Solution

"Les P'tits Doudous" deploys five strong actions to reduce the anxiety of children undergoing surgery and improve their experience, that of their parents and the daily lives of caregivers:

1) Comforting comforters are offered to reassure or reward children during their time in the operating room.

2) The interactive "The hero is you"application enables them to become players in their journey, guiding them from their room to the OR through a fun and reassuring game.

3) Children can take advantage of electric cars, piloted by caregivers, to transform their journey to the operating room into a fun and playful moment.

4) Thanks to virtual reality headsets, they can immerse themselves in relaxing videos, specially designed to soothe them before and during surgery.

5) Complementing this, the "Keep Contact" app plays an essential role: it keeps parents informed in real time of their child's hospitalization stages. This reassuring connection makes all the difference for families who are often stressed.

These innovative actions transform a difficult moment into a gentler experience, where every detail counts to put a smile back on children's faces and soothe their loved ones.
