Teddy Bear Hospital, University of Limerick

Medical School students at the University of Limerick hosted the University's annual Teddy Bear Hospital with over 400 Limerick's primary school children and their teddy bears.
The aim of the event, which has been organised by five current Graduate Entry Medical School (GEMS) students with a particular interest in childhood medicine, is to alleviate childhood anxiety about the medical environment, its procedures and the professionals that work within it.
