.

We’re so grateful for community members like Isabella who help bring comfort and smiles to our kids when they need it most. 🎨🖍️

Each month, Dr. Khan and Steve Olson, director of Nursing in the ED, recognize outstanding ED providers, nurses and staff. This week, we recognized two team members for their outstanding commitment to their patients and for always going above and beyond.

Laila Russitano, a night shift patient care technician, was recognized for being a great communicator and compassionate with all of her patients. (Laila was not present at the recognition.)

Mony Seng, a day shift nurse, was recognized for always working as hard as she can for this organization, often seven days a week.

Congratulations Laila and Mony!
