Magnolia Regional Medical Center is proud to be a host site for the UAMS Area Health Education Center (AHEC) Safety Baby Showers.Held bi-monthly, the Safety Baby Showers provide education and resources to expectant moms. The program covers child passenger seat safety, sleep safe practices, injury prevention, and many more useful topics for moms-to-be.
The Safety Baby Showers are funded by grants through State Farm Insurance and Blue & You. The grants allow for attendees to not only receive valuable information, but also take home some great items.
According to Rebecka Wendling, Community Outreach Coordinator for AHEC South Arkansas, each participant receives a car seat, play yard, and a bag full of items to make your home a safer environment for your child.
Following the event, expectant moms make appointments to have their new car seats installed in their vehicles by a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician.
Safety Baby Showers are held bi-monthly at Magnolia Regional Medical Center free of charge to the attendees. To sign up or receive more information, expectant moms should call Tiffany Ross at 870-881-4428, or Adriane Delaney at 870-235-3532.
