Royal Columbian Hospital’s smallest patients benefit from RBC donation
A $20,000 donation to Royal Columbian Hospital Foundation will help provide the right environment for premature babies to get stronger and healthier.
The gift from RBC Foundation will go towards the purchase of a Giraffe Omnibed incubator. This high-tech incubator provides an ideal, stable microenvironment to promote healthy growth in these vulnerable patients.
Paving the way for healthy babies
A road building contractor with a history of supporting Royal Columbian Hospital will help monitor, diagnose and treat newborns with its latest donation.
Winvan Paving has made a $15,000 contribution towards an ultrasound machine for the neonatal intensive care unit.
