What happens to surgical instruments after they’ve been used? 👀

They don’t just go back in a drawer. There’s an entire team behind the scenes making sure every instrument is carefully cleaned, inspected, assembled and sterilized before it’s used again!

That’s Sterile Processing. And their attention to detail helps keep surgical teams equipped, operating rooms ready and patients safe. 💙

From individual instruments to entire surgical trays, every step matters — even the ones most patients never see.

Beginning tonight, we’re shining a light on mental health. 💚

In honor of World Mental Health Day, WakeMed acute care hospitals and WakeMed Mental Health & Well-Being Hospital – WakeBrook are glowing green, the international color for mental health awareness, through the weekend.

The lights are part of WakeMed’s “Let’s Talk Mental Health” effort to encourage conversations about mental health, reduce stigma and remind one another that support and treatment are available.

WakeMed is committed to improving access to mental health care and services, including plans for a new 150-bed Mental Health & Well-Being Hospital in Garner, connected to a 45-bed acute care hospital.

Together, let’s keep talking, listening and supporting one another. 💚

Some of the most important conversations never happen out loud - they're the ones we have with ourselves. 🗣️

This Depression Awareness Month, remember that ignoring what you're feeling doesn't make it disappear. Recognizing when you need support—and giving yourself permission to ask for it—is an act of courage.

The way we show up for ourselves and for others matters. Every kind comment. Every meaningful conversation. Every moment we choose a connection over scrolling can help someone feel seen.

Start the conversation. Make the impact. Learn how you can make a difference 👉 https://ow.ly/g10B50ZSWkt

WakeMed, 1 of Us and community partners recently came together for Breast Health 360: From Prevention to Survivorship, bringing our community together to learn more about breast health and the many ways to take charge of your health.

From prevention and screening to genetics, treatment, reconstruction and survivorship, the day was all about empowering people with information to take charge of their health.

A special thank you to our incredible speakers, community partners and everyone who helped make this event possible. We’re grateful to be part of a community that continues to show up for one another. 💗
