New look coming to Infor
An Infor update scheduled to go live Sept. 19 will give the platform a new look. All current functionality will remain, while several features, including the “Home,” “My Profile” and “View Compensation” links, will move from the top of the screen to a new navigation menu on the left side of the screen. A 10-minute training module designed to help staff navigate the new look is now available in the Infor learning management system. All Yale New Haven Health staff are encouraged to enroll by visiting SoHo 4.0 Upgrade Training on the intranet (in network only).

New Haven WIC Program recognized
The New Haven WIC (Women, Infants and Children) Program, including the two Yale New Haven Hospital offices, has earned a 2021 Gold WIC Breastfeeding Award of Excellence from the USDA Food and Nutrition Service’s Northeast Regional office. The award is given annually to local WIC agencies to recognize exemplary breastfeeding education and support activities. YNHH efforts include a WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counseling Program. For the past 45 years, YNHH’s WIC Program has helped Connecticut women who meet eligibility guidelines provide themselves and their children with nutrient-rich foods and nutrition counseling. YNHH’s WIC offices are at the Saint Raphael Campus, 1401 Chapel St., and at 150 Sargent Drive.
