Children's Healthcare of Atlanta is always looking for different, unique ways to motivate patients. Recently, the system partnered with Tiny Doors Atlanta to add a new element to one of its gardens.
Tiny Doors Atlanta can be found throughout the city and have become a popular attraction. It took hours to build the new display at the Egleston hospital complete with a tiny door painted in Children's signature green
"The project is designed to motivate patients to get out of bed for a garden walk – even when they aren’t always feeling their best – and inspire imagination that catapults them to far away magical places outside of the hospital," according to a news release.
Children's said it is the first tiny door to be ADA-compliant and features a widened door frame and wheelchair ramp.
For National Hospital Week, Children's and Tiny Doors decorated the display with themes "Tie-Dye Tuesday" and "Wellness Wednesday."
Tiny Doors will install two more displays at other Children's locations. The garden is only open for patients and their families.
