Enid Probst and her assistant, Celeen
Robertson. The mosaic was designed to
uplift the spirits of the patients, families
and staff of the Family Birth Center. It
is like stepping into a flower garden full
of life and transformation—a beautiful
place because of its vibrant diversity of
life forms and colors. The whole garden
lifts up its voice to sing with the nightin-
gale, which is warbling its melody of joy.
The details of the mosaic are concen-
trated on its lower third. That is inten-
tional, considering the many children
that pass through the hallway. Take a
minute to identify the flowers and search
for the bees, ladybugs, frog, rabbit, but-
terflies and other creatures featured!
The overall color scheme is light,
balanced by cheerful accents of orchid,
fresh green, rouge, sky blue and aqua.
The Jackson Hospital Foundation and
Total Image by Capitol Filmworks hosted
a River Region photography contest to
provide unique nature imagery for the
Family Birth Center that shows new life.
“The first impression for visitors is
that they have arrived at a special place,”
says Janet McQueen, Vice President of
Marketing and Development.
Colorful images display selected
works by local amateur photographers,
Jackson Hospital employees and photog-
raphy students at Booker T. Washington
Magnet High School. The collection
is presented free-floating on specially
coated aluminum plates that take on a
magical luminescence with an almost
three-dimensional effect.
Right at home
Rooms have a family zone with comfort-
able sleeping and seating accommoda-
tions. Safety is a priority. We use quality
materials and design details to prevent
infection.
“Welcoming a new baby is such an
exciting time for families, and we want
our Family Birth Center to reflect the
joy that comes with new life,” McQueen
says. “These renovations give our new
moms spacious labor and delivery rooms
doubling as recovery suites, while giv-
ing our physicians new state-of-the-art
equipment they need to make Jackson
Hospital a premier location for labor and
delivery in the River Region.”
