Royal North Shore Hospital
The Tiny Star Beads program is offered to babies admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Royal North Shore Hospital. We welcome all babies in the NICU to our program, regardless of their diagnosis.
The Tiny Little Star Beads will be distributed during weekly catch-ups in Low Dependency with the designated nursing staff or NUM1’s.
During a long hospital stay, babies can go through many different medical procedures, some of which may be painful, and at times this can be upsetting for them and for their parents too. Babies are wonderfully resilient, and often their courage and strength are awe inspiring though dealing with these procedures is never easy for them or their families. The beads when strung together, will help to tell the story of each baby’s personal medical journey.
The string of beads will become a very special memento for the babies and their families, and a symbol of pride and courage for all of the challenges that they overcame
