On Monday we wished a happy retirement to Joann Lovell, director of Imaging, Northern Light CA Dean and Mayo Hospitals. Joann started as a CT tech in 1992 on a mobile unit that served Mayo Regional Hospital and other area hospitals. She came on full-time in 1999 when Mayo Hospital installed a fixed-based CT machine. Around 2004 she took on the department leader role at Mayo Hospital, and in recent years, she has also led Imaging at CA Dean Hospital.

Joann has guided the Mayo Hospital Imaging Department through a lot of change over the years, including new equipment and expanded capabilities, the merger with Northern Light Health, and, in 2024, the launch of Maine’s only Mobile Mammography Unit.

While she is still developing her “to do” list, she plans on making the most of retirement: spending time with family and friends, enjoying her new home, and much more.

Congratulations, Joann, on three decades of distinguished service to our hospital, patients, and community. We’ll miss you, and we wish you the best!

Looking for an easy way to remember how to keep your baby safe when they're sleeping?

Here are the “ABCs” of Infant Safe Sleep:

• A - Alone: Your baby should sleep alone in their own crib, bassinet, or play yard. Avoid bed-sharing, and keep the sleep area clear of blankets, pillows, and toys.

• B - Back: Always place your baby on their back to sleep, for both naps and nighttime, for up to their first year.

• C - Crib: Use a safety-approved crib, bassinet, or play yard with a firm, flat, and fitted mattress.

Surgical techs are unsung heroes working behind the scenes to keep our operating rooms running smoothly. During National Surgical Technologists Week, September 21-25, we thank our surgical techs Makenzie and Rhonda (pictured), and Michaela and Ashley (not pictured) for all that they do, from setting up the operating room to arranging equipment and so much more. They work hard every day to help our patients have safe, successful surgeries, and we appreciate them!

Do you know that some medications, including ibuprofen, naproxen, aspirin, and steroids should not be taken, even years after surgery, unless directed by your surgical weight loss team?
