The Big Apple Circus Clown Care Program
The Big Apple Circus Clown Care program brings joy and laughter to young patients in seven New York City pediatric(兒科的) facilities, and 11 more across the country. 90 specially trained professional “clown doctors” visit nearly 250,000 bedsides a year, interacting with the children, family members and staff.
The Clown Care program is a part of the healing process for children who come to New York Presbyterian. The clown unit provides a unique way to reduce the stress associated with being in a hospital. Being able to bring a smile to the face of a sick child clearly complements(輔助) the excellent care provided by our doctors and nurses. We are thrilled to include the Clown Care program as part of our team.
