Honoring Tanner Babies through the First Impressions program

The first tiny footprint recorded after a newborn’s birth is priceless. That’s what makes Tanner’s First Impressions program so special. With a donation of $150, families and friends may commemorate a Tanner baby’s birth with a silver footprint medallion, which is placed in the First Impressions Gallery at the W. Steve Worthy Maternity Center at Tanner Medical Center/Carrollton or the Maternity Center at Tanner Medical Center/Villa Rica. The donor also receives his or her choice of either a silver medallion or glass ornament with the baby’s footprint and birth date imprinted.

From parents to grandparents, aunts, uncles and employers, the First Impressions program has become a popular gift-giving idea to honor Tanner babies. Footprint medallions are mounted on the wall near the nursery viewing area in the maternity centers at TMC/Carrollton and TMC/Villa Rica.

Each year, more than 1500 babies are born at Tanner Medical Centers. These babies represent the future of our families and our community. What a wonderful way to welcome them to the world!
