cchosp nurse Ashley Powers knows it is a privilege to play a part in her patients’ #childbirth experience. Ashley came up with the idea to send cards to every patient who has given birth following their delivery. She lets them know that she is there for support and expresses gratitude to the parents for choosing Chester County Hospital. The act quickly gained widespread support and, by the end of last year, the department’s nurses began sending handwritten notes to every mother. “#LaborandDelivery is a unique environment where you can spend a couple hours with a patient or days or weeks,” Ashley says. “During that time, the nurses and patients form very intimate relationships because having a baby is a life-changing experience.” 🔗 in bio for the full story. #DifferenceMakers #PeopleOfPenn #HealthcareHeroes
