Something to shout about
Hospital waiting rooms needn't just shout about all the horrible things in life - there's plenty of positives to proclaim
We'll soon have you better!
I shall be working on revised posters for waiting rooms this weekend! It strikes me there are a lot of positive messages to send out instead of the "you're going to die a horrible death" messages currently to be found in a waiting room near you. Here are some thoughts off the top of my head but please post below any suggestions you have:
- The staff here are lovely
- They are going to work hard to get you better
- You live in a lovely part of the world
- The treatment is free! (unlike America)
- You're in safe hands
- You'll soon be out of here!
My thanks to Whitehaven Snappers for coming up with some bright and colourful pictures to illustrate the posters.
