Another great example of the benefits of pet therapy. Leisure Therapy has helped bring pet therapy into @pahospital via @DeltaSocietyAus Leisure Therapist Kate Martin from Spinal Injury Unit brings her therapy dog Trev into work each week for patient pet therapy sessions – at Brisbane, Queensland
Previous Token of #Kindness recipient, Letecia Wilson, has passed the baton to colleague, Occupational Therapist, Anna O'Gorman. She exemplifies #personcentredcare going above and beyond for both #patients and her team. #Congratulations Anna!
It is such a privilege to do the work I do with these amazing young people... It warms my heart to see the impact is still felt all these years later #ycs #leisuretherapy @pahospital @MetSthHealth – at Brisbane, Queensland
At 22 Jasmine was diagnosed with #bonecancer and whilst going through treatment she needed to decide if she was to freeze her eggs unfertilised with less chance of survival or fertilise her eggs with a donor. Luckily, #YCS was there to help: bit.ly/2FVVcHZ

Let’s reflect on what gives meaning to our lives, and set our priorities on the basis of that. We need to be positive. We weren't born to cause trouble or to do harm to others. For life to be of value, we must develop basic good human qualities—warmth, kindness, compassion.
Such an honour to be awarded the @MetSthHealth Planetree Token of Kindness. It is such a privilege to do what I do @pahospital and work alongside such amazing clinicians #kindness #compassion #aya #planetree – at Brisbane, Queensland
Our Token of #Kindness awardee makes a meaningful difference to young people living with cancer. @lyndalgee tailors #leisuretherapy interventions to the values, beliefs, interests, health/psychosocial situations and lifestyle of every patient #Congrats #personcentredcare #Legend

When you stand beside a patient, it doesn’t matter your job title. You are an equal. You hold their hand. You keep them safe. You do not leave them. You are the face and the hand of hope and healing at that moment. No matter your specialty.

Ben Bravery sharing his experiences a a patient and as a medical student. Challenging the ‘ward round’ - missed opportunities to engage with our patients. Practice with empathy @empathyEd #empathy #compassion #heathcare #TalkIsNotCheap
Formalities kick off @pahospital for #orangethepah #OrangeTheWorld #HearMeToo @MetSthHealth – at Brisbane, Queensland
Proud of @BelindaMatigia1 & the way she presented the work we do around memory making with AYAs today at #AYACancerCongress.
A challenging topic to research but would love to obtain some data (any researchers keen to collaborate?!) and teach others what we do @AYAGlobalCancer
