ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. Children staying at UNM Children’s Hospital had a Christmas to remember Friday.
Since Santa Claus wasn’t able to show up to the hospital in person this year because of COVID restrictions, he opened up a toy shop for kids and their families instead. Children were able to pick out presents for free. So having something like this where we can make the day special as special as we can with the restrictions we have. Our hospital looks very different than it has in years past and this also brings a ton of joy to our staff,” said Maribeth Thorton, associate chief nursing officer at UNM Children’s Hospital.
