Part of a $25,000 grant from John’s Island Foundation* helped Treasure Coast Community Health purchase two pediatric immobilizers for x-rays, known as a Pigg-O- StatTM, for evaluation of medical issues.

This all-in-one pediatric immobilizer safely positions infants and children for a clearer x-ray without complications. Less technical difficulties means fewer retakes and less exposure to radiation. The Pigg-O-Stat also relieves x-ray technicians from immobilizing a child themselves. This technology helps fill TCCH’s vision to provide patient centered care in a technologically advanced and compassionate environment.
