Pediatricians have recommended the vitamin K shot at birth for decades to provide babies with the defense needed to prevent vitamin K deficiency bleeding (VKDB).

Newborns need vitamin K at birth because they aren’t born with enough of the vitamin and they receive very little from their mother during pregnancy. Unlike many other nutrients, it doesn’t cross the placenta easily, and their intestines don’t yet have enough bacteria to produce it on their own. Pediatricians can answer any questions parents have on the vitamin K shot.

Interesting Fact for the day: Where’s the hole?! 🕳️

The question often gets asked about Jackson Hole, "Where's the hole?" Well, the hole is the whole valley, all 60 miles of it.

There’s the town of Jackson and then there’s the Hole, or the valley where Jackson is located. Our area is called Jackson Hole and Jackson is the largest community in the valley.

The Hole has a great many places and features, which we’ll be sharing with you over time.

Outside of Jackson itself, do you have a favorite spot in our valley?
