TEDDY BEAR HOSPITAL
Is your child’s Teddy in need of their regular check-up?
On Saturday the 4th of April 3rd Year medical students in conjunction with John Hunter Children’s Hospital will be operating a hospital for Teddy Bears.
Between 10am and 3pm children are encouraged to bring their favourite soft toy along to Civic Park Newcastle to be checked by the Teddy Doctors, receive any necessary medical treatment (tickles, cuddles, bandages, stitches) and receive their very own medical record.
This FREE event promises great entertainment for families with a fully functional tent hospital, live teddy bear characters, face-painting and plenty of games for children of all ages. This new community initiative is aimed at improving the interaction between doctors and children.
Students hope to reduce some of the fear experienced by children when visiting the doctor by providing a relaxed, fun and positive medical experience. All teddy bears are welcome- none too big, too playful, too ticklish. For mor info, or have some little ones that may like to attend?…send us an email.
Time: 10:00am-3:00pm
Where: Civic Park Newcastle
Cost: Free
