Nurses Choice Recalls Holiday Keepsake Newborn Mittens

Nurses Choice is recalling about 4,700 Newborn Keepsake Mittens because decorations on the mittens can be pulled off, posing a choking hazard.

The company has received one report of a decoration falling off a mitten. No injuries have been reported.

The infant mittens are made of white cotton. They have candy cane, teddy bear and "2011" decorations glued on one side. They were distributed by hospitals nationwide for free to newborns from October 2010 to January 2011.

Consumers should immediately stop using the mittens and contact Nurses Choice for a free replacement. For more information, contact Nurses Choice at (800) 747-7076 from Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET, by e-mail to info@nurses-choice.com or visit the company’s website at www.nurses-choice.com.
