How 'Child's Play' Uses Video Games to Improve Pediatric Care

Today we interview Travis Eriksen, Executive Director of Child's Play about the video games, technology, and education they provide to serve children in healthcare facilities. We’ll talk about how Child’s Play was able to turn around negative bias towards gaming in the media, the ways in which Child’s play provides equipment to facilities and assistance to Child’s Life staff members, and the Child’s Play gaming guide, which provides recommendations to staff and parents on games suitable to a variety of situations.
