What kid likes going to the hospital? An unfamiliar environment, unfamiliar
people, and you don't feel well. What's to like?
Well, Healthmark Industries and Avanti Press have come up with a solution
to help alleviate hospital anxiety for children.
Avanti Press is known for its fun-loving animal characters that grace
their greeting cards, from chipmunks in tutus, to dogs in superhero capes, to dancing penguins - all designed to make anyone smile. Healthmark Industries recently partnered with Avanti Press to bring a welcomed distraction to young patients who are in the
hospital. Together, we recently introduced ceiling and wall decals to C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor, Michigan to help alleviate child anxiety in a hospital environment. From the ER waiting room to the operating room, the cute and larger than life
wall and ceiling decals are designed to help kids feel more at ease in what can be a scary environment for a child. We also provided stickers for these young patients as a badge of courage on their patient gown, or as a way to make an IV bag a bit more friendly,
with a smiling pig with a daisy in its mouth. To provide a comforting conversation piece between healthcare workers and children, we have designed single and multi-use fun, animal-themed scrub caps for doctors and nurses to wear as a friendly distraction.
The C.S. Mott Children's Hospital staff were so happy with the results
that the healthcare workers requested the scrub hats for their hospitals that serve adults as well.
Ceiling decals, wall decals, stickers and single-use and reusable
scrub caps are available by contacting Healthmark 1-800-521-6224 or by visiting
www.hmark.com.
