“Prescription Joy offered a break from the nurse checks and medicine infusions that allowed Beauregard [my child] to relax and take a moment to contemplate the meaning of a joke instead of his circumstance. We are very grateful to them for the light-hearted moments during our journey!"
-Christy Dirks
Parent of child at New Orleans Children’s Hospital
“The medical clowns are a wonderful asset to provide entertainment to our patients during the most
challenging time of their life. The laughter and distraction they provide allows patients to rise to
their full potential in therapy. Not to mention they give the staff a good laugh as well!”
-Kristen Crifasi Occupational Therapist
