Hospitals and Healthcare
There are many challenges facing hospitals and healthcare in the modern world we are living in. I've created this curation collection to save articles that help me understand what modern health in society is.  The articles here are general in nature and placed here to promote discussion. We advise that you talk with your health professional before changing any of your medication or treatment options.  Any of the online courses listed here may (or may not) be open for access or enrolment. Most are free to browse, some may charge a small fee if you wish to receive a certificate or record of learning.   Every effort is made to ensure that these links are up to date and be aware that some of these articles may be behind a 'paywall'. If you can’t get into an article, email me and I may be able to assist.  Views are my own.

The number of children being sedated for an MRI could be reduced thanks to a pair of glasses donated to Taranaki Base Hospital.

The mirrored glasses, along with a toy car, a toy tunnel and stethoscopes, were donated to the children's ward after Staples Rodway held a business breakfast and raised $1100 for Starlit Hope, an organisation started by Gabby Devine who died of cancer in 2015 aged 13.
