Congrats to our Birth Center nurse, Sarah Celeste! Going Beyond the Expected for her patients and coworkers with a heart of gold ❤️

Sarah Celeste, Registered Nurse in the Birth Center, was recently recognized for Going Beyond the Expected. She was nominated by Megan Haas and Jess Ritchart.

Megan and Jess wrote - “Sarah had plans in the afternoon of her scheduled weekend shift, so she had Jess coming in to cover the second half of her shift. Around the time Jess was coming in, we began getting busy on the unit, ultimately leading to a need for extra help. Since Jess was just coming in we had three RN's on the unit, which was perfect timing as we had a patient in need of a resuscitation just as Jess was arriving (along with 3 outpatients coming too). Without hesitation Sarah remained on the unit, not only through the resuscitation, but until all of our patients were settled and taken care of. She completely missed her events that she had planned appropriately to be able to attend. Her sacrifice and dedication to her patients and coworkers is a true testimony of what an incredible blessing Sarah is to our facility and department. Thank you for staying to help, I am so sorry you were not able to attend your family functions. I do not know what we would have done without you, we appreciate you so much.”

Thank you for all you do, Sarah!

🚨 New moms, this is important. 🚨

Did you know that pregnancy-related complications can happen after you leave the hospital?

That’s why AWHONN created the Post-Birth Warning Signs Bracelet — a simple, powerful reminder that could help save lives. ❤️

RAMC Birth Center encourages postpartum moms to wear the Post-Birth Alert Bracelet to help ensure EMS, ED, and primary care teams know that you recently gave birth—so critical decisions happen faster. This helps recognize urgent symptoms like:
🔴 Heavy bleeding
🔴 Severe headache
🔴 Chest pain or trouble breathing
🔴 Swelling, redness, or pain in legs
🔴 Feeling like something just isn’t right

If you experience any of these, call your healthcare provider, call 911, or go to the ER immediately. Trust your instincts.

Every mom deserves to feel safe, supported, and informed after birth.

Let’s spread awareness and protect moms. 💕
Share this with a new or expecting mom today.

Reedsburg Area Medical Center Birth Center was thrilled to received another donation of books from the Reedsburg Education Association (REA). REA has been providing our Birth Center newborns with books for more than 25 years.

RAMC and REA encourage parents to read to their newborn as soon as they go home from the hospital.

Thank you to REA for your continued support and investment in a lifetime of learning!

Growing up with a sibling often means sharing life’s biggest moments. For brothers Dalton and Luke Rathman, that now includes welcoming their baby boys just days apart at the RAMC Birth Center.

Dalton and Regalle Rathman welcomed their second child, Bodhi Dean Rathman, on March 7 at 2:14 p.m. Reflecting on their experience, Regalle shared, “After delivering at another hospital, I must say RAMC is top notch. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.” Big sister Kendall was thrilled to meet her new baby brother and just as excited to welcome a new cousin.

Just a few days later, on March 11 at 5:27 a.m., Luke and Mariah Rathman welcomed their first child, Isaac Timothy Rathman. Mariah shared, “All the providers and nurses were very helpful and informative, which was especially appreciated as first time parents.”

Congratulations to the Rathman family. What a special joy to welcome two baby boys into your family just days apart. 💙
