Injury Prevention |
|
The Wyoming Department of Health and the Cheyenne Regional Medical Center Foundation are co-sponsors of a statewide, public/private collaborative entitled Help me grow – Safe Kids, Stephanie Heist, Director. This successful collaborative has a simple, but compelling mission – to reduce the number of preventable illnesses and injuries affecting Wyoming’s children. As the Regional Trauma Center for our community, Cheyenne Regional Medical Center is committed to prevention and education and this collaborative effort supports its mission.
Parents and caregivers in Cheyenne now have a free and convenient way to get their child’s safety seat inspected, thanks to a new public service provided by the Wyoming Help me grow – Safe Kids Campaign and its co-sponsors the Cheyenne Regional Medical Center and the Wyoming Department of Health. In September, 2002, the Campaign celebrated the grand opening of its new child safety seat inspection station located at Cheyenne Regional Medical Center in Cheyenne. Help me grow – Safe Kids is one of 30 SAFE KIDS coalitions across the country to be awarded grants from the National SAFE KIDS Campaign® to establish inspection stations in their local communities as part of the Campaign’s SAFE KIDS BUCKLE UP® child passenger safety program. The inspection station offers parents and caregivers personal instruction from certified technicians on the proper use and installation of child safety seats. The inspection station offers set hours of operation so parents and caregivers can plan their schedules accordingly. This service is good news for local families, in light of a new study that found the majority of parents attending child safety seat checkup events in Wyoming continue to make mistakes when using child restraints. |

A hemodialysis machine and a continuous veno-venus helofiltration unit for use by dialysis patients were purchased for Cheyenne Regional in 1998 from this gift. |
