Kristin and her team jumped into action. They helped this patient and her family to organize and throw a baby shower in the NICU conference room.
Kristin supports many patients of the fetal care center through incredibly complex pregnancies. One of the things I admire most about Kristin is the way she holds space for celebration and joy for our families whose pregnancies are often otherwise surrounded by a lot of fear and uncertainty.

Recently, a patient who was admitted to DCMC for close monitoring prior to delivery, expressed disappointment that she had been unable to have a baby shower. Kristin and her team jumped into action. They helped this patient and her family to organize and throw a baby shower in the NICU conference room. This patient's husband stated that they and their guests had such a great time that they completely forgot they were in the hospital.

Kristin puts her whole heart into her work and it really shows through the relationships she forms with her patients. Kristin, thank you so much for going above and beyond for our patients. I am immensely grateful to be on your team!
