ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Santa Claus and his elves brought holiday cheer to Nemours Children\u2019s Hospital in Orlando on Monday, December 15. They brightened the day by washing windows and spending time with the patients, spreading joy and warmth throughout the hospital.<\/p>\n

The holiday event included the window-washing team from A-1 Orange Exterior Building Services, who rappelled down the hospital\u2019s exterior dressed as Santa and his helpers. This effort aims to entertain and boost the morale of young patients and their families during the holiday season.<\/p>\n

Window washers dressed as Santa\u2019s elves were hanging around all day, washing the windows of the new Nemours Children\u2019s Hospital in Lake Nona and bringing holiday cheer to visiting families and patients. Many of the children made their way outside to get a peek. Others watched from inside. Most of Nemours is floor to ceiling windows so it\u2019ll take the elves most of the week to get them all cleaned. <\/p>\n

A-1 Orange Exterior Building Services has partnered with Nemours Children\u2019s Hospital since 2012, offering biannual window-washing. The crew\u2019s cheerful appearance is a wonderful tradition that brings joy and comfort to young patients.<\/p>\n

The hospital\u2019s Child Life program hosts this event to help make the hospital a more comfortable and enjoyable place for children, offering fun non-medical activities and playtime.<\/p>\n

Patients and their families have the wonderful opportunity to watch and interact with Santa and his elves right from their hospital rooms or while they\u2019re waiting for appointments. It truly adds a magical touch to their day, making the experience more joyful and memorable.<\/p>\n
