This month, we recognize the role of Child Life Specialists at Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre (TBRHSC). These paediatric health care professionals work with children and families to help them cope with the challenges of hospitalization, illness, and disability. They provide children with age-appropriate preparation for medical procedures, pain management and coping strategies, and play and self-expression activities. They also provide information, support, and guidance to parents, siblings, and other family members.
Join us in showing appreciation to the Child Life Specialists at TBRHSC today.
