University medical center opens its Safe Haven Baby Box, 5th in Lubbock. Lubbock Avalanche-Journal On Monday, UMC Health System, in partnership with Safe Haven Baby Boxes and community organizations, dedicated and blessed a Safe Haven Baby Box on its main campus. "Ultimately, the Baby Box provides a safe alternative," said Jill Shanklin, vice president of Nursing Excellence & Maternal-Child Services at UMC Health System. "It demonstrates our commitment to infant health and our support of state Safe Haven (Baby Moses) laws." The fully secured, climate-controlled, and monitored device is located at the east-side entrance of Medical Office Plaza II on UMC Health System's Main Campus - located at 808 Joliet Ave. According to UMC, when an infant is placed inside the Baby Box, the exterior door automatically locks and an alarm immediately notifies on-site Urgent Care personnel with the system, ensuring immediate response, medical evaluation, and compassionate care. After being medically checked, the infant is then placed into protective custody, where arrangements are made for ongoing care or adoption. In addition to the physical safety provided by the baby box, parents have access to a 24-hour crisis hotline, as well as education and support resources. Where are the Safe Haven Baby Boxes located around Lubbock? There are five boxes located around Lubbock. They are: * Lubbock Fire Rescue Station No. 9 - 4814 50th St. * Wolfforth Fire & EMS Station - 305 Cedar Ave. * Covenant Children's Hospital - 4002 24th St. * Covenant Health Levelland - 1900 College Ave., Levelland. * UMC Health System's Main Campus - located at 808 Joliet Ave. Individuals can also call the Safe Haven Crisis Line at 1-866-99BABY1.
