Empowering Pediatric Patients: Nurturing Positive Surgical Experiences

How can we help children have a positive surgical experience? What role does anticipatory guidance play in helping kids understand the procedure they’re going to have? Joining us today to help us better understand how to communicate with children is Erica Basora, MSN, RN, NPD-BC, CNOR, Clinical Specialist at Northside Hospital. We’ll discuss the different needs of children based on their growth and development. We’ll also find out what drove Erica to write and publish children’s books, including a book that helps kids know what to expect before surgery. You don’t want to miss this conversation!
