Happy Friday! To kick off your weekend, we wanted to share another wonderful piece of feedback we received from the ACT Ambulance Service. Their Patient Transport team does an amazing job in the community and it is wonderful to see GOG Goodies playing a part
“Taking a male dementia patient back to a nursing home, the patient started to become unsettled and frustrated. While observing the patient I slowly placed a fiddle mitt in his hand. The man gently touched it, and the tension disappeared and what was becoming a potentially dangerous situation was defused.
This type of situation has happened several times and is amazing to witness. I think you all knit in a bit of magic and love into these items.
We all have many stories like these. This is just an example of how these items make a big difference, both to our dementia patients and to us, as we feel we have helped our patients have a positive experience while in our care.”
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful feedback
And thank you to all our incredible members, volunteers and supporters, for the magic and love
you help bring to people all across Canberra
