Dec 24, 2024
SUMMERVILLE, S.C. (WCBD) – An adorable annual tradition for Summerville Medical Center has returned this holiday season.
For the eighth year in a row, nurses at Summerville Medical designed and handcrafted holiday costumes for babies currently in the level III NICU.
Once the outfits were finished, families gathered with their newborns to model the handmade sweater for their first Christmas photo shoot.
Nurses closely monitored the babies during the shoot, adhering to safety and infection procedures.
Hospital officials also wanted to remind parents to always place babies on their backs to sleep with nothing else in the crib.
“Happy holidays to all our Lowcountry families, especially those spending the season with us in the NICU,” Summerville Medical said.
