UTICA, N.Y. — The Mohawk Valley Health System (MVHS) says it will name the maternal child-services floor at the upcoming Wynn Hospital the Sammon Family Birthing Center.
The decision follows a $1.5 million donation to the MVHS Foundation’s This is for You Campaign by John and Deanna Sammon and their daughter and son-in-law Karen Sammon and Will Cardamone, MVHS said.
“The Birthing Center is a priority for my family,” John Sammon, chair emeritus and founder of PAR Technology Corporation in New Hartford, said in an MVHS news release. “It will offer our community a range of services and support for expectant mothers including prenatal care, childbirth education and lactation support — all of which promote healthy pregnancies, successful childbirth experiences and positive outcomes for both the mother and baby. We are honored that the floor will carry our family’s name as it provides care to future generations, and we are so grateful to be able to give back to the place we call home.”
