Members of the Windsor St. Clair Saints hockey team visited the Windsor Regional Hospital Paediatric Services on Saturday afternoon to spend some time with the children and give them some Christmas presents. It was an enjoyable experience for all involved. Some of the players brought their own gifts but many were also donated by St. Clair College staff.
As Saints Captain Erik Stone stated, "it was nice to spend some time with the children and hopefully the children got as much out of it as me and my teammates did."
Paediatric Services consist of a 33-bed Inpatient and Outpatient Service. The Inpatient Unit focuses on current and future health care needs of children, promoting proactive health practices focused on the child’s entire well being through health promotion and a progressive approach to child development and care.
Child Life Services is an integral part of the Paediatric service that assists to reduce patient stress and assists in developing ways to help children cope with fear and anxiety, separation and adjustment to health care experiences.
