If parents have a new baby in hospital, it’s often not possible for them to be with them 24 hours a day. But this means that they could miss important first steps such as the removal of feeding tubes, their first stoma bag change or even their first smile.

However, vCreate, a secure video messaging service, can help minimise this separation anxiety for parents by enabling staff to securely share messages, photos, and videos with parents of all the moments they miss,

And, once the baby is discharged, parents can download all the messages, videos and photos which they can then keep and share with their family and friends.

Anything you can donate to help fund this messaging service at the Worthing SCBU would be massively appreciated.

Thank you for your support.
