Abstract
Facilitating play for the hospitalized child is widely recognized as a valid nursing intervention. The need for collaboration between child life staff and nursing staff is also noted. There then need to be opportunities for nursing students to participate in child life activities and to practice skills in facilitating play for the hospitalized child. This paper describes a clinical experience for nursing students to increase their knowledge of play and to introduce students to the role of the child life program on a pediatric hospital unit.
