Visiting a children's hospital isn't like going to an adult hospital. At Akron Children's, we have child life specialists who help you and your child cope before, during and after a medical procedure or hospital stay. We also have plenty of in-room activities for your child.
You also never know who may stop by for a visit. Whether it's a miniature Shetland pony or a golden retriever with our Doggie Brigade, our family-centered care mission is portrayed in everything we do, including making your child's hospital visit easier.
Please note that we have implemented some changes to our hospital campuses during COVID-19 to ensure the safety of our patients and their families. Learn more
While we are ranked among the best children's hospitals in the country, it's our compassionate approach to treatment that makes us truly exceptional. Through a combination of revolutionary treatments and extraordinary patient experiences, our care does more than heal. It brings the entire family together for emotional support and understanding across multiple locations to reach you in the community where you live. Learn more...
