Lehigh Valley (Pa.) Reilly Children's Hospital opened a new 30-room inpatient pediatric unit Feb. 7, according to WFMZ 69 News.
All rooms in the 24,000-square-foot unit will be private and will feature a sleeper sofa for parents to spend the night and a desk for them to work.
"When a child needs hospital care, it’s a difficult time for families," said J. Nathan Hagstrom, MD, physician-in-chief of Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital. "With this unit, we give families peace of mind from knowing they will receive quality care close to home in a place designed for the specific needs of children and their loved ones."
