Child Life Program

The Child Life Program is a specialized service in hospitals that helps children and their families cope with the challenges of illness and hospitalization. Certified Child Life Specialists use play, education, and therapeutic interventions to reduce anxiety and promote positive experiences for young patients. They provide emotional support, prepare children for medical procedures, and help them understand their health conditions in a child-friendly way. By focusing on the psychological and developmental needs of children, the program aims to enhance their overall well-being and make their healthcare experience less stressful.
