Children's Hospital Installs Printed Ceiling Tiles in Hospital Rooms to Give Kids Visual Relief from their Medical Realities
Children's Mercy Hospital incorporates new, colorful, printed ceiling tiles (CeilingScenes), to soften the environments where children undergo diagnosis, treatment and convalesce.
Kansas City, MO (PRWEB) August 2, 2004 -- Melissa Pulis, MSM, CCLS, Child
Life Manager at CMH Hospitals and Clinics spearheaded the use of this new
ceiling treatment to ease their young patient’s stress and find a distraction to
help medical personnel in diagnosis and treatments.
During the months of
June and July of this year, CMH installed over (25) CeilingScenes in various
areas including; radiology, diagnostic, treatment, and patient’s
rooms.
Melissa concludes: “These ceiling tiles have totally changed the
feeling of the areas where they are installed. The children love to look at them
and it really lifts their spirits and gives them something else to think about
beside their problems, treatment, or how long they have to be hospitalized. The
CeilingScenes are like visual candy and it really improves their mood and
outlook.”
Larry Losr, President of Applied Visual Concepts, the parent of
CeilingScenes products, states: This is a very cost effective ($35.95 to $65.95
ea.) method of totally transforming a very sterile, and foreign environment into
a friendly, more pleasant place to be.
CeilingScenes are produced and
sold by
