Maternal Health Month is observed in May to raise awareness about maternal health, maternal mental health, and efforts to prevent maternal mortality while improving care for all mothers.

May is National Skin Cancer Prevention and Melanoma Awareness Month.

Skin cancer — including melanoma as well as basal and squamous cell carcinomas — is the most common of all cancer types.

The American Cancer Society estimates that in the United States this year there will be about 100,350 new cases of melanoma, the most dangerous form of skin cancer, and about 3.5 million cases of basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma.

Most of these three types of skin cancer are caused by exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation primarily from the sun. However, only a little over half of American adults use sun-protection measures.

The good news is that if diagnosed and treated early, skin cancer can often be cured. But if the disease is allowed to progress, it can result in disfigurement and possibly death. Do a self-check of your skin, wear your sunscreen, and ask your physician to look at any areas of concern.

This week's Employee Spotlight is Alexandra Wilthew, RN in NICU.

As a young nursing student in Ohio, I wasn't completely sure which area of nursing I'd like to pursue. That is, until the day we toured a NICU, and I was handed the smallest diaper I'd ever seen in my life. That's when I knew EXACTLY what I wanted to do!

As a NICU and Postpartum nurse at Baptist Health Deaconess in Madisonville, I have the privilege to provide care for our tiniest (and cutest!) patients and their families. What an honor it is to stand alongside parents, supporting them through navigating the unique challenges that come with having a baby in the NICU. What a joy to celebrate with them over each milestone reached, no matter how small. I feel grateful every day to be a part of the stories of each new beginning. I wouldn't want to do anything else!

Thank you, Alexandra for being part of our team!

Congratulations to all our area graduates!Stay healthy and happy as you pursue your dreams.
