Benefits and Perks:
Kids who stay in hospitals and have to undergo lengthy and sometimes painful treatment usually have a lack of appetite; some tend to be silent and apathetic. However, all the kids who have once interacted with Robin have shown interest in meeting it again. There were cases of improved appetite and an increase in cheerfulness after interactions with Robin. Medical practitioners also said Robin managed to engage children in a cooperative environment and make them more communicative, allowing hospital and clinic staff to perform their duties easier and with less frustration.
"Robin provides a near-human experience at a time where we are limited in having these relationships and these companionships, particularly in the hospital. Along with the subjective, we are also seeing some of the clinical and medical benefits, in terms of patients eating more, participating in activities, getting out of bed, and doing the things that we would like to see them do so that they recover quicker and are able to go to the usual activities as soon as possible," says Dr. Shant Shekerdimian, Pediatric Surgeon at UCLA Mattel Children's Hospital.
