Gifts from Santa came in the form of compassionate care last week as Loma Linda University Children’s Hospital staff members dressed up in Santa suits while treating patients.
The first Santas Run the Hospital week took place Dec. 4 – 7 as doctors, nurses, and multiple staff donned red suits and white beards to bring patients some extra cheer while receiving treatment.
Hospital mascot Luke the Lion also got involved and took some photos with participating staff in the lobby amidst the festive Gingerbread Village.
Coordinated by the LLU Children’s Hospital Foundation, roughly 120 suits were available to staff with a donation of $20, benefiting Grow Together, the employee giving campaign.
