As part of our 75th anniversary, we revisited photos of caregivers from decades past and recreated them with today’s caregivers. There were a bunch of laughs as we worked to mimic the historic images! In this series, we’ve been sharing these special "then and now" photos that highlight the generations of caregivers who have faithfully cared for Perry County.

This image shows our very first nurse supervisors in 1951, to a few of our current nurse managers along with our director of nursing. Times have changed as we struggled to find a pencil sharpener laying around but the mission remains the same: providing compassionate care and exceptional service close to home. ❤️

We're welcoming Dr. Faith Grove as our newest primary care physician! 👋 The daughter of a longtime Perryville primary care physician, Dr. Grove has returned home to practice in the same community — and the same office — as her father.

She began seeing patients on Aug. 24, almost exactly 36 years after her father, Dr. David Kapp, started his tenure as a Mercy Perry physician on Aug. 13, 1990. Dr. Grove joins a talented team at Mercy Primary Care - 212 Hospital Lane Suite 101B providing comprehensive care for the whole family.

“It’s an honor to come back and serve Perry County,” she said. “There is something special about getting to serve a community that helped raise you into the person you are. Perryville has a really great sense of community and support, and I want to be able to have that as I serve patients here.”

Let's tackle some of the myths about feeding your baby!

Myth: You should always get out of bed and sit up to breastfeed.

Fact: It is actually safer to bring a baby to bed with you than to get up to a chair or couch to breastfeed. Just make sure to push blankets and pillows out of the way.

Myth: Babies need to feed for a certain period of time.

Fact: There is no set time as each mother and baby are different in speed of milk release and transfer. It's best to let the baby decide and follow cues and signs of satiety (open hands, relaxed body, detached or falling asleep) as well as softening of the breast.

Myth: Cluster feeding means the baby isn't getting enough to eat.

Fact: Cluster feeding is a natural way babies increase milk supply, soothe themselves and bond with mom. Babies typically cluster feed in the first few days and again during growth spurts. If you're concerned, request an assessment from a lactation consultant.

Myth: You can't take medications when breastfeeding.

Fact: Most medications are safe for breastfeeding. If you're concerned about a medication you're taking, discuss it with your doctor or lactation consultant.

Myth: You can't have caffeine when breastfeeding.

Fact: A good rule is to limit your intake to around 300 mg per day (roughly 2-3 cups of drip coffee).

Myth: Breastfeeding is always painful.

Fact: It should never be painful. There can be soreness in the first few days, but pain is a sign that help is needed. If you're struggling with pain or ni**le discomfort, reach out to a lactation consultant for help.
