November 8, 2025 – HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital hosted a heartwarming celebration this weekend, welcoming dozens of families and their children back for the hospital’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Reunion.
This year’s theme, “Grateful Hearts, Growing Miracles,” honored the strength and resilience of the hospital’s tiniest patients and the compassionate care teams who helped them thrive. Families reconnected with nurses, physicians, and therapists who cared for their babies during some of their earliest and most critical moments.
“It’s a beautiful reminder of why we do what we do every day” said Eric Goldman, CEO of HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital. “Seeing these children growing strong and healthy is truly inspiring for our entire team.”
HCA Florida Lawnwood Hospital’s Level III NICU provides advanced, around-the-clock care for premature and critically ill newborns across the Treasure Coast. The reunion celebrates the milestones and memories shared between families and the caregivers who supported them through their NICU journey.
