Ft. Lauderdale, FL- June 21, 2018 — As part of their 15-year anniversary, IDS AbbaDox, an innovative cloud technology company specializing in health information management services, is proud to team up with NFL’s Pierre Garçon, wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers, to deliver a fleet of Power Ride On LaFerraris to the children of Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. Carefully guided by hospital staff and parents, Joe DiMaggio’s kids will be able to ride in style while easing anxiety during their stay. As part of the event, Garçon will be on hand to meet and greet with the kids.
“As a family who has experienced firsthand what it feels like to raise a child who was under specialized care, we understand how families in these situations feel the stress and anxiety of their child,” said Yaniv Dagan CEO and Founder of IDS. “Little things like a ride in an exotic car can make the hospital stay more joyful.”
“Growing up here in South Florida and benefiting from programs that helped nurture kids’ dreams and development, I enjoy being a part of programs that I really believe in,” said Pierre Garçon. “IDS and Joe DiMaggio did something wonderful for these kids today and I am proud to share the experience.”
Known for its dedication to patient- and family-centered care, the hospital showcases an overall “Power of Play” philosophy with each floor displaying themes of Sports, Arts, Games and Dreams. Patients, families and visitors experience a whimsical world in which treatment and healing intertwine with medical expertise and family-centered care to provide an experience like no other in the Florida healthcare landscape.
In 1992, Joe DiMaggio himself helped Memorial Healthcare System celebrate the opening of the first Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital. The free-standing four-floor building in the heart of Hollywood, FL, combines advanced technology and the expertise of the largest, most diverse group of board-certified pediatric specialists in the region. With its summer 2011 expansion, Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital now has 226 beds and is South Florida’s newest freestanding children’s hospital. Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital is part of Memorial Healthcare System, one of the largest public healthcare systems in the country.
