ISH-Cardiopulmonary Department Receives Donation For Car Seat Monitors

The Cardiopulmonary Department at Iowa Specialty Hospital recently received a donation from the Iowa Specialty Hospital Foundation – Clarion toward the purchase of two infant car seat monitors. 

The Masimo SET Infant Car Seat Monitors allow ISH Respiratory Therapists the ability to monitor newborn babies to assure that they can safely travel in car seats, which is very important as some of the babies being monitored are premature or have low birth weights.

“The peace of mind that this allows us, as well as the parents, is immeasurable,” says Lisa Keul, ISH Cardiopulmonary Department Leader. “As our facility continues to deliver more and more babies each year, the need for this service will continue to grow. We are so very grateful for the kindness and generosity of our Foundation to allow us to offer such a wonderful and much needed service to our families. We thank all of you, from the bottoms of our hearts, for your amazing gift.”

The mission of Iowa Specialty Hospital Foundation – Clarion is to raise funds and awareness for projects and services that maintain and improve quality patient care at Iowa Specialty Hospitals & Clinics and its affiliates. Foundation donors are friends of Iowa Specialty Hospital – Clarion who support a wide range of healthcare services, equipment, scholarships, and programs through thoughtful charitable gifts. Iowa Specialty Hospital Foundation – Clarion's giving priorities are aligned with the future goals of Iowa Specialty Hospital, ensuring that the funding donated to Iowa Specialty Hospital Foundation – Clarion is used to support critical medical services, maintain a continued supply of outstanding healthcare professionals, and to have the best diagnostic tools available.
