Studies have shown that human touch has a powerful impact on newborns growth and development. This is especially true for babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and why Susan Cacciavillano, SBN, and Stefanie Steinberger, DPT, worked to bring the “Cuddler” program, consisting of 34 volunteers that are specially trained to hold, rock and soothe prematurely born infants, to Chester County Hospital. Cacciavillano and Steinberger were recently acknowledged in Main Line Today as “Health Care Heroes” for their efforts along with Marie Robinson, president of Chester County Hospital Women’s Auxiliary who, with the Auxilians, raised funds to renovate and open the Moore Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Chester County Hospital.
