We’re proud to offer music therapy at Golisano Children’s Hospital to address the physical, emotional, social, and cognitive needs of our patients and families. 💙🎶

While it may look like entertainment at times, these techniques utilize a patient’s favorite song to help reach medical goals like decreasing pain, getting out of bed after a surgery, or improving compliance with medications and treatments.

This Child Life Service is made possible at Golisano Children's Hospital through philanthropy with the Lee Health Foundation.

No sweeter of a moment to share than this one 🥹

We recently celebrated Aaron AND his father, as they rang their end of treatment bells together! 🔔

While Aaron just completed chemotherapy for leukemia, Raynel never had the opportunity to ring his bell following his own treatment. We’re excited and honored to have been able to celebrate them both on this day!
