CHILDHOSPITALIZATIONJune 18, 2021

hospitalization the child automatically experiences atraumatic care, how can nurses minimize
atraumatic in children by means of family center care (involving the family in every action)
Understanding
Hospitalization is a process for an emergency reason or planning to require the child to
stay in the hospital to undergo therapy and care until returning home .
Child's Reaction to Hospitalization

experience with illness, support systems and coping skills.
Generally, children's reactions to illness are anxiety due to separation, loss, bodily harm and
pain.
