LEGO has been known in helping local communities and recently, LEGO has been sending out MRI scanners sets to hospitals to help prepare children with their treatments. The sets would aid in reducing anxiety and make their experience more playful and less scary.
The LEGO Foundation is in the process to improving the availability of the LEGO MRI Scanner set and will be sharing information for hospitals to request them along with educational materials. For those who work in the medical field and want to request the set, I would suggest following The LEGO Foundation Twitter page and their Linkedin for updates.
LEGO employee Erik Ullerlund Staehr had a great idea – to build a LEGO model of an MRI scanner that could help medical staff prepare children for treatment. This would reduce their anxiety and make their experience more playful and less scary. The MRI model is now being built by employees across the world to distribute to their local hospitals.
I have a small weekend project – LEGO is donating model MRI Scanners to hospital Radiology departments to help children who may be nervous understand the process. I get to build one! pic.twitter.com/9C5MzulNtK
