The JASMA Healthcare Planter serves multiple purposes:
“We planted our planter last month and it is thriving! The patients love having it in the lounge - there has been much interest in looking after the plants, and it brightens up the space. Thank you very much for everything, we are happy to be a part of the Healthcare Planter Program.”
Laura Bitze CTRS, Recreation Therapist, Geriatric Psychiatry Program, Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre
...In addition to the physical and mental health benefits that gardening can provide, we hope that in providing a connection to nature and past life experiences through the use of these planters, we will provide a sense of hope, purpose and belonging to our residents which is reflected in our mission statement of “Experiencing hope, purpose and belonging in healthcare"."
Additionally, JASMA Healthcare Planters are still available! If you are interested in receiving one, please contact us at: info@oubliepouruninstant.org.
