A Few Words About our Founder and CEO.
Passionate, innovative, and skillful: Mary Chiesa has dedicated her life to neonatal safety and patient advocacy. Mary Chiesa worked in Labor and Delivery for over a decade as a First Assist in the Operating Room in California. Mary became privy to all of the changes needed to be made in neonatal and maternal care in order to enhance safety and meet that Standard Level of Care. Mary then became an inventor, founder, and CEO at SAPLACOR in 2017, where she invented the Aegis Neonate Medical Wrap for safe, in-hospital, skin-to-skin bonding in the OR, PACU, postpartum, and NICU. Mary then saw the need for Aegis in the EMS setting for safe and secure neonatal transports. Aegis is now dubbed as, "The Neonatal Trifecta" for its capacity to perform hands-free, skin-to-skin bonding in the hospital, evacuation, and EMS. Mary Chiesa strives to pioneer the way we care for mother-baby dyads with an emphasis on: neonatal hypothermia, skin-to-skin bonding, maternal mortality, and breastfeeding rates.
