Halloween in Pediatrics: smiles and solidarity in the Polyclinic and Papardo departments
On October 27 and 29, the hospital wards turned into a time of celebration to give a day of care to young patients and their families

A Halloween of solidarity and the most precious magic: that of smiles. On the days of 27 and 29 October, the wards of the Pediatrics departments of the A.O.U. Policlinico "G. Martino" and of the A.O. Papardo welcomed a special initiative, designed to bring joy and lightheartedness to small hospitalized patients.
A Moment of Party and Play
Days spent in the hospital can prove to be particularly burdensome for children and the families who care for them. In this spirit, the initiative wanted to transform, for a few hours, the departments into an environment of pure celebration. Between colorful masks, distribution of gifts, games and a lot of joy, we tried to lighten the clinical routine, pulling the plug to give the little heroes in the lane a parenthesis of normal and well-deserved lightheartedness.
On thanks to the healthcare staff
The perfect success of this project would not have been possible without the availability and collaboration of the hospital facilities. A heartfelt thank you goes to the doctors, nurses and all healthcare staff for the warm welcome given to the event, as well as to all those who continue to actively support these projects. A small gesture that aims to leave a special and positive memory for those who courageously face hospitalisation.
