The director of Baptist grief centers offers tips and support to help families navigate this season while including their loved ones and “engaging in deliberate remembering.” Learn more on the Baptist Better Health blog at https://lnkd.in/eDDFn5-C #BaptistCARES #SurvivingGrief

Campbell and his parents were among 140 families attending the Spence and Becky Wilson Baptist Children’s Hospital Newborn ICU Reunion in September. It’s a special event for families and the staff members who take care of these children, some of whom were born weighing as little as 1 pound. Shannon Rister, RN, is a nurse at Baptist Children’s Hospital and has helped plan these reunions since 2015. Her reason why? “Last year, a mom told me it feels more like a family reunion. Her words meant so much to me because it proved we had done our job to make them feel at home in the NICU. We love these babies and their families, and we really do think of them like family.” Read more about Campbell and Baptist’s NICU Reunion on the Baptist Better Health blog: https://bpt.st/3ZfmB0q #workwhereloveabounds #BaptistCARES #PrematurityAwareness #WorldPrematurityDay
