CoxHealth - Because Life Happens
 

Pediatric Pre-operative Party
CoxHealth Children's Hospital Services

The Children's Hospital Services staff of CoxHealth wants to help you and your child understand more about his or her upcoming surgery and hospitalization. We realize that fear of the unknown may cause emotional trauma in children, and we hope to relieve some of that fear. Our program is designed to give information to your child in terms he or she will understand. We hope this will make your child more comfortable with surgery and hospitalization.

We will also provide education on our Family Surgery Program. The Family Surgery Program gives children's families the option of allowing one support person in the operating room during the induction of anesthesia.

The program will answer any questions you may have.

Party Agenda

  1. Explanation of medical equipment
  2. Tour of hospital (including operating room)
  3. Video presentation of outpatient hospital experience
  4. Family surgery orientation for parents
  5. Refreshments and gift for the child
