Summary

In processes such as illness, hospital, medical procedures, and nursing interventions, the fears experienced by children should be reduced before the procedure. It may be more effective to give interventions to reduce children's fears in a school setting rather than in a complex environment such as a hospital. In this context, there is a need for experimental studies that reveal the effect of therapeutic play on nursing interventions and fear of medical materials in preschool children.
