You go to the children’s ward after the doctors and nurses have decided you aren’t so sick that you need to stay in intensive care. Your friends and family usually feel happy at this time because going to the ward is a normal part of getting better.

The ward nurses will still keep a very close eye on you and make sure that you are recovering after your ABI, operation and stay on intensive care.

You might make a few friends there too! There will be other children and teenagers to speak to and the nurses can be good fun too if they aren’t too busy!
