In addition to typical health care services, Children’s Minnesota’s provides a wide variety of services and amenities designed to care for your whole family. For example:
- Child life specialists, music therapists and the pet therapy program help kids understand their medical procedures and physical therapy by providing fun, educational activities.
- Financial counselors, interpreters and social workers to help you navigate the many questions you may have about your child’s care.
- Sibling play areas and the in-house TV channel, Star Studio, provide a creative outlet and a break from some of the stress that can come with a hospital stay.
- Welcome and family services staff can help connect you to all the services and amenities that meet your family’s needs.
