Hopathon to support Kangaroo care in Grampians Health’s Special Care Nursery
Steve Moneghetti visited the Ballarat Base Hospital Special Care Nursery on Friday, 10 November, to support Hop Temple’s Hopathon.
Fundraising allows us to provide innovative equipment and services to enhance patient care and staff wellbeing. Donations to our public health service help us make our community stronger, healthier and a better place for us all to live.
This Christmas, we are asking our community to support our Grampians Health at Home Paediatric Program. It is our newest stream of at-home care, where we look after children with both acute and chronic conditions in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes. We all know that young kids feel safer and happier at home and we want to keep families together.
We all know that there is no place like home.
In our Grampians Health at Home Paediatric Program, we look after kids assessed to be well enough to continue their care in the comfort of their own homes. They are cared for by our specialist paediatric nurses, with access to doctors and medications. They will receive the same level of care as they would receive in the hospital.
Your generous donation will help us to purchase patient monitors, baby scales, feeding kits, thermometers and anaphylaxis and oximetry bags. This will allow us to expand our program and the level of care we can provide.
