Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page on iDonate.ie

I've chosen to fundraise for BUMBLEance Children's National Ambulance Service . All funds raised here will go directly to this great cause.

The aim of the event is to ease the stress and tension that a child feels when attending a hospital or when seeing a doctor, as well as finding out more about what doctors, nurses and healthcare specialists and professionals do as part of their jobs. RCSI, MTU and Castel Education (Cambridge Education Group – CEG) deliver the International Medical/Pharmacy Commencement Programme (IMCP/IPCP) at the North Campus in Tralee.

Using the cuddly teddy bears, MTU and RCSI medical, healthcare, and science students, and staff will show children what happens in a hospital, who works there and how the 'Teddy Doctor' helps the sick teddy to feel better. They will also explain the whole process of being in a hospital from start to finish using the teddy bears. Children will bring their teddy bears and cuddly toys with them to help ease that process.

The experience will start with students from the International Medical/Pharmacy Commencement Programme (IMCP/IPCP) and BSc in General Nursing admitting the sick teddy to hospital, then explaining stations such as triage, blood analysis, x-ray/MRI, bandaging, and surgery. Students from the BSc in Health, Sport and Exercise Scienceswill advise children and teddy on how to improve their nutrition and explain the benefits of exercise.
