Providing family-centered care
As hospitalists, we practice family-centered care. This means we see your family as an important part of your child’s care team. Each morning, we do family-centered rounds, where we meet with every patient and family. During this time, we will talk with you about how your child is doing, conduct a physical exam of your child, and come up with a plan for the day. We appreciate hearing your input and questions during this time, and throughout the day, because we realize that you are the expert on your child. We keep the child at the center of care at all times and make sure the family has a primary and active role in the treatment plan.
Pediatric hospitalists are available at all times to answer questions and address any concerns that arise. Your hospital experience is important to us, so we strive towards making it the best possible!
