Give a child something to play with and he will forget his pains, children are an amazing and wonderful bundle of joy God has given us and so, therefore, they are unique, but when they in pains or in agony, we can't but feel emotional for these little ones. A children's hospital in California decided to add a twist to make life easier and more fun for kids and I was wondering, what if we have this type of treatment in Massey Hospital in Lagos.

A children’s hospital in California has unveiled a special feature to put its young patients at ease as they head into the operating room.

Children at the Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego can now “drive” themselves to their procedures in luxury mini-cars.

The fancy sets of wheels, which are actually operated by a nurse or doctor, are part of a new program designed to relax children before their operations.

“We’re so excited,” said Dr. Daniela Carvalho, the hospital's medical director of surgical services.

“Just the fact that... we’re able to help our children and their families in the operating room relax a little bit more, and actually have fun when they’re going to the operating room, is just tremendous.”

Children can choose from a miniature BMW, Mercedes or Lamborghini, which were donated by the San Diego Regional Law Enforcement Teddy Bear Drive.

So far, the cars have been a big hit, Carvalho said.

“The kids are having fun, the parents are seeing that they’re relaxed and that they’re happy, but for us — I mean, we’re driving the cars, we’re having fun, too, of course,” she said.

Other hospitals have also made similar upgrades to their modes of transportation to take their young patients’ minds off things.

Whats your take? What about having this is Massey Children's Hospital in Lagos?

This will only work in the USA and other developed countries.

If Governor Ambode tries this in LASUTH, those mini cars will vanish overnight. The medical director will pack them and give to his womanfriend's children in Sagamu.

A true definition of an economy that has the interest of its citizens at heart..


Go to LUTH in idi-araba Lagos, Military hospital Yaba or any FMC around Lagos and see the way doctors and nurses treat/attend to women with their dying children, then you'll wonder if they have lost touch with their conscience..


God bless all doctors and nurses who still have conscience and passion for saving lives.!

That's nice....

Tell me how kids will grow in this type of environment and not grow up to be superstars.
In other words your environment plays a major role in your life.

Trust Naija hospitals, they will charge the kids for the ride..

these people are just moving forward on per second basis. Nigeria just moved 50years backwards by electing buhari.

Biko tell me how person go take die here, only riding the ride alone you will be healed

I like how they think...

Nice one

That is a country that God has blessed so much not in my country that God has rejected long ago

nice concept. Nigerian govt has nothing to offer except lies, corruption and backward

And here we are still dealing with cows

Even if USA should stop developing and dcide to wait for naigeria to meet up, it will take Nigeria one million years to meet up.

Not in Nigeria.. A kid of that age is in port harcourt prison yard.. The fund has been taken away by snake and monkey

This one cannot happen in Lagos o, Unless its going to be on the island. Based on experience, a kid in mainland would spoil the car or pata pata e go turn fight

Nice development, but this cant work in Nigeria because of corruption. God forgive our leaders.

ordinary toys some hospitals don't provide in nigeria for kids

9ja my country

Na cow ride nigeria de offer

Meanwhile, their agemates in one country lai dat

That is a country, I think nigeria should be changed from a country to a rural settlement

With President Buhari at the helm of affairs, We shall soon get something better

These are folks who considers the child's psychology as a factor in medicare. They keep researching on how to make the lives of their children more comfortable while poor facilities litter around us, some are still arguing their rights to more wives and children.

Most of our health workers are rather professionals in trauma inducing practices.

Please how do you apply for relocation to another country??

Lol.

Country that works. I know of a useless country in Africa where a nurse will first prepare injections in front of a screaming child. "oya oo, they look omo- omo,this injection wey I dey mix, na for your yansh I go shook am last last"
