Welcome bark Sir Ralphalot! 🐶 We've got a special #ShoutoutSaturday for you today. This week TPCH's Children's Emergency Department welcomed the return of therapy dog Ralph after his break from the office during COVID-19.
Paw-fessionals like Ralph are brought in to help moderate anxiety among children when they arrive at hospital. For many kids, it might be the first time they're experiencing medical care in this way, so therapy dogs like Ralph are there to help relieve stress and provide emotional support.
Little Addison loved playing with Ralph while she was having her broken arm treated!
Thank you, Ralph and the team at Delta Therapy Dogs for visiting! 😍😍

This #ShoutoutSaturday we're celebrating #TPCH Prof John Fraser who is working with some of the best and brightest clinicians, scientists, educators and policy makers across the state to work towards new research to benefit the wider community. ❤️

John is the man!
