Hospital clowns are trained performers who visit patients in medical facilities to provide emotional support and entertainment. They use humor, magic tricks, and playful interactions to help reduce anxiety and improve the overall atmosphere in hospitals. Their goal is to bring joy and laughter to children and adults facing health challenges. These clowns often work alongside medical staff and are part of child life programs that focus on the psychological well-being of patients. Research shows that laughter can have positive effects on healing, making hospital clowns a valuable addition to patient care in pediatric wards and other healthcare settings.
