A new podcast created by four young people from the Chronic Illness Peer Support (ChIPS) program at Sydney Children’s Hospitals Network (SCHN), Chronic Conundrums hopes to lend a helping hand in navigating the challenges that come with chronic illness and disability diagnoses for young people.
During Occupational Therapy Week, our hospitals are celebrating the vital role therapists play in supporting children like Jackson. Patients are set to benefit from new multi-purpose therapy spaces being introduced as part of the redevelopment project.
There are millions of carers across Australia, each with unique circumstances and stories of their own. Tammy, Patrick, Teresa and Harry are among these people, all helping to care for a child with complex needs.
Announcement of the finalists of the annual Photo Finish photography award. The competition attracts staff, patients and families from across the Sydney Children's Hospitals Network.
