UPEI Nursing Student Society holds teddy bear clinic for children in Campus Kids Daycare

Much to the children’s delight, the students showed them how to check their teddies’ hearts, blood pressure, and oxygen levels. The students also x-rayed and treated “broken” and “sprained” limbs and tails, treated sore tummies, and made all the toys—and their young owners—feel better.
