How a visit works
TESTIMONALS
“When Penelope visited the
hospital, she was an unusual but welcomed visitor that
provided a nice diversion to our patients and families
that were dealing with stress of medical treatments.
While at the hospital she was able to visit with the
patients in our central activity room. She took a ride
on the elevator, which the patients found funny.”
Stated, Stephanie Byrwa, public relations manager,
Shriners Hospitals for Children-Philadelphia
