# Early diagnostics centers created all over Poland as a part of the National Early Cancer Diagnostics in Children Program help to detect cancer before it is too late. Another aim of the program is to equip Poland’s most important children oncology clinics with the latest medical devices. Thirdly, the program includes organizing information campaigns about early cancer diagnostics in order to raise awareness among doctors and parents.

 # The Universal Newborn Hearing Screening Program– The program’s goal is to test the hearing of newborns in neonatology wards. The free-of-charge screening helps to diagnose whether the little patients’ hearing is developing on a normal basis or not.

# The Retinopathy of Prematurity Prevention and Treatment Program – diagnosis and treatment of children whose retina has been damaged due to premature birth.

#  The  Non-Invasive Breathing Sustention in Neonates Program - “Infant Flow” – The program’s goal is to lower the number cases in which mechanical ventilation of premature babies and newborns is needed, because mechanical ventilation often leads to severe pulmonary complications. What we offer instead is a modern and non-invasive method, which does not require for the infant to be intubated: the “Infant Flow”.

# The Program for Personal Insulin Pump Treatment of Pregnant Diabetic Women  -The program is aimed at purchasing insulin pumps which give pregnant women the chance for an active and an easier life with diabetes.

#  The All-Polish Program for Personal Insulin Pump Treatment of Diabetic Children - within the scope of this program WOŚP purchases insulin pumps which give children and pregnant women a chance for a simpler and more active life despite diabetes.

# The CPR for Schools Educational Pr ogram – The program is aimed at providing teachers of elementary schools with first aid training, enabling them to pass what they have learned on to their students. We also provide schools with necessary teaching aids such as manikins, textbooks and DVDs.
