Dear Parent,
The mission
of St. John’s Children’s Hospital is simple — to meet the healthcare needs of
children and their families in central and southern Illinois by providing high
quality, coordinated care for children with acute and chronic conditions through
inpatient, ambulatory and community-based programs.
We embrace
the model of family-centered care and believe that by making families more
active in their child’s healthcare decisions, we are improving the way health
care is delivered.
More
than
50 pediatric specialists and surgeons are part of our medical team. They
provide care in the areas of hematology-oncology, cardiology, critical care,
behavioral pediatrics, gastroenterology, genetics, infectious diseases,
neonatology, nephrology, neurology, pulmonology, developmental rehabilitation
and various pediatric surgical areas. The
Southern Illinois University (SIU) School of Medicine and community
physicians partner with St. John’s to provide this care.
St. John’s
Children’s Hospital is a member of the National Association of Children’s
Hospitals and Related Institutions.
We have the area’s only Pediatric Intensive
Care Unit and the region’s only Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
Because
we are all about kids, we have dedicated services to meet your child’s special
needs. These include a sedation service, dedicated pediatric ambulance and
transport team, child life specialists, and staff specially trained to take care
of your most precious resource – your child.
To find out
more about St. John’s Children’s Hospital, please visit our website:
www.sjchildrens.org.
We look
forward to working with groups such as Springfield Moms to promote wellness and
safety in our community.
Wishing you
good health,
