The Children’s Accident and Emergency Department at Calderdale Royal Hospital sees around 16,000 children a year who are sick or injured and need emergency care. Visiting A&E may be scary and confusing for children, but having a calming and welcoming area to wait in can help to alleviate worries and stress. The team at Royal Calderdale want to upgrade their existing waiting room to a bright, spacious area with sensory wall panels and an LED projector to create soothing lighting effects. The equipment should last at least 15 years, benefiting many thousands of children visiting the A&E unit each year.
