Lumbar punctures are used most often to diagnose meningitis but are also utilized for other medical purposes. Sparrow Caregivers held fundraising drives to raise their share of the money.

 

Sparrow Health System Residents this afternoon (Thursday July 25th) demonstrated how the mannequin will be used, along with a check presentation from MDRT. Please check out the slide show of some scenes from Sparrow of the event.
