HEARTS in CRAFTS

creativity | connection | community

Building diverse foundations of care.

One creative adventure at a time



Dr Nemat Alsaba, Dr Rhea Liang, Dr Shahina Braganza & Jen Lean RN are building a collaborative community of creation & care among health care providers by launching HEARTS IN CRAFTS.

What’s it all about?

HEARTS IN CRAFTS was born out of a collective love of providing patient centred care, cultivating diverse and ​vibrant community, and creating innovate ways to put out hearts into crafts.


The vision is to have the ‘helper humans” come together to share resources, share experiences, and share ​space, sip on tea…all while we create tools to support some of our most vulnerable members among us.


OUR PROJECT: Create IV cannula sleeves for our older patients with dementia presenting to ED.


We invite you to gather with us!


WHEN: Last Tuesday of the Month (unless otherwise communicated)

WHERE: Bond University Clinical research and Education Centre (BUCERC) Level 1, H Building, Robina Hospital

WHO: Anyone who cares about other humans.

Ideas

Ideas are the spark of fire that warms us all.


Please share all your ideas when you gather with us. It takes a group of people a lot less time to do a thing, than one person alone.


We love ideas and we love sharing them!
