Helping Serve All the Child's Needs
Children’s Hospitals are unique in their caring for the broader set of a patient’s needs including mental, behavioral and educational development. Misty II can help support this mission. Children have the ability to engage with robots and treat them as lifelike agents, opening the door for Misty II to:
- Support emotional, social and cognitive growth
- Keep patients’ minds busy during hospital stays
- Create distractions during treatment
- Mitigate fears and anxieties/stress
- Provide a sense of normalcy
- Reduce isolation from friends and family
- Smooth the patient-age divide
