Hi! We’re two third year medical students at the University of Bristol! Our aim was to create a web page which could reduce anxiety for children who have sustained injuries requiring immobilisation. We know it can be scary to have a cast put on and taken off, and hospitals can be stressful! Hopefully, through education, we can relieve some of that stress.
We welcome any feedback. Please feel free to contact us below:
