Join Us in Supporting #ChildrensHospitalsWeek

To celebrate the amazing things being done at Hurley Children’s Hospital, we’re inviting you to join us March 5-11 in celebrating #ChildrensHospitalsWeek.

Great events like the Hurley Benefit Ball and contests like Vote For Miracles are helping with the upgrades to the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit, which will benefit the most critically ill young patients of Hurley Medical Center and Hurley Children’s Hospital.

     Hurley’s PICU serves patients from newborn to 20 years old. Donations are helping to convert the PICU rooms into single-patient rooms, allowing for all 14 beds to be used, regardless of isolation, age or gender.

Here are four ways you can get involved to help support #ChildrensHospitalsWeek:

     1. Wear a Band-Aid. Show your support for Hurley Children’s Hospital by wearing a Band-Aid of your choice, taking a photo, and sharing it with the #ChildrensHospitalsWeek hashtag.

     2. Tune in to CMN Hospitals’ Facebook Live-athon at 7:30 p.m. EST on Wednesday, March 7. This two-hour live fundraiser, broadcast from Walt Disney World, will feature inspiring pediatric patients from the U.S. and Canada and entertainment from celebrity guests.
