Wendy Marin, PCA (front) is known as NP11’s “Martha Stewart,” and with good reason. Every year, she chooses a different theme for her beautifully decorated tree and unit displays. Her handiwork brings joy to patients, visitors and staff, including Earlene Wilkins, middle, and Debra Ford, business associate.
Thank you to everyone at the hospital who made the season special for our patients and their families, fellow employees and people in need in our community.
Buddy the Elf left Santa’s workshop to pick up a shift on Surgery (EP 6-5), where he and Business Associate Selinnet Garcia reminded everyone to don appropriate personal protective equipment.
YNHH provided trays of holiday cookies to staff on the day and night shifts, including this crew from Main 6 and SLA 5.
YNHH leaders, including Michael Loftus, senior vice president (far left) joined Food and Nutrition staff on the cookie delivery rounds. Leaders took a few minutes to say thank you to hardworking employees, including this team from the Laboratory.
Staff with SRC’s Receiving department get plenty of deliveries, but this one was different. Department members were grateful for the holiday cookies and the visitors who brought them.
Surgical ICU staff took a quick (and well-deserved) break to enjoy holiday cookies and good company.
The hospital marked Chanukah with menorahs in the York Street Campus Atrium (pictured) and the Saint Raphael Campus lobby. The menorah bulbs were lit each evening of the eight-day festival of lights, from Dec. 18 - 25.
Yes, infection prevention can be festive, as Saint Raphael Campus Food and Nutrition staff members Wanda Marion (left) and Molly Dailey demonstrated with their merry masks.
No chimney? No problem. Santa and a couple of his elves (members of the New Haven Fire Department) used a bucket truck to go window to window and greet Yale New Haven Children’s Hospital patients and staff. Thank you to our Fire Department friends for this much-loved tradition.
Inpatient Medicine Services went all out for patients of Yale New Haven’s Grimes Center.
