When children are admitted into a hospital they experience numerous amounts of emotions including fear, anger, abandonment, rejection, resentment, loneliness, embarassment, and guilt. Take Good Care Back Packs is a support program I am developing with the Child Life Specialists at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. Take Good Care Back Packs will be given to pediatric patients when they are first admitted into the hospital in hopes that the backpacks will provide the children with fun activities that will keep their minds off of their unfortunate situation.
