In the last year, over 7,250 babies and children attended the Assessment Unit and Inpatient Ward of the Starlight Unit at Wythenshawe Hospital. This number has been increasing year on year. On admission, and throughout their stay, these patients will have their vital signs measured to assess and monitor their health. Readings of blood pressure, temperature, heart rate and blood oxygen gives clinicians essential information.

Due to high demand and frequent use, the Starlight Unit needs extra and replacement monitoring equipment. We have recently provided one Spot monitor with funds from our Manchester Appeal. This new model is able to wirelessly transfer the readings to a digital record which ensures accuracy and time efficiency.

“The switch adapted toys have been a wonderful addition to our school. Both staff and children were thrilled to have some new exciting resources. The children love the lights and movement many of these switch toys have and are highly motivated to explore and investigate how to make them work. They have been great for pupils to develop their understanding of cause and effect and we have also noticed improved concentration and engagement when using them. Often it can be difficult to find toys that are robust enough to withstand lots of heavy use AND be interesting and fun. These new resources tick all those boxes. They have made a noticeable impact on the children’s development in this area.”
