Refurbished playroom for Dolphin and Penguin Ward<br />
at <strong>Bristol</strong> Children’s Hospital<br />
Last year, the shared playroom between Dolphin<br />
and Penguin Ward at <strong>Bristol</strong> Children’s Hospital was<br />
refurbished for the first time since the hospital<br />
opened in 2001. The playroom is now fit for purpose<br />
and welcoming to all ages. It provides a broader<br />
selection of activities and is a playroom the<br />
children “love to spend time in”.<br />
The new playroom covers 40 inpatients and is used<br />
for arts and crafts, sensory play, preparation for<br />
procedures (distraction), as well as a relaxing area<br />
for older patients in the evenings. It is accessible to<br />
patients 24 hours a day, seven days a week.<br />
