Individuals who have suffered from a serious accident must work hard to find their way back to a normal life where they often experience very desperate moments. Movements or processes previously taken for granted must be re-learnt in arduous, painful and lengthy therapy. Many patients are confronted with the worst consequences of accidents such as spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury and amputation. Also, they must deal with the separation from their familiar social environment for many months.
With RNPS Healthcare Clowns visits to rehabilitation centres, our trained professional clowns provide patients the psychosocial support needed during their therapeutic phase by applying particular methods and techniques studied in the RED NOSES Curriculum. In response, these techniques motivate the patient to follow and practice required exercises by the therapist and to accomplish them with strength and determination without feeling defeated or bored.
RED NOSES Palestine Healthcare Clowns make regular visits at The Jerusalem Princess Basma Center in Jerusalem.
