  • Summary

  • In this episode, we’re at Leeds Children's Hospital, one of 27 across the country and the only one in West Yorkshire. As with any large hospital, it has state of the art facilities, world leading doctors and nurses and has specialisms in cancer treatment, transplantation, and congenital heart surgery.

    All the staff here are dedicated to delivering the best possible outcomes for every child and it's clear that the aim here is to make the hospital feel less like a hospital with bright colours, murals and paintings covering the walls. There are playrooms on the wards with everything from play mats and toys for the younger children to games consoles and pool tables for the older ones. Leeds Children's hospital even has a fully fledged school under its roof so that Children who need to be in patients or have treatment frequently don't miss out on their learning.

    There's so much to talk about that this hospital provides outside of just the medicine but in this episode, we wanted to find out more about a role we didn't know existed…

    The Play Specialist.
