Congratulations to Kirstyne, Casey and Lisa, Family Birth Center, for being honored as Winona Health Heroes!
November 16, 2023
“The Family Birth Center team went above and beyond to help keep me comfortable and confident in delivering my son. Even though it was my 3rd delivery, there is always uncertainty, pain, and fear. Katie was amazing at making me feel at ease and valued not just during birth but also throughout my journey leading up to birth. She is funny, caring, and compassionate. I feel very lucky to have had her by my side! The nursing staff were calm, kind, and very attentive the entire time leading up to the birth of my son and afterwards. I’m thankful for their professionalism and companionship. Tricia was amazing at staying calm and quick to attend to me when I was delivering my child. Casey was so friendly and receptive to my ever-changing needs! Kirstyne was there at the start and incredibly friendly and compassionate. It was obvious to me that she truly cared about me and caring for others. Lisa was there to help with all my breastfeeding questions and concerns, and I truly felt no judgment on her end for my decisions on how to feed my baby. I struggled with breastfeeding in the past, but she made me feel at ease and supported. I know there were other staff members who supported and helped me, and they were all great, but these women went above and beyond to give me the best care, and for that, I am so grateful! Thank you!”
