Ludicidade e aprendizagem no contexto da hospitalização infantil: a importância de atividades lúdicas no processo de recuperação da criança hospitalizada: um relato de experiência

Abstract

During the hospitalization process there is a break in the routine of the child/adolescent, they are distanced from their family, friends, school, activities of daily living that are part of their routine, and with this sudden interruption can cause damage to their biopsychosocial development, which can cause damage to their learning, quality of life, socialization with their peers. In view of this, hospital pedagogy has emerged in an attempt to improve the quality of life of inpatient children. It promotes meaningful learning, bringing about changes in the hospital environment, making it more humanized, as well as integrating the entire interdisciplinary team in this process of promoting the health and quality of life of inpatient children. The aim of this study was to understand the importance of using play for hospitalized children, mediated by the pedagogue, based on the assumption of humanization and non-formal teaching and learning spaces. It is well known that through playful educational practices children develop their imagination, express their emotions, desires and longings during the hospitalization process. This study is a qualitative descriptive research, of the experience report type.
