Children navigating the healthcare environment can be faced with many different challenges, ranging from building comfort in an unfamiliar setting to coping through invasive and sometimes painful procedures. The Child Life Specialists at Children's Hospital of Michigan provide evidence-based, developmentally appropriate interventions including therapeutic play, preparation, and education that reduce fear, anxiety, and pain for infants, children, and youth. https://www.childrensdmc.org/services...
