Each and Every Day: Simple but Full of Love

Within the mural's composition, a plethora of different scenes showcases symbols such as flowers, butterflies, hearts, and the sun, all celebrating life. On the right side of the mural, the canvas portrays community members engaged in their daily routines. These seemingly ordinary moments reveal the beauty and strength of daily existence. Progressing leftward, the mural transitions into a portrayal of the inner workings of the hospital, including a doctor with an x-ray, a dentist with a child, a pregnant woman, and families. This pays homage to the Bronx and Morrisania's neighborhood, emphasizing the dedication and compassion of the hospital staff in their daily duties and the extraordinary aspects within the routine. The mural also highlights the distinctive roles played by each department within the hospital, while incorporating elements that authentically capture the essence of the Bronx.

The figure of the teddy bear evokes the ideals of a Care Bear, serving as a reminder to hospital staff of the importance of practicing and embodying caring, compassionate values, aligning closely with the ICARE and Communicating Empathy initiatives. Patient Experience Officer Gayle presented the staff with teddy bears as a gesture of championing compassion and nurturing approach in interactions with patients.
