Santa Visits Lehigh Valley NICU Babies

Santa Spreads Holiday Cheer to the Lehigh Valley’s Tiniest Patients Babies in the neonatal

intensive care unit (NICU) at Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital, part of Jefferson

Health, rang in their first holiday season with a visit from Santa. The region’s tiniest

babies and their siblings posed for photos with Old Saint Nick this week.

Colleagues and parents got in on the fun too, dressing as elves and donning holiday

sweaters. Families enjoyed pizza and activities while listening to holiday tunes.

“I love planning events like this for our families because during the holidays especially,

no one wants to have a child in the hospital,” said Rebecca Salter, NICU Nurse Navigator.
