🤰A delivery (C-section) can be the safest option when certain concerns come up during pregnancy or labor – helping protect both you and your baby. C-sections are major abdominal surgery, and the most common surgery performed for pregnant patients in the U.S. If you’re preparing for childbirth, talk with your obstetrician about what may be the best path forward for you and your baby.

Here, Dr. Cindy Celnik, chief medical officer for HCA Healthcare Women’s Services, explains why doctors perform C-sections and what to expect if a C-section becomes part of your delivery experience.

Across our broader HCA Healthcare network, caregivers support more than 200,000 births each year, with care that’s personalized to you and your family. Looking for an obstetrician? Meet our experts and schedule an appointment: https://bit.ly/4ceGJ8g

Food security is health security. When families struggle to put food on the table, it impacts their ability to manage chronic conditions and thrive. TriStar Health is committed to addressing the real-world factors that affect health, including access to nutritious food.

Today, we are proud to announce that the HCA Healthcare Foundation will give $2 million to Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee to support the development of their new Grow for Good campus in our hometown of Nashville, Tennessee.

Second Harvest is the largest hunger relief organization in Tennessee, serving 46 counties throughout the state. HCA Healthcare and the HCA Healthcare Foundation have supported Second Harvest for more than 25 years, including helping launch the organization's School Food Pantry Program, which now provides consistent access to food for students and families directly at schools. The collaboration also includes hosting monthly Mobile Markets at HCA Healthcare's TriStar Southern Hills Medical Center to address food insecurity in the community and supporting a pilot of the Food Is Medicine intervention program, which integrates nutritious food directly into healthcare to help patients experiencing food insecurity receive medically supportive foods alongside their care.

Born at just 24 weeks, twin brothers Jahleel and Justus faced tremendous challenges, including a lengthy NICU stay and a cerebral palsy diagnosis. With the support of TriStar Summit Medical Center's outpatient rehabilitation program, these bright boys are achieving major milestones.

Now three years old, Jahleel and Justus attend occupational, physical and speech therapy twice weekly, and their care team helps them make remarkable strides.

From walking with gait trainers to feeding themselves, each milestone is a reflection of their resilience and of the commitment of their expert care team: Aubrey Poythress, Kayla Murphy and Raynor Murphy.

“They are incredible advocates for my sons,” said Talitha Yarbrough, the twins' mom. “They’re not just doing their jobs — they show a deep love for your kids.” 💙

“Sometimes the bravest leaps aren’t from airplanes. They’re the ones we take toward healing, hope and new beginnings.”

After surviving a devastating house fire that resulted in serious burns, Bruce Hill turned to TriStar Skyline Medical Center for burn care. What began as treatment with burn surgeon Dr. Tommy Tran transformed into an invigorated purpose and a friendship founded in humor and respect.

A recovery advocate, Bruce skydives with a group of survivors to honor those who lost their lives to addiction and to celebrate the freedom found in recovery. Unable to jump himself, Bruce joked with Dr. Tran before surgery, "You'll just have to jump for me this year."

And he did. Dr. Tran kept his promise. Because healing goes far beyond the physical.🪂

For complex cases, TriStar Skyline provides specialized burn care as one of 11 American Burn Association recognized burn centers within our broader HCA Healthcare network.
