Closing the Gap to Support Children in the Hospital
Why Supporting Child Life Departments Matters
Creating a positive environment for children during their hospital stay is crucial for their mental and emotional well-being. Being in the hospital can be a scary and overwhelming experience for children, and it’s important to ensure that they feel comfortable and supported during this time. Child Life departments play a critical role in making this happen by providing play opportunities, emotional support, and education to children and their families.
By providing additional support to Child Life departments through our Helping Hands Program, we aim to make their jobs a little bit easier and ensure that they have the resources they need to create a positive and nurturing environment for their patients. This can include essential items such as toys, games, books, clothing, and other supplies that can help distract children from the stress of their hospital stay and provide a sense of normalcy.
At Sawyer’s Wish™, we believe that every child deserves the best possible care and support during their hospital stay, and we are committed to doing our part to make this happen. By working together with Child Life departments, we can help create a more positive and comforting hospital experience for children and their families.
