The Child Life Team
Our staff consists of Child Life Specialists who hold a minimum
of a bachelor's degree in child life, therapeutic recreation or
psychology, and have specialized training to recognize and address
the issues that surround hospitalized children and families. The
staff is certified in either Child Life or Therapeutic Recreation,
or both. We have four full-time and one part-time Child Life specialist.
We provide coverage for all pediatric patients at the Children's
Medical Center, to include the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit,
general care units for infants/toddlers and preschoolers, and
adolescents, and the Pediatric Same Day Suite. Child life specialists
cover several outpatient clinics, including the Infectious Disease
clinic, Pediatric Surgery clinic and Pediatric Hematology/Oncology
clinic.
Our program is nonprofit, and Child Life services are provided
seven days a week, 365 days a year.
