By taking care of our team in a holistic way, we can provide the best care and experiences for the children and families we serve. To mark Healthcare Workforce Wellbeing Day, a midday yoga class was held in our Solarium. An important time for self-care – and one of many health coaching, peer support, volunteering and other wellbeing opportunities offered at Children’s. Every day, we strive to ensure our team members feel cared for and supported at work. #wellbeing #workforcewellbeing #healthcare #peoplefirst

Innovation, collaboration and a commitment to excellence propel Children's Nebraska's clinical experts each day – and for our Gastroenterology and Pediatric Surgery teams, it resulted in a first-at-Children's surgery this past fall. Surgeons Dr. Andrew Huang Pacheco and Dr. Adil Shah teamed up to perform the first peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) procedure, a minimally invasive, scarless intervention that treats a rare swallowing disorder called achalasia by endoscopically operating on the esophagus rather than the typical approach through the abdomen. The duo brainstormed their approach together, practiced using models, attended specialized training and gained certification – all to offer the best care possible. Thanks to their belief in better outcomes and experiences for young patients, Dr. Huang Pacheco, Dr. Shah and their surgical support team have now introduced this innovative treatment option to the region. Children's is one of just four centers nationally to offer the POEM procedure for children.
