Child Life Specialists

Child Life Specialists, located at Blank Children's Hospital, help children to find ways to cope with fear, anxiety and separation from family and friends. By using play, recreation and educational techniques, they enable children to better understand what is happening - reducing stress and increasing cooperation. They can also help children understand and face the fears of when a parent is diagnosed with cancer and receiving treatments.
