The 2023 McDonald’s McHappy Day campaign raised $4,000 for the KBRH Health Foundation’s Tier 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Project.

This donation will purchase medical equipment to support premature babies receiving care at KBRH.

About the KBRH NICU

Tier 3 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) on the fourth floor of KBRH means babies born preterm, with a low birth weight or with a health condition that requires intensive care, can stay close to home instead of being flown out of town to a larger centre for specialized care.

This great step forward in advanced neonatal care at KBRH began in September 2022, when the regional hospital was approved for Tier 3 nursery status.

The NICU will house three nursery beds with 24/7 nursing care.
