Most children are afraid of needles, especially when they are in the hands of doctors and nurses. So parents appreciate any action that helps them deal with this inevitable drink calmly.
For this reason, videos like this posted on Facebook, where a nurse is seen calming a child who is afraid of getting an injection, succeed in social networks.
The reason? The health professional manages to give the injection to the little one without crying with a creative trick.
Although the video was recorded a few months ago by one of the parents of the child, it is now when it has been released and has been played by different social networks without stopping.
It shows how the nurse enters the consultation and talks with the child, who seems to be healthy and is a periodic pediatric review. He takes the hand of the small protagonist telling him that they were going to paint on a sheet and makes a few small pricks on his fingers. The child is surprised to realize that it has not hurt. "I have not cried", he says looking at the camera.
The hugs trick
But then come the vaccines. So the nurse asks the child: "Hold me tight and show me your muscles."
The little brave begins to realize that the moment of true injection has arrived. You can see how he asks her to hold her tight and punctures him in one arm, and then repeats the same with the other arm. Although the child screams a little, at no time he cries and finally receives a five dollar reward that apparently they had promised.
The comments highlight the great creativity of the nurse to carry out their work and indicating that, if they had more professionals like that, the children would stop being afraid to go to the doctor, although with the reward in money not everyone agrees. what do you think?
More creative examples
That all the initiatives of health professionals that help mothers and their children in the hard sanitary procedures are proven. Some of the examples collected and published in Babies and More are that of a medical team from Zhejiang University Hospital in China, stopped a heart operation to reassure their little patient, only two years old. Xin Er started crying when he reached the operating room and saw so many tubes and devices, and the doctors delayed the operation until they got the girl to relax.
We also talk about the Brazilian obstetrician Fernando Guedes da Cunha, who invents the choreographies and dances with his patients to help women relax in labor and help their babies be born.
And also parents do everything in our power to comfort our little ones. It is the case of Antwon Lee, who chose to speak with sincerity to his son and connect emotionally with him to better withstand the pain of vaccines.
