Lluvia Health Organisation, an NGO focused on child and adolescent health partnered with Cussons Baby and Premier to transform the Children’s emergency center of the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) to a more child-oriented and healing friendly ER using wall murals.
The renovation also included donations of state-of-the-art bedside monitors and bed screens to combat child mortality and ensure that patients’ rights to quality health care, dignity, respect, and privacy are upheld.More beautiful photos below...
The project was based on research which showed that the hospital environment could play a positive role in healing by utilizing the right art, music, lighting, and nature. This “healing environment” was observed to be absent in most hospitals particularly the children department of public hospitals. It was based on this that Lluvia Health Organisation sought child-friendly and health-related brands like Cussons Baby and Premier to partner within bridging the gap.
A consultant pediatrician and the hospital’s Head of Accident and Emergency Department, Dr.Yemi Osinaike said the project was “an amazing dream come true."
