Today marks National Gun Violence Awareness Day and the beginning of Wear Orange Weekend in the U.S. In the wake of the recent mass shootings in Buffalo, Texas and Oklahoma, Oishei Children’s Hospital released a statement on the urgent need to address the gun violence epidemic.

Kaleida Health is planning a $6.8 million unit at John R. Oishei Children’s Hospital for pregnant mothers with high-risk pregnancies.

On Friday, May 13, 2022, the Pediatric Residency Program hosted the first annual Community Health & Advocacy Conference led by Dr. Sarah Ventre from the Division of General Pediatrics.

The US Department of Health and Human Services’ Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) launched the Maternal Mental Health Hotline , a confidential hotline for pregnant and new mothers experiencing mental health challenges.

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Oishei Children's Hospital recently reached a major patient safety milestone: 1.5 years CLABSI-free!

Oishei is planning to spend nearly $6.7 million to open a high-risk maternity unit: 12 newly constructed private inpatient rooms that would occupy about 11,000 square feet on the hospital's seventh floor.

The mass shooting in Buffalo last weekend provided yet another example why many in the health field – frustrated that gun safety debates all too often start and end with talk of more background checks and renewed automatic weapons bans – look to reframe the gun-violence conversation as one focused on finding a broader array of data-driven solutions.

Kaleida Health's John R. Oishei Children's Hospital in Buffalo got a major grant Friday that will boost its efforts toward health equity and workforce development.

For the last few years, John R. Oishei Children's Hospital has been pushing to be designated as an "enhanced safety net hospital."
