ABSTRACT<br />
Summery<br />
The physiotherapist and the hospital clown learning to work together meeting with<br />
chronically ill children. What is their common experience in their effort to inspire joyful<br />
play and exercise in children with chronic health problems?<br />
Method<br />
I have made three systematic e-mail interviews with one hospital clown and two<br />
physiotherapists, the latter having long time experience in working together with hospital<br />
clowns.<br />
Results and discussion<br />
The physiotherapists and the hospital clown agreed that successful cooperation required<br />
the ability to separate their different roles and functions, to plan well the activities<br />
beforehand and to keep open the possibilities for improvisation.<br />
Conclusion<br />
The interested physiotherapists will through working with the hospital clown, benefit in<br />
their efforts to stimulate exercise in and physical treatment of chronically ill children, in<br />
an atmosphere of play and laughter.<br />
