  • Ochsner Health partnered with the City of Kenner for their annual baby shower event, where we celebrated new and expecting mothers. True to our mission of supporting families from the very beginning, we donated car seats, diaper bags and other essential items to help give every child the healthiest possible start. During the event, our nurses, providers, and clinicians were available to connect with the moms, share their knowledge, and discuss important topics, like breastfeeding and newborn care. Thank you to our wonderful team and Hispanics at Ochsner Leading and Advocating (HOLA) for volunteering and making the event a memorable one. #OchsnerServes
