Episode Description

In healthcare, innovation often begins with scientists, problem-solvers, and designers, AKA nurses who see challenges and envision solutions. In this SEE YOU NOW Insight from Episode 78: Making Spaces (Part I), Nursing Research & Innovation Coordinator Rose Hedges and MakerHealth co-founder and CEO Anna Young share how a chance encounter with the maker movement led to the creation of a hospital makerspace where nurses and patients design solutions together. These projects go beyond fixing problems. They restore independence, dignity, and joy; showing the transformative power of creativity when patients and nurses innovate side-by-side.
