Abstract

Hospitalization is a frightening experience when a child undergoes treatment because the stressors experienced can cause feelings of discomfort and anxiety. Anxiety will be excessive if there is no balance between the challenges or stressors being faced and can cause significant suffering and distress. Atraumatic care is a restorative methodology to reduce pain, nervousness, and injury during medical care and also helps children and families survive through physical and mental stress. From the results of the researcher's observations, qualitative data was obtained through interviews with several nurses, most children experience anxiety and stressors ranging from 1-12 years of age. Therefore, this community service activity is in the form of the SI HARMONI program (Strategy for Improving Relationships, Activities, Relaxation, Motivation, Optimism, Nurturing, and Inclusion), namely a guide that contains guidelines on how to deal with atraumatic care in children aged 1-12 years and SOP for selected therapies that will be carried out by children according to their needs and age types using the Patient Centered Care (PCC) approach as a solution to reduce anxiety and stressors in hospitalized children when receiving invasive procedures and the focus of the intervention to be carried out is play therapy. The purpose of community service is to improve the knowledge, abilities, and skills of health workers/nurses about atraumatic care management in children.
