Kortni and Kolbi’s family from Central Butte, SK., knows firsthand the importance of having Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital (JPCH) nearby. The family has already visited Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital 22 times this year to receive care for two of their five children.
Seven-year-old Kortni has Rasmussen’s encephalitis, causing severe seizures that led to multiple brain surgeries. She now receives ongoing treatment at JPCH and remains seizure-free post-surgery.
Twelve-year-old Kolbi has supraventricular tachycardia, a heart condition that caused her heart rate to spike dangerously high. After years of treatment at JPCH, she recently had heart surgery and hopes her next visit will be her last.
The family also experienced the heartbreak of a stillbirth. These experiences have given the family great appreciation for the specialized pediatric and maternal care at JPCH, allowing them to stay in Saskatchewan for the vital care they require.
Choose from six meaningful gifts that will leave a lasting impact for moms-to-be, children and families in hospital.
Give Where Needed Most
Put your gift to the best use possible by supporting the most critical equipment and programming needs Saskatchewan’s children, moms-to-be and families require. Make your gift monthly for an even greater impact and receive a cumulative tax receipt issued annually.
Empower Indigenous Maternal Care
Guided by the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, this vital work offers First Nations, Métis and Inuit women the support of an Indigenous Birth Support Worker. This person helps to advocate and assist maternal patients through pregnancy, labour and delivery to postpartum stages. Your gift provides expectant mothers with essential culturally appropriate supplies, including moss bags and belly button pouches.
Enhance Resources for Better Pediatric Care
Virtual Pediatric System (VPS) is an online tool that helps deliver top-quality care to critically ill children in Saskatchewan’s only Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). It allows hospitals to share and compare data with others across North America, giving doctors and nurses key insights to improve treatments and ensure safe, effective care. Your donation provides access to this vital information, helping health care teams offer the best possible care to children and their families.
Ensure Every Child Can Communicate and Connect
Every child deserves a voice. This equipment will empower children who face challenges with spoken or written language by supporting or replacing their ability to communicate. Nurturing communication skills can lead to increased literacy, independence, confidence, and social engagement. Your gift ensures access to these tools so children with disabilities that inhibit their ability to communicate can fully participate in their environment.
Help a Child Celebrate Every Moment
Bring joy to a child who is hospitalized during special occasions such as birthdays or holidays. Your contribution will help celebrate these occasions and recognize medical milestones, procedures and tests with a selection of great gifts from the Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital gift shop – Sprout Gift Co.
Assist Families Through Their Health Care Journey
Supporting the Conexus Credit Union Family Amenities Fund allows families with limited financial resources the ability to apply for and receive assistance. Your donation helps to relieve the day-to-day and unexpected costs of having a child stay at Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital, such as travel, parking, meal vouchers, and grocery needs. Assisting with financial barriers allows families to focus their energy on their health care journey, and keep families close when they need it most.
