Story Sharing For Health


SharingClinic is an audio listening kiosk that resides at the Maxwell and Eleanor Blum Patient and Family Learning Center, Massachusetts General Hospital as an interactive exhibit. The listening kiosk houses an array of audio clips taken from interviews with patients, patient’s loved ones and healthcare providers.

Mission: SharingClinic endeavors to empower and connect individuals facing health challenges, and to transform the culture of the hospital through storytelling.

Vision: Our goal is to expand the project and launch kiosks in other healthcare facilities and non-healthcare venues.

Now, you can access the content here! Search by diagnosis or by theme below.
