She sang to patients at Hasbro Children's Hospital.
Pop star Taylor Swift made a surprise visit to Hasbro Children’s Hospital in Providence Monday.
"Taylor spent lots of time visiting with our young inpatients ... and even played a song for the kids on our 6th floor med/psych unit," the hospital said in a statement. "It was such a special day for a lot of our kids, and we are so thankful to Taylor and her dad for choosing to spend their time with us and put smiles on so many faces!"
Sandra Cariker, of Attleboro, Mass., was at the hospital with her 9-year-old son, Nathan, according to WJAR-TV. Swift visited Nathan.
“It was something we'll never forget," Cariker told WJAR. "My son (has) been talking about it all day.”
Swift has ties to Rhode Island; she owns a home in Westerly.
