RWJ Hamilton Observes Camp Fire USA's "Absolutely Incredible Kids Day"
Bibs Given to Newborns to Signify that Babies are Off to Good Start

3/16/2007

HAMILTON, NEW JERSEY – Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton (RWJ Hamilton) celebrated March 15 as "Absolutely Incredible Kids Day" with babies and their parents who were patients in the hospital's Maternity department. Each newborn was given a bib provided by Camp Fire USA that was imprinted with the saying "Absolutely Incredible Kid."

A bib with the inscription "Absolutely Incredible Kid" is presented to Erica Morales of Trenton on behalf of her son, Dereon Meyers, by Maureen Cuttre, RNC, of Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital Hamilton. RWJ Hamilton presented the bibs to newborns and their parents who were patients in the hospital's maternity unit on March 15 as part of "Absolutely Incredible Kids Day." The annual event, which includes a letter writing campaign to children, is sponsored by Camp Fire USA.

Camp Fire USA is one of the nation's leading not-for-profit youth development organizations, serving nearly three quarters of a million participants annually. The organization's "Absolutely Incredible Kids Day," in its 10th year, promotes that letters of encouragement and support be written by caring adults to reinforce how each child is valued and appreciated.

RWJ Hamilton will be celebrating an expansion of its maternity services this April when the hospital's Lakefront Tower expansion building opens to patients. The hospital's maternity department is growing from 14 to 30 private rooms to better serve the greater Mercer County Community.
