NICU babies receive special visit from Santa

December 24, 2024

The UHS Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) team went above and beyond at UHS Wilson Medical Center to give new parents some holiday cheer this season.

NICU Nurses Deb Kiehle, Lauren Wasser, Kailey Veruto and Anya Edwards helped dress the babies in festive hats and blankets. Deb Kiehle also bought stockings and made bows for the baby girls. Mercedez Merton, our NICU Unit Coordinator, took the photos with Leigh Ann Hiser, RN, playing Santa. NICU Nursing Assistants Madison Weiler, Alexis Ceiri and Elayna Ellerson helped make cards for the parents, too.

Thank you to our nurses for bringing the spirit of the holidays to the NICU, and Happy Holidays from all of us at UHS!
