Michael Phillips+FollowMarietta kid brings smiles to Akron hospitalA 9-year-old from Marietta, Hudson Wright, turned his own hospital experience into a mission to help others. After starting a small business selling neck gaiters and more, Hudson used his earnings to buy 128 LCD drawing tablets for kids at Akron Children’s Hospital. He even donated his leftover cash! Hudson’s story is a reminder that even the youngest among us can make a big difference. How do you think our community can support more young changemakers like Hudson? Let’s talk about ways to encourage generosity and creativity in our kids! #Safety #Marietta #AkronChildrensHospital00Share
Ashley Johnson+FollowAkron’s new heart unit changes care for kidsFamilies at Akron Children’s Hospital just got a huge boost—there’s now a dedicated heart unit right inside the new pediatric intensive care space. After years of planning, fragile young patients were carefully moved into rooms designed for both comfort and cutting-edge care. What’s different? Kids recovering from heart surgery can stay in the same room as they get stronger, and families have more space (and even showers!). Staff are excited, and parents are relieved to see their children in a space built just for them. How do you think this new setup will impact recovery and family stress? #Health #BodyHealth #AkronChildrensHospital00Share
