St Josephs Intermediate Paediatric Care has launched its Christmas Wish Campaign for the holiday season, where they call on the public to help make a difference in the lives of chronically ill children, Cape town Etc reports.
For the young patients, the magic of Christmas comes from the life-changing support they receive from the many clinical teams at St Josephs, instead of material gifts.
Individuals supporting St Josephs will help provide comprehensive care to children from vulnerable communities.
Medical treatments include therapeutic sessions and emotional support, which are all provided at no cost to families so that their children will be able to have a healthy childhood. This will ensure the patients a brighter and healthier future.
While many children become discharged from the hospital, many may still require medical attention and intervention to heal and recover.
