We were happy to provide Grant funding to St. Charles Hospital in Port Jefferson, NY. Our funds will be used to purchase Philips X3 cardiac transport monitors.

As at most hospitals, staff at St. Charles Hospital are physically and emotionally challenged when responding to a very sick patient experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. In these life-or-death moments, the cardiac transport monitor is a critical piece of life-saving equipment. This grant will help them upgrade their fleet of cardiac transport monitors and in turn allow them to treat sudden cardiac arrest in an effective manner and help save lives.
