紅鼻子醫生

紅鼻子醫生是全台灣唯一的專業、中立的紅鼻子醫生(Clown Care)組織。

每一個人只要進入醫院,或多或少都帶著不安的心情,對長期到醫院接受看病的孩子來說,面對無止盡的治療,只剩下緊張恐懼的情緒。一次性的熱鬧活動,是無法帶走他們的寂寞和壓力,紅鼻子醫生用每周固定頻率的長期陪伴,用歌聲及笑聲為醫院裡的每一個人加油打氣。

透過有趣的遊戲音樂及表演藝術,幫助醫院裡的孩子打造一個充滿笑聲的想像世界。在這個世界,病痛彷彿不見了,當孩子藉由情感與身體的全神投入,智力與創造力也會因此被激發,並產生信心,勇敢面對各項治療。而這份溫暖的力量不但可以鼓勵孩子,更可以緩解周遭家屬及醫護團隊壓力,讓他們重新充電恢復精神,面對未來的挑戰。

The mission of the Dr.Rednose Association (a professional medical clown organization) is to train professional medical clowns and bring customized impromptu performances to medical and nursing facilities in Taiwan, to accompany patients in need with laughter, and to help them regain confidence in life and self-affirmation. The clowns will also help to relieve the stress of families and medical staff, and help frontline workers through educational and promotional activities, so that more people will pay attention to friendly medical care.
