Visit the 2021 Red Deer Hospital Lottery grand prize dream home built by Sorento Custom Homes
From The Red Deer Health Foundation
Located at 101 Larratt Close, Red Deer. Health and safety measures will be in place to protect our guests and volunteers.
DREAM HOME NOW OPEN!
Tour the home Saturdays and Sundays from 1pm to 5pm.
2021 Red Deer Hospital Lottery proceeds will be used to support the purchase of electronic fetal monitors and other medical equipment for the Red Deer Hospital Centre and other healthcare centres in Central Alberta.
Fetal heart rates are monitored during pregnancy, labour, and birth to assess the baby’s wellbeing. Currently in our hospital, fetal heart rate tracings are captured through bedside monitors that print paper records and can only be viewed while at the machine.
The ability to quickly review, assess, and interpret records is important. New electronic fetal monitors have a number of features not available with the current, paper-based systems:
- preset alarms that alert care teams to potential issues
- electronic access to view information from multiple locations
- support integration of all information to track, analyze, and act upon, thereby increasing safety and quality of care
- a reduced risk of user error through the elimination of the paper-based system
Each year there are over 2,700 births at RDRHC alone, and electronic fetal monitoring is performed multiple times during pregnancy.
Red Deer Hospital Lottery’s contribution to the purchase of new monitors will ensure additional peace of mind to labouring mothers.
