This article has been developed in a public hospital in the department of Nariño, Colombia, as part of the training process in occupational therapy, based on sensory stimulation, which favors occupational performance skills and sensory functions, managing to relate emotional responses to the stimuli provided. The project involved 201 patients and was developed in three phases: first with a survey of the patients’ interests, then with the design of personalized sensory stimuli, and finally with the analysis of the results. These interventions benefited the emotions and affectivity of each of the users, obtaining a motivation that contributed to their recovery; therefore, it is important to develop strategies that allow professionals to identify intervention activities and their management in the hospital context.
