Specialty Pediatric Care
Facility in Southern California
Our specialty pediatric hospital and long-term pediatric care facility in Orange County, California provides children with a non-institutional environment that feels like home while they receive highly specialized care. Creating a safe and family-friendly space allows children to focus on healing, rather than on being away from home.
With kid-friendly décor such as children’s murals painted on the walls and the use of primary colors, young patients feel right at home here. We have also designed the space with features to accommodate family visits such as large window seating in patient rooms.
We provide care for children who are recovering from complex medical issues stemming from a brain injury, chronic disease or any other life-altering event. We also provide pediatric ventilator nursing care for patients who need it.
Our team of experienced medical professionals creates individualized care plans for each of our young patients.
They consider the specifics of each child’s situation to create treatment plans that are highly effective and that utilize the latest technologies and equipment.
These care plans evolve as the patient improves, always providing the best care for their current condition.
