Gunma University aims to set up an adolescent room in the pediatric ward of the Gunma University Hospital in Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture, and is collecting funds through the crowdfunding service READYFOR.As of February 2500, 2 people have donated 18 yen toward the set amount of 511 million yen.
According to Gunma University, eight courses were set up by amount ranging from 3000 yen to 100 million yen.If the goal is achieved, Gunma University will be funded, and it will be accepted until 8:3 am on March 31.
The adolescent room is a space where teenage inpatients can spend quietly, and is often installed in Western hospitals as a place that is neither a hospital room nor a childhood playroom. In addition to spending quiet time alone, it will be a free space where you can interact with your friends.
It is necessary for children who are still developing and growing to spend time in a child-like way through play and learning.In the children's playroom, the nursery staff in the ward play an active role in alleviating the mental distress of young children and enhancing the environment for their growth.
Gunma University Hospital is a pediatric tertiary medical institution in Gunma Prefecture.Playing the role of the last bastion of pediatric medical care in the region, children suffering from childhood cancer, chronic nephritis, type I diabetes, and intractable neurological diseases are hospitalized.The establishment of an adolescent room has been considered for some time, but was shelved due to lack of funds.
