Using light instead of a needle, BiliChek allows you to test bilirubin levels without needing a blood sample. Only the replaceable plastic tip touches the baby's head, reducing the risk of infection and waiting for blood chemistry results.

Rocky Start Foundation does
critically important - and wonderfully rewarding - work helping our
community's smallest and most helpless citizens - the critically ill babies born
each year in and around Southern California; babies born too soon, too
small or too sick.
Funds raised through Rocky Start directly benefit the
growing needs of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), and include
the purchase of critical neonatal equipment, funding research and training
of the pediatric physicians and nurses who play such a vital role in the
lives of these tiny babies. Since 2002, Rocky Start has donated
more than $600,000 to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at UCI Medical
Center. But much work remains to be done if we are to continue, to achieve
our important mission.
"We’re dedicated to ensuring that other families
receive the same premier treatment and care that we experienced during a very
traumatic time, while our son was in the care of the wonderful physicians and
nurses at the NICU at University Children’s Hospital. That is what this
foundation is all about." Barbara Moore,
Co-Founder
With ever-improving health care and technology,
more -and smaller- babies are being helped each year. But the
cost of that care and equipment is extremely expensive. The goal of the
Rocky Start Foundation is to raise $1 million to purchase all of the
equipment that is on the NICU Wish List.
Your contribution will help to
ensure that future generations of premature infants have access to leading-edge
care, providing them with the best chance to keep up the good fight - and
survive!
Please join the Rocky Start Foundation effort, where your
support directly benefits the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Thank you in
advance for your generosity in helping us to exceed their dreams -and-
for choosing to make these tiny lives a priority.
Please contact us if you have any questions or require additional
information: Barbara or Roscoe Moore, Founders (send email)
