RED NOSE Clowndoctors
Laughter does not know age
The program consists of medical clowns visiting the elderly in 31 senior facilities and geriatric wards of hospitals throughout Slovakia. Seniors are not only bothered by declining strength, but they also often face loneliness. In addition, days in hospitals and social services tend to flow slowly and monotonously. Through the Laughter Doesn't Know Age program they bring patients pleasure and encouragement.
Attention as medicine
Hospital days are associated with worries and difficult issues. The health clowns bring a smile not only to children but also to adults, who are more aware of their health than children. The mission of the clowns has a clear goal: to lighten the atmosphere, to bring new stimuli and to help patients get rid of gloomy thoughts, at least for a while.
