“…Anecdotally, Nikki shared this strong team approach gave her confidence in herself and the ET process. It is also important to highlight the value of the CL psychologist's ability to support and advocate for parents and families given their expertise and value on targeting parenting stress to improve child outcomes (Cammarata et al, 2020).…”

Objective: Parental stress can have an impact on health outcomes of chronically ill children (Cousino & Hazen, 2013). Pediatric psychologists are well suited to address these issues with understanding of empirically supported treatments, impact of mental health on medical care behaviors, and parent–child interactions (Ernst et al., 2015). Use of empirically supported treatments, such as graduated exposure therapy (ET), within an uncontrolled environment such as an inpatient setting can be challenging. This case study illustrates adaptation of ET in an inpatient setting to address parental mastery of medical care. Method: ET was implemented with a mother of an infant with a newly placed tracheostomy to reduce her severe anxiety that was preventing her from interacting with her infant or engaging in medical care necessary for hospital discharge. Results: Through 31 exposure sessions, the patient’s mother met all four treatment targets: daily tracheostomy care, stoma desensitization, tracheostomy tube changes, and suctioning. Self-reported distress data were presented for each exposure. Conclusions: Use of ET with a clear treatment plan and coordinated multidisciplinary inpatient team efforts can successfully reduce severe parental anxiety that is impeding medical care, hindering parent–child interaction, and interfering with parental ability to care for a child with complex medical needs. This article discusses multiple factors that are unique to the inpatient setting and the target behaviors for consideration.

The impact of live music programs in hospitals on children and their families is discussed within the context of a contemporary model of pediatric care. Through an overview of the development of the field of music in hospitals and of the role of the musicians, the chapter proposes a model of music in hospital that is focused on the cultural needs of the children and their right to access culture when they are in hospital. The cultural action that music brings in hospital is based on an intersection between music performance, music as informal education, and music as health. The model is discussed through the case of Musique et Santé, a leading organization in the field of music in hospital in Europe.
