A visit to
the hospital can be a very frightening experience for children. Lourdes recognizes the sensitivity of
this situation and responds with compassion and caring.
A parent is allowed to stay with the child
in the room to ease the child’s fear and ease the parents anxieties.
To ensure your child's comfort
during their stay at Lourdes, a variety of special touches designed especially for our younger patients
are available. Each bed has a personal TV. A video game cart is available for the little
gamer.
The pediatric unit has a playroom with toys for
children of all ages. Videos, magazines, puzzles, books are available.
