"For a child, entering the hospital and especially the emergency room environment is a traumatic and stressful event, especially if it occurs in the cold and aseptic environment typical of most hospital environments, which are incapable of capturing the child's attention and stimulating his imagination. Therefore, creating, through the decoration of environments, a child-friendly place of care capable of diverting, with images and emotions, his attention from what is happening around him, not only reduces his feeling of fear but also contributes to reducing the state of anxiety of the parents while also allowing a more serene action on the part of health workers. It is with this in mind that the Emmaland Charitable Association decided to initiate, in collaboration with Silvio Irilli, a well-known artist in Italy and around the world and founder of Painted Hospitals, the “Emma's Garden” project. The project involves the creation of a painting extended to all the walls and part of the ceiling of the pediatric ER room that will give children the feeling of being not in a hospital but immersed in an Enchanted Garden capable of alleviating discomfort and pain by capturing their attention through reassuring colors and images. Humanization of the diagnostic-care pathway has always been at the center of the mission of the s.c. Pediatrics-Neonatology of Borgomanero and that is why we gladly support the proposal of the Emmaland Association in memory of little Emma who, like a very brief meteor crossed our department leaving with her smile an indelible memory in all the operators who knew her. I sincerely thank the Association, Emma's parents and all those who, through their generosity, will make the project possible. "
