Little steps can make a big impact
Each year, approximately 60,000 babies and young patients under the age of 18 receive care at Gold Coast University Hospital and Robina Hospital. For many of these children, hospital stays can be long, challenging, and overwhelming.
The Gold Coast Hospital Foundation (GCHF) is striving to create a dedicated wellbeing hub within the Youth Oncology Unit, a space designed to be welcoming, comforting, and interactive. According to GCHF, this hub will offer children a place to relax, recharge, and momentarily take their minds off treatment, helping to ease anxiety and support emotional wellbeing during an incredibly difficult time.
By investing in a more child-friendly and engaging hospital environment, the GCHF aims to improve the experience of the many children who spend extended periods in hospital each year, as well as the thousands of children who visit loved ones across the hospital.
