The Sky Garden

We are Ward 2D and the patients that we care for have primarily suffered hip fractures. Hip fractures are quite common in the older person, but unfortunately can often lead to a significant hospital stay. As the patient's recovery is slower due to limited mobility, it can be challenging for them to leave the ward environment.

To enhance the patient's hospital experience, our team would like to implement a Sky Garden to provide an accessible outdoor area which create a destination for patients to visit, which in turn provides a reason to get out of bed.

Fresh air and sunlight do amazing things for regulating sleep pattern, improving mood and reducing delirium which is a significant issue in our patient cohort. The Sky Garden would also enhance their recovery process.

Please join our staff in donating to this wonderful cause! It is the little things that make a big impact in our patients lives!
