Supporting your child/young person for a hospital procedure
The recommendations in these hand-outs and resources are designed for parents and carers to support their child. In order to build trust, it is recommended that parents prepare their child for their hospital visit in an age and stage appropriate way. Parents should choose strategies most appropriate for their child and may need to try different approaches to see what works best for them.
