Event Goals:
The two objectives of this course are (1) to share with
pediatric medical staff communication techniques using
play, and (2) to introduce newer professions, such as
Italy’s ‘Professional Educator’ and other psychosociallyoriented professions, to those who currently work with
children.
The psychosocial care of the child and his/her family is not
an accessory aspect in the treatment of the hospitalized
child, but rather an essential element of the process of
care. It is now widely demonstrated that creativity and
play are the means by which it is possible to structure a
relationship with the outside world, express and
communicate feelings, control situations, reverse roles,
express aggression, and actively reenact that which the
child was required to experience passively.
During hospitalization, being able to channel the
fantasies, fears and needs of the child, means being able
to support the whole family, and health workers
themselves, in the process of comprehensive care.
