Children With Autism: Preparing for Surgery Day

Use this step-by-step video from UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital team to show your child what to expect when they come for surgery. This video helps parents prepare for a child surgery by showing them what they will experience from their arrival at the parking lot to their final ride in the wheelchair when it is time to go home.
A hospital visit can often be a scary experience for a child with autism if they are unprepared or don't know what to expect. We hope this helps.
