About this listen
In this episode of The Kind Side, host Frances sits down with Anna, a dedicated cleaner working in the children's ward of a large hospital. Transitioning from 15 years in retail to hospital cleaning, Anna shares how her new role brings her joy and fulfillment, making her feel valued and appreciated. She talks about her daily routine, the heartwarming interactions with children, families, and staff, and the significance of being part of the healthcare team.
Anna also discusses the meaningful "1000 Hearts" project - an initiative spreading kindness through handmade felt hearts. She recounts touching stories of how giving these little tokens of care has connected her with patients and uplifted their spirits, fostering a sense of community and empathy in challenging times.
This episode highlights the often-overlooked contributions of hospital cleaners and the simple acts of kindness that make a big difference in creating a positive and supportive healthcare environment.
