How does Medi Teddy help?
Invented by pediatric patient, Ella, Medi Teddy IV Covers are an adorably designed teddy bear that conceals a bag of IV medication, blood product or tube feeding. "Hope" silicone, Medi Teddy IV Covers can be reused over and over for many patients and clean easily with all hospital wipes, cleaners, steam, and heat. Medi Teddy IV Covers help to reduce anxiety and normalize medical care for children.
We receive requests from hospitals, patients, and parents on a daily basis and rely on donations to provide Medi Teddy IV Covers to families and patients at no cost to them. We'd be so grateful for any donation you can make - no amount is too big or too small! Just $5 can cover shipping to a nearby location and $500 can outfit a small hospital unit! We are so grateful!
