Cairns Base Hospital Pioneers Inclusive Patient Care with Multi-Sensory Experience
02 Sep 2023
Cairns is taking a bold step towards inclusive and holistic patient care.
As part of a comprehensive $70 million redevelopment project, an innovative sensory modulation room is being introduced to enhance the well-being of mental health patients.
This visionary digital solution, developed collaboratively with clinicians and project experts, offers patients an immersive journey through interactive visual and soundscapes tailored to individual needs.
Multi-sensory features designed to soothe, engage, and distract, the room also incorporates soothing lights and gentle scents.
The new Mental Health Unit is slated to open in mid-2024, reflecting Cairns' commitment to creating an inclusive and supportive healthcare environment.
