One way to decrease the stress of hospitalization for children is to make the child's room a safe place where painful and frightening treatments and procedures do not occur.The manager should create a treatment room on the unit.Dim lighting might be peaceful and lead to better rest,but is not the best answer,nor is providing guest trays.Play areas for younger children especially should be kept secure for patient safety.
