Baptist Health Louisville is proud to be named a High Performing hospital in US News & World Report's 2025 Best Hospitals for Maternity Care. This recognition reflects exceptional care, including C-section rates 22% lower, newborn complications 44% lower, and breast milk feeding rates 12% higher than non-recognized hospitals. We're honored to provide the highest level of care for mothers and babies.

In 2023, Kosair for Kids, a nonprofit committed to children's health and well-being, pledged an unprecedented $5 million donation to support Mother & Baby Care services across Baptist Health's eight hospitals in Kentucky and southern Indiana. This historic philanthropic contribution, the largest in Baptist Health Foundation's history, will fund essential equipment and physician-led initiatives to enhance pediatric services. The impact of this gift will be commemorated through our hospitals' first-ever service naming: 'Baptist Health Mother & Baby Care supported by Kosair for Kids.' Beyond recognition, every mother and child receiving care—from pregnancy through postpartum—will directly benefit from Kosair for Kids' transformative support, ensuring they receive tailored and compassionate care that meets their unique needs. This partnership exemplifies how philanthropy can truly change lives and elevate healthcare standards within our communities. https://lnkd.in/eCivTKDa

Tony Pelaski's journey underscores the profound impact of proactive healthcare and the pivotal role it plays in saving lives. Initially recommended a calcium scan by his doctor, Tony had no idea it would uncover a serious threat lurking within his arteries—a ticking time bomb that could jeopardize his heart's health. Armed with this critical information, Tony and his healthcare team swiftly intervened, leading to a transformative journey from diagnosis to triple bypass surgery. His experience highlights not just a medical narrative, but a testament to the life-changing impact of compassionate care and the critical importance of early intervention in preserving health and well-being. https://bit.ly/40zVePz
