Pediatric Unit
The mission of the Pediatric Unit is to provide for the medical, psychosocial, and developmental needs of all children and their families in a safe and nurturing environment. The Pediatric department provides family-centered care which invites parent participation and decision making in the care of their children. Last year, the Pediatric Unit had over 10,000 patient days treating a variety of diagnosis ranging from feeding problems, to respiratory concerns, to neurological issues among a multitude of other diagnosis.
The Pediatric Unit employs a multidisciplinary staff specifically trained in the medical, emotional and developmental needs of children. The Pediatric unit provides specialized equipment in a range of sizes and special technology and monitoring systems designed specifically for children. Our newly expanded Pediatric Units boasts many amenities important in maintaining family dynamics. This includes a family kitchen, resource library for educational materials, a family conference room, a playroom, and a teen room. Each patient’s room features a built in day bed for family, a built in desk with internet capabilities, DVD player, and plentiful storage area.
Children on the Pediatric Unit receive the highest quality care from a professional team noted for their compassion, dedication and commitment.
