Sunny Hill Health Centre's Visual Impairment and Hearing Loss Teams are marking Deaf-Blind Awareness Month with a creative and impactful initiative. These teams, dedicated to supporting children and teens who are deaf-blind, partially sighted, blind, or have visual impairments, have collaborated with the Canadian Deafblind Association to unveil a unique yarn bombing installation. Central to this installation is a tricycle, symbolizing balance, resilience, movement, change and joy. Theresa Tancock, executive director, Canadian Deafblind Association B.C., explains the inspiration behind the project: “We hope this installation fosters a sense of community around deaf-blindness and lets families know they are not alone. It’s about sparking conversations about the experiences of, and the need for appropriate services for, individuals who are deaf-blind.” Marie Campbell, nurse clinician and lead for the Visual Impairment and Hearing Loss team, played a key role in facilitating this installation. She adds, “I hope this project brings greater awareness to the fascinating world of those who are deaf-blind. It is an honor and a pleasure to continue learning about their unique ways of life.”

When a child and their family/caregiver receive a diagnosis of childhood arthritis, it can be overwhelming and challenging to digest. To best support them, clinicians require the ability to provide quality information about care options in their discussions with families. Dr. Lori Tucker, our head of rheumatology, spoke to Arthritis Society Canada on country-wide efforts to improve shared decision-making for families of children with diagnosed arthritis. Dr. Tucker and others have developed a method to generate a personalized report based on the experiences of hundreds of families to support clinicians in shared discussions with families and to offer the best quality care for each patient. She also worked on establishing a registry to safely house health data on children with arthritis- this can be used for research in expanding treatment options and improving standards of care.
