Can't understate how important it is to engage children in their treatment, and nothing is more engaging than play. (luckily the Lego scanner was taken from me before I got "too engaged" at work)
Many thanks to the Horndean division Trefoil Guild who have purchased this fabulous brick CT scanner for our department from Bright Bricks. It will be most useful in preparing children for CT.

It has proven incredibly effective. Rather than just distraction, it provides focussed attention and audiovisual separation. Great for anxious children. Look for our poster at #PIER2019
Day 5 #PlayInHospitalWeek - the future. We have started utilising a VR headset as part of our distraction with excellent results. Perfect for sutures & cannulation. Doctors even managed to place a chest drain whilst patient was using the headset! Patient approved 👍🏻 @starlight_uk
