Our bright, cheerful space provides all single-bed rooms for inpatients. The floor features 16 general pediatric beds, 4 progressive care beds and 4 intensive care beds. These large, ergonomic rooms include a full bathroom and child-friendly shower, and plenty of space for the patient's family members along with the health care team. We encourage at least one parent to stay with their child during the child’s hospital stay as we strongly promote family centered care.
The pediatric unit is equipped with a variety of state of the art technology and equipment to assist in the quality care of everyday tasks for even the sickest patients.
To make a child feel safe during their stay, we try not to do any procedures — especially painful ones — in the room. Instead, this treatment room is used for procedures such as spinal taps and IV starts. Its dim lighting and entertaining artwork help provide distraction.
A dedicated family lounge gives families a place to take a break. Often times, the cafeteria seems too far away for a parent, this space allows families to share a meal or have some quiet time while still remaining close to their sick child.
At NCH we are continuing to expand and develop our services to keep our children close to home and near their families when they require hospitalization. We look forward to working with you.
