We offer our deepest sympathies to you and your family during this difficult time. We recognize that keepsakes are precious to you and your family, and hope that the information below will assist with any questions that you may have regarding these special items.
Pictures that our staff took of your infant as a special keepsake will be saved on a flash-drive for you and provided at the time of discharge. These photos are also stored in a secure file for two years, should you need a replacement. We hope these photos help you to heal and to remember your precious little one.
If you have any questions about these pictures, you can reach out to our team by e-mailing LoveLives@uams.edu.
Mamie’s Poppy Plate is a porcelain keepsake plate customized in the color of your choice, with your baby’s name, birth information, and hand/footprints. This timeless keepsake is provided to you at no charge. Your nurse will help you complete the order while you are in the hospital. The processing may take 8-10 weeks; the finished plate will be mailed directly to the address you provided. If you have questions or concerns regarding this keepsake please visit Mamie’s Poppy Plates or e-mail them at info@mamiespoppyplates.com.
In addition to the items we provided in the hospital, there are other keepsake items available to order or purchase online; a list can be found at the bottom of this page.
