How to connect with child life services at The James

[Music playing]

Brianna Wall: If you're wanting to get your family connected with our services and you are a James patient, you can ask your provider to place an inpatient consult to Child Life Services or an ambulatory referral, and we'll happily get in touch with you to figure out next steps.

If you are outside of the central Ohio area and you're still looking for these services, you can just ask your care team to see what is available near you.

If you have a loved one who is navigating similar circumstances but are not receiving care at The James, there are some additional community supports that we encourage families to look into. For example, James Care for Life. We work very closely and they have family, teens' and childrens' programming, as well as parenting through cancer, where you can talk with a James social worker or learn about resources to help kids. When you are navigating a situation like this, these supports are free to community members and James patients.
