The St. Joseph’s Health Hospital NICU is celebrating its 50th anniversary today. The level III NICU was the first in the region when it opened in 1970. A special day for families and our NICU team past and present. In honor of this special day we'll be celebrating with a Then and Now series to thank all our amazing staff.... I delivered at the height of COVID, and I was scared they’d force me to leave her, but they and the hospital made it work. June stayed a week in the NICU, which I now know is such a small time, but it felt like forever. Every nurse that helped us loved on June like she was their own child. There wasn’t a day that went by that I felt June received anything less than the BEST. I hope to never need to recommend St. Joe’s NICU for anyone, but I tell all my pregnant friends to deliver at St. Joe’s just in case they need the NICU!! -Christine, mom To see more of these amazing little fighters visit: https://nicu.sjhsyr.org/
