Thanks to local donations, Hywel Dda Health Charities has purchased two televisions for patients in Angharad children’s ward at Bronglais Hospital.
The TVs have replaced faulty ones in the two side rooms on the ward.
Ward Manager Bethan Hughes said: “Having televisions at the bedside is a good distraction for children who are unwell.
“They are an essential part of providing a family-centred experience when patients are in side rooms, helping us to improve the ward environment.”
Pictured with one of the new televisions is Health Care Support Worker Sian Davies.
Nicola Llewelyn, Head of Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, said: “The support of our local communities enables us to provide services over and above what the NHS can provide in the three counties of Hywel Dda and we are extremely grateful for every donation we receive.”
