“When I tell them that we have video games for patients to play you can visibly see them relax. Parents are relieved to know that we can provide something familiar and comforting for their child during a stressful time in their lives.”
“It was frightening and painful, and nobody wanted to explain anything to a 5-year old. The thing that changed me forever, though, wasn't the surgery, it was the game cart.”
“With Child's Play funds, we were able to install wall mounts, a security tether, and control in each room. We were also able to purchase additional controllers for when family members want to play along with the patient. ”
“Video games didn't save my life, and I didn't have a terminal disease, but they took what could have been one of the worst experiences of my life and made it my most positive hospital-related experience to date.”
“Thank you so much for the cart, TV, XBox, games, and controllers...I love that they can play with limited supervision, and we do not have to worry about anything getting broken or lost.”
“The increased gift this year has opened the door to explore opportunities for using virtual reality in our practice.”
