    Be Positive

    Be Positive (B+) is your way of finding out more about The Royal Children's Hospital. B+ host Carlie and her two loveable friends, Jazz and Rocco, are here to help you learn and understand more about  hospital, and what happens here. Meet the different people that look after you during your stay, learn about the technology that helps you get better, and discover what makes RCH a great hospital.

    Hospital Lingo

    If you know your tongue depressor from your pulse oximeter you'll be in the running for a prize on our game show Hospital Lingo. Patients of any age can play. All you need is a phone and a Hospital Lingo sheet from the ward clerk. It's just like playing Bingo, but with all the weird and wonderful things found in hospital.

    Hospital Lingo is on RCH TV every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 12pm.
