Meet Kali
Born: 2006
Diagnosis: Extreme premature birth, severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)
Services used: Respiratory, specialized nutrition
CHALLENGE
Born at 24 weeks, Kali’s lungs were failing. Without a double transplant, she would not survive.
Solution
PHS met Kali’s family at the airport on their way home from surgery, providing all the respiratory and nutrition supplies and services she would need.
Results
Kali still receives routine visits from her PHS clinical specialist, but she’s been successfully weaned off the majority of her equipment.
