West Boca (FL) Medical Center’s Jill Wiser, RN, had a unique view of the utility of medicine vial caps, syringe holders, and paint samples.

Wiser turned the materials into five mosaic-like abstract pieces of art that are now on display at the medical center, reports Nurse.com. The pieces are made by assembling the caps on a piece of canvas about 3 feet wide. The nurse’s station, CNO office, and nursery are all decorated with the pieces. Wiser also plan to create a special piece to be auctioned for charity. (View one of the pieces here.)

What do you think? Could your hospital do with some more artwork of this kind? Or do you know of a nurse who has a similar side project that benefits your hospital?
