Initial Meeting

In the past 2 years a new national organization, called the American Association for Child Care in Hospitals, has evolved. This organization was initiated by the six "play ladies" who are in charge of the children's hospital programs in Baltimore, Boston, Cleveland, Montreal, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh. Two years ago, the Children's Hospital Medical Center (CHMC) in Boston was host to 50 participants from these institutions to found the organization. This initial meeting was abetted by the CHMC's concern for total patient care and was made possible by the backing of the administration and the pediatric and psychiatric departments.

Patient Care Quality

In 1970, prior to present-day requirements for quality assurance programs, a project was undertaken to institute such a program voluntarily in ten hospitals. Five hospitals succeeded in fully implementing the program which was based on the "Bi-Cycle Process" and each documented improvements in desired patient care behaviors. Two hospitals partially implemented the process and demonstrated no significant changes in desired patient care behaviors. Two hospitals failed to provide the data upon which assessments could be made and one hospital never got beyond preliminary efforts at instituting the process. The project demonstrates that a voluntary quality assurance program is feasible and has important implications for PSROs and continuing medical education. It also provides evidence that attention to psychosocial factors is essential in the institutionalization of programs designed to produce desired changes in patient care behaviors.

In this issue of Pediatrics the article entitled "A New Design for Patient Care and Pediatric Education in a Children's Hospital: An Interim Report," by Green and Segar, represents a challenging approach to problems that are of increasing concern to pediatric educators and pediatric services of medical centers throughout the United States. It should be emphasized that the authors' plan is a proposed solution to the problems involved, and that the question as to whether it will constitute an answer will have to await analysis not only of their results but of the results of other approaches to the same problems.

Therapeutic Perspective

This article describes a comprehensive outline of suggested steps for founding a hospital-based Yoga therapy program. Bringing Yoga or other integrative modalities to inpatient settings is a very involved undertaking, both from an organizational and a therapeutic perspective. This article offers strategies for approaching hospitals; overcoming administrative, structural, legal, and cultural obstacles to developing a hospital-based program; integrating Yoga into patient care; and working with patients' families. To illustrate the general challenges, principles, and processes of forming a hospital-based Yoga therapy program, this article describes the author's experience of creating a Yoga therapy-based program for the Pediatric Development and Rehabilitation unit at Emanuel Children's Hospital in Portland, OR.
