Due to the great advances in medical research and treatments, a large percentage of children overcome it, hence promotion, prevention and treatment constitute a necessary challenge to assume based on the analysis of its dimensions. The objective of the work is to design a system of psychconapeutic activities to improve care for oncological patients at the Provincial Pediatric Hospital of Camagüey. The methodology used was quantitative (document analysis, interview, surveys, observation, among cons). The conceptual elements are theoretically based, the psychosocial and didactic issues of its design are exposed, as well as the assessment by specialists. The results introduced into practice from the Oncology Ward were favorably appreciated by patients and family members in 10 sessions that included topics such as self-esteem and assertiveness.
