Donation Helps to Advance Respiratory Care
Around the World
Teleflex Incorporated (NYSE:TFX), a leading global provider of
medical devices for critical care and surgery, has announced that
they have donated $10,000 to the American Respiratory Care
Foundation (ARCF). The donation was the result of a photo challenge
hosted by Teleflex during the 60th International Congress of the
American Association for Respiratory Care (AARC) held in December,
2014. Teleflex donated $10 to the ARCF for every attendee who
participated in the photo booth challenge, up to $10,000 total.
“Teleflex is proud to partner with the Respiratory Therapy
community to raise awareness and funds for the ARCF,” said James
Ferguson, President, Respiratory Division, Teleflex. “This
partnership illustrates our commitment to connecting clinicians and
medical technology in a way that helps to advance patient care
around the world.”
The ARCF is dedicated to promoting respiratory health through
the support of research, education, and patient-focused
philanthropic activities in respiratory care. The ARCF seeks to
ensure a better, healthier future for all by promoting prevention,
quality treatment and management of respiratory diseases. These
funds will be donated on behalf of the ARCF to the International
Council for Respiratory Care (ICRC) to deliver a six-day
comprehensive Respiratory Care course intended for implementation
outside of the United States, to enhance the care of respiratory
patients around the world. The course will be offered under the
auspices of the ICRC and the AARC.
“Governors representing 26 countries to the ICRC unanimously
recognize the leadership role of Teleflex in its generous support
of the long sought after goal of producing a high quality, global
respiratory care training course," stated Jerome Sullivan,
President, ICRC.
Teleflex is a corporate partner of the AARC and, through its
Arrow®, LMA®, Hudson RCI® and Rusch® Brands, has a strong history
of delivering purpose driven innovation to improve the health and
quality of people’s lives.
