Abstract
In 2006, Riley Hospital staff undertook a pilot project which allowed a group of patients to work with experienced art therapist Elyce Elder and Child Life staff members to create artwork that depicted their hospital experience. Creating the art provided the children a “voice” to discuss their hospital experience. Elder interpreted the artwork with the children to clarify what they were thinking and feeling. This project was put into a book, “Patiently Doctoring,” which is now being used in family communication courses at the Indiana University School of Medicine.
