SVMC's Registered Dietitian Rachel Rodney, MS, RD, CDE, shares her expert advice for filling lunch bags and boxes with healthier choices this school year. 

Fifteen nurses at SVMC received funds from the SVHC Foundation in support of their continuing education efforts. The funds were provided to the Foundation by the Helen Dixon Kunzelmann Nurse Scholar Program, grants, and donations for nursing education.

As kids go back to school they will be learning about new resources and how to use them. Just like students, you can spend a moment to familiarize yourself with your local health care resources.

The routines and boundaries parents establish for their children make a lasting impact on their social-emotional well being and on their ability to perform well in school and in life.

Employees from 33 departments at Southwestern Vermont Health Care collectively purchased 170 backpacks and filled them with school supplies for local children whose families may have financial difficulty purchasing items for the return to school.

Southwestern Vermont Medical Center has attained its fourth Magnet® recognition from the American Nurses Credentialing Center, the highest honor an organization can receive for excellence in nursing. This fourth consecutive recognition places us in an elite community of only three four-time designees in New England and one of only 31 four-time designees in the world.
