The Octostop Pediatric Immobilizer has officially arrived at the Taber Health Centre, ushering in a new era of enhanced safety and efficiency for pediatric X-rays. This equipment is designed to securely position children, minimizing their movement during imaging and significantly reducing the need for repeated X-rays.
Previously, taking X-rays of young patients often required additional staff or parents in leaded suits to ensure stability. With the introduction of the Octostop, fewer personnel are necessary, which is particularly beneficial in rural settings where staff may be limited. This advancement translates to quicker, safer, and more effective imaging experiences for our youngest patients.
A special thank you goes to our generous donors whose support made this possible.
