October is Safe Sleep and Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) Awareness Month.🚼 Do you know the basics of safe sleep for infants?😴

Childbirth educators Grace Krizek, RN, and Toni Howard, RN, IBCLC, represented Via Christi at the recent Community Baby Shower and Resource Fair hosted by the Sedgwick County Government Health Department’s Healthy Babies program and KIDS Network, Inc.

Grace and Toni taught 115 pregnant moms about labor, delivery, postpartum, breastfeeding, baby care, car seats, infant safety and more. They shared about the award-winning mom and baby care provided in the NewLife Center and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Via Christi St. Joseph.

The ABCs of safe sleep help avoid the risk of SIDS. Babies should sleep:
💤 A- Alone: In a crib or bassinet, free from soft bedding, pillows, blankets or toys
💤 B - Back: On their back; sleeping on the stomach or side increases the risk of SIDS.
💤 C - Crib: In a safe crib or bassinet with a flat mattress, tight-fitting sheet, without wide gaps or bars and without soft objects or toys

Learn more about safe sleep and all the information you need for your baby by registering for our free childbirth education classes. ⬇️

Yes, but what IS a mammogram? Should I be worried about radiation❓

A mammogram is a quick breast x-ray, and does NOT use large amounts of radiation.

If you have questions about your upcoming screening, ask your care team – they’re here to help. 🙋💕

We had a scary good time with our friends from Spirit Halloween yesterday! 🎃👻

THANK YOU to the Spirit store managers for bringing their Spirit of Children pop-up shop to the Pediatric and Pediatric Intensive Care Units at Via Christi St. Francis! In addition to choosing a Halloween costume and accessories, kids enjoyed crafts, snacks, temporary tattoos and more!

This is the eighth year of Spirit Halloween's support of child life services at St. Francis through the annual Spirit of Children fundraiser, which aims to make hospitals less scary for kids and their families by raising donations all through spooky season. Thank you to Children's Miracle Network at Ascension Via Christi for bringing this treat to our patients. 🎈

🧑‍⚕️🍻 Nursing leaders gathered at Social Tap on the Wichita State University campus to celebrate a major milestone with 4th-semester nursing students from the Ascension Via Christi — Wichita State University School of Nursing Capstone Match Day!

The energy was electric as students discovered where they will be spending their capstone placements—from specialized acute care units to emergency and surgical services across our Via Christi hospitals.

Our nursing leadership team loved getting to connect and celebrate with these talented future nurses. Through our ongoing partnership with WSU, we are deeply committed to investing in workforce development and training exceptional healthcare professionals here in Kansas.

To all the WSU nursing students: Congratulations on your placements! We can't wait to welcome you to our units and support you as you take this final step toward your nursing careers. 🏥💛
