Advocate Children's Hospital - Oak Lawn Teddy Bear Clinic

In celebration of Child Life Month, Advocate Children's Hospital in Oak Lawn, IL, recently hosted a heartwarming Teddy Bear Clinic feature our very own teddies. The event, designed to celebrate the crucial work of child life specialists while educating children about medical procedures in a delightful and interactive manner, was a resounding success.

The Teddy Bear Clinic provided children with the opportunity to explore different medical procedures in a playful environment, helping to alleviate any fears or anxieties they may have about hospital visits. Through engaging activities and demonstrations, the child life specialists guided the children and their teddy bear companions through simulated medical scenarios, including an x-ray machine! Our teddy bears added a touch of warmth and comfort to the clinic, enriching the experience for the young participants.
