Pediatrics
You want the best for your kids. We all do. At Rogue Regional Medical Center’s dedicated Pediatrics Department, we’re experts at caring for young people and providing knowledge, support and compassion for the whole family.
The most important care, when you need it
The only dedicated children’s health unit between Eugene and Redding, our Pediatrics Department is a “hospital within the hospital,” offering a full range of care for children ages one day to 17 completed years. We have a team of experienced pediatric physicians, nurses, therapists and other children’s health specialists to care for your child.
We also offer comprehensive follow-up care in pediatric surgery, orthopedics, neurology, hematology, nephrology, oncology and intermediate care. In addition, pediatric intensive care consults have been offered through the Oregon Health & Science University Telemedicine Network since 2010. Visiting specialists in cardiology, endocrinology, metabolism, nephrology, pulmonology, hemophilia and pediatric development travel regularly to Asante to care for young patients so that they don’t have to travel far from home.
Even in the hospital, we want kids to be kids. That’s why we have a kid-friendly environment that is focused on the whole family.
- Parents are encouraged to stay by their child’s side. We provide meal trays and sleeping arrangements for parents.
- All patient rooms have a refrigerator for family use.
- Age-appropriate snacks are offered to young patients.
- We offer several gaming systems and DVDs to help distract kids from their worries and focus on fun instead.
- Our Child Life Rooms provide spaces for all ages from toddler through adolescence, to support healing through play, relaxation and connection with family. The Active room is equipped with various toys, art supplies, a television, comfortable seating and lots of space to be a kid. The Quiet room is equipped with puzzles, books, games, a television, and gaming system and is set up to be catered to our adolescent age patients.
