“A Little Deep Sleep” – an animated video from the UK about coming to hospital.

“A Little Deep Sleep” is a great 6-minute animated video from the UK about coming into hospital for anaesthesia and surgery. It’s another good time to talk about coming to hospital with your child.

Produced by ForMed Films and funded by the Grand Appeal Charity for from Bristol Royal Hospital for Children.

After your virtual tour of the hospital spend some time talking to your child about what you have seen together. There may be lots of questions over the next few days. We suggest you answer these honestly but in a way that will reassure your child. If there are any questions that you can’t answer you can ask them when you get to hospital.

See the “Talking to your child” section for tips on how best to talk to children coming to hospital.
