What is CAN GIVE DAY?

CAN GIVE DAY is one big day to change lives on Friday, 13 October 2023!

CAN GIVE DAY is a chance for Canberra Health Services teams to come together and enjoy some quality time celebrating with each other. Meanwhile, the Canberra community comes together to support healthcare services in a way that makes such a huge difference to our patients. 

It's a fundraiser to support your work and the exceptional patient care you provide to people in our community. 

Funds raised go to support research, therapeutic programs, transformations of away-from-bed areas, and the purchase of specialty medical equipment, which enhances the patient experience throughout the year.

CHS TEAMS LEADERBOARD

"Nursing staff were supportive of my child having blood taken. Our nurse was gentle and assisted with removing his Elma dressing. We were able to use the Smiley Scope during his venepuncture, which significantly improved how he coped. Normally, blood tests are very distressing to him. The smiley scope VR set allowed him to be distracted and not see the needle. He was calm throughout. The nurses were gentle and quick and praised him for how he went. This experience has significantly reduced his anxiety around tests and the hospital. Thank you for being so caring."
