>> Ashley Kane: Hi, my name is Ashley Kane. I'm a Child Life specialist here at the Penn
State Hershey Children's Hospital. Child Life is a great program we have here with support
of Children's Miracle Network. We provide services to children all over the hospital
from the emergency department to the inpatient floor to the outpatient clinics. The hospital
can be really scary for kids so we do some things to make it a little bit easier. These
are distraction items; the kids love to use these when they're waiting a long time for
a test or a procedure to happen. And these are some of our tools that we use for medical
play, and we use these tools to help children understand in a more child friendly manner
what the doctors and nurses are using here at the hospital with their body. []
[ Drums ] [] Children's Miracle Network here at the Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital
helps us in so many way in the Child Life Program. From the littlest thing like a box
of crayons to the most expensive piece of medical equipment, it's your support of the
Children's Miracle Network that helps us here at the Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital
continue to provide these wonderful services. So please pick up the phone, give whatever
you can, and thank you for your support.
