That's awesome!! I'm still working on the hospital here, it seems no

one here is accountable for anything. Each person I talk to is

like " well I don't take care of things like that, but here I'll

forward you to this woman, I think she might know! " and then that

woman says the same thing. I'm starting to wonder if the new parent

packages don't just appear out of thin air and no one is actually

responsible for doing it That's awesome though, I'll provide this

info to the hospital here to show them that there are other hospitals

starting to do it now.. and they gotta be like the jones's

Thanks for sharing Christie

Shows that there is hope out there. Hopefully as time passes, and

more awareness of plagio, more hospitals will start this.
