MEDICO MAYDAY

A LIVING LIBRARIES EXPERIENCE

 

A Pearl Cove Council Initiative

 

 

 

Pearl Cove Council is pleased to announce the commencement of a Living Libraries experience, where, in a ‘meeting of minds’ Pearl cove community members can link in with doctors, nurses, EMS, and other medical professionals, along with survivors of the above listed illnesses and syndromes and others, broadening community knowledge and empathy.

 
With recognition to the many acknowledged fundraising and awareness days in the month of May, Pearl Cove Council has endeavoured to gather together the best minds in the country to serve as Books, available to be "checked out" of the Human Living Library.
Discussions will touch on topics including:

• Women’s Health Week (inclusive of Women’s Check-up Day);
• Emergency Medical Services Week;
• Brain Tumour/Brain Cancer Awareness Month (inclusive of Go Grey Day);
• Red Cross Founder’s Day;
• International Nurses Day;
• Red Nose Day for Sudden Infant Death awareness and research;
• National Infertility Survival Day;
• Cornelia de Lange Syndrome Awareness Day;
• National Melanoma Day;
• National Fibromyalgia Day;
• Necrotizing Fasciitis  Awareness Day;
• Parkinson’s Day;
• Multiple Sclerosis Day;

Come along and speak to Books including Australia's first Indigenous Orthopaedic Surgeon, the NSW Paramedic of the Year, traditional Indigenous healers, Professors of Medicine from leading Universities, and community members living, and thriving, with conditions including Melanoma, Fibromyalgia, Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, and Infertility.
