Rochester General Hospital
Humor Education
Also called " Clownology 1"
Clownology 1 courses are offered throughout the year. Additional educational sessions and conferences on the value of therapeutic humor are presented for all hospital staff. Our Therapeutic Humor Coordinator has spoken both locally and nationally about this innovative Rochester General Health System program, and is available for presentations on therapeutic humor to healthcare professionals and the community.
If you secretly yearn to wear grease paint and size 50 shoes, then maybe you would be interested in joining Rochester General Hospital’s troop of specially-trained “Caring Clowns” that visit patients several times each week. Clown classes (Clownology I) will be held at Rochester General for a series of seven classes, offered on a regular basis. All are invited to participate and the only prerequisite is that you have “a heart full of fun and laughter.”
The Therapeutic Humor Program is funded by a grant from the Rochester General Hospital Foundation.
