The Giggle Doctors
Each Giggle Doctor has basic artistic training – such as magic, theatre, music, mime. They are trained and accompanied by the Theodora Foundation according to the Code of Ethics.
The training to become a Giggle Doctor is realised in close cooperation with the College of Health “La Source”. The theoretical part consists of various courses on the hospital environment, with a special focus on the hygiene measures to be observed. It also includes a series of artistic workshops. Acquiring, maintaining and developing the skills of the artists are of central importance to the Foundation.
