Activity rooms can be found on every inpatient floor. They are shared by children, teens, young adults, and parents, and are open during the day for relaxing or taking a break from the hospital routine. Child Life specialists and unit volunteers provide developmental play, games, computers, art projects, music, and other creative and educational activities at scheduled times.
Your child must be supervised by a parent, staff person, or volunteer while in the activity rooms. Parents and visitors are welcome to participate in activities. Because the activity rooms are places for children to temporarily escape the stress of the hospital, all medical examinations or other actions that may cause upset are prohibited in these areas.
