Hawaiki Cable Donates Lifesaving Incubators to Pacific
Auckland, New Zealand - August 31, 2016 - Hawaiki Submarine Cable LP, the New Zealand owner and developer of Hawaiki submarine cable system, has through the generosity of Malcolm Dick, donated fifty low cost state of the art Medicine Mondiale Lifepod Incubators for distribution in the Pacific Islands, with the first Incubators scheduled for delivery to Fiji and the Cook Islands in April 2017.
The highly reliable Mondiale Lifepod Incubators have been specially designed to operate in the challenging developing world environment and while costing a fraction of conventional neonatal incubators come packed with an array of high tech features including data loggers, noise cancelling technology and on board weighing scales.
“The partnership with Hawaiki is part of our long term strategy to improve access to e medicine in the Pacific Region, said Medicine Mondiale CEO and Founder Sir Ray Avery and the Hawaiki Cable will enable us to download real time operational data from our infant incubators and remotely monitor and analyse infants biometric data which will significantly improve neonatal health outcomes across the Pacific.”
Hawaiki Cable Chair and founding Investor Sir Eion Edgar said “Sir Ray and I share a common belief that telemedicine applications are the key driver for improving the quality and accessibility to quality healthcare not only throughout the remote Pacific Islands but across Australasia. The Hawaiki Cable provides the connectivity and data speed required to build the telemedicine health services of the future.”
