Children dressed in mini medical scrubs proudly showed off their teddy bears’ bandaged legs and listened for fluffy heart beats on Monday at University College Cork’s (UCC) Teddy Bear Hospital.
More than 750 children will bring their injured or sick teddies to be treated by medical students at the Teddy Bear Hospital over the coming days.
