Thanks to Hospitality New Zealand, Te Wao Nui Children’s Hospital are bringing sick babies another step closer to home.
Many premature and high-needs pēpē who are ready to leave the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), still require ongoing hospital care.
The new Giraffe™ OmniBed™ Carestation Incubator, made possible by the success of Hospitality New Zealand’s Eat Drink Play Gala Ball, is an important and much needed addition to the children’s hospital.
This advanced equipment provides a controlled, safe micro-environment for vulnerable babies who struggle to maintain their body temperature and need careful monitoring. It also helps in incubator phototherapy treatment to manage jaundice, a common condition that can lead to severe complications like deafness or brain damage if not properly treated.
Our huge thanks to the HospitalityNZ team. Your support helps our Child Health Team provide the best possible care for our hospital’s tiniest patients.
