Evaluation Child Life Specialist
Beschreibung
Child life specialists (CLS) work together with doctors and nurses on pediatric wards as psychosocial support on an interdisciplinary basis. Their main task is to promote the development and well-being of young patients and to reduce the negative effects of hospitalisation and medical treatment.
A CLS team has been established at the Dr. von Haunersche Kinderspital of the LMU Munich since the beginning of 2020. In cooperation with the hospital, the CLS project will be evaluated and its applicability in the German care system tested. At the beginning of the project, the current state of care on the ward will be surveyed. In the further course of the project, the effects of the program will be assessed with qualitative and quantitative surveys.
