Help keep newborn babies safe and healthy, close to home.
The first breath of a newborn infant is music to the ears of every new parent. In the best case scenario, breaths come quickly after birth.
But when a newborn doesn’t have the capacity to breathe, the maternity and respiratory specialists at Langley Memorial Hospital are called to action.
The urgent need
Within seconds after birth, maternity and respiratory caregivers must rely on the technological power of a neonatal ventilator to provide life-giving oxygen.
But with just a single ventilator stationed permanently in the maternity unit, health care staff can’t provide life-giving oxygen to more than one newborn at a time.
We’re partnering with TB Vets to raise funds for a second neonatal ventilator and other urgently needed equipment for LMH’s maternity unit.
Every donation you give is matched, dollar for dollar by TB Vets. Your generosity will make a huge difference in the lives of newborns and families across Langley, who deserve care close to home.
