The Palm Beach Children’s Hospital at St. Mary’s Medical Center recently held an open house to reveal the new décor of its pediatric emergency room. Updates include “under the sea” themed patient rooms and a floor-to-ceiling banner featuring the hospital’s new campaign messaging, “We Heal for Them.” The ER was designed specifically to make children and their parents feel as safe and comfortable as possible.
In addition, the Palm Beach Children’s Hospital has dedicated Child Life Specialists who provide support and advocacy for patients and their families during their time in the pediatric ER and throughout their entire stay. These developmental experts work to normalize children’s hospital experience and provide them with activities that help them understand the treatment process.
