The Child Life / Child Development Program

The Child Life / Child Development
Program was established in 1968 in recognition of the unique needs of
pediatric patients, especially the critically and chronically ill.
The program was one of the first in the country and continues to be a
model for other medical centers. A commitment to continuity of care
and a highly developed volunteer program are two facets that distinguish
the program from others.
The program includes a professional staff
with Bachelors or Masters Degrees in specific areas such as Child Life,
Child Development or Education. Most of the specialists are
professionally certified and affiliated with the National Child Life
Council.
