A Neopuff resuscitation device plays a vital role in helping newborn babies who need support with breathing in their first moments of life.
Used in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), this specialised equipment provides gentle, controlled respiratory support, giving our tiniest patients the best possible start.
Thanks to the generosity of our community, we were able to fund this essential equipment, which continues to make a difference for babies and families at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital.

Celebrating the heart of North Adelaide!
Last year, community artist @louise.flaherty undertook a 6-month artist residency at the North Adelaide Community Centre with the City of Adelaide. Her project, ‘For the Love of North Adelaide’, honoured the suburb’s people, places, natural environment, culture, and history.
Louise led creative workshops with community members to create vibrant hand-drawn postcards reflecting their experiences of the suburb. Composer Belinda Gehlert brought these stories to life through an accompanying audio response.
‘Postcards from North Adelaide’ offers a delightful exploration of familiar images and local sentiments.
This exhibition is currently on display in the Pink Gallery at the WCH, located in the Level 1 corridor between the Telehealth Room and Women’s Outpatients.
