Flu and respiratory virus season is here. To prevent the spread of these diseases, visitor restrictions have gone into effect.  Until further notice, visiting children under the age of 12 will only be allowed in the cafeteria and outpatient clinics until further notice.  They will not be allowed to visit admitted patients.  Thank you for your patience and understanding as we take these necessary precautions to limit the impact on our patients and the community. You can keep up to date on the restrictions on our Infection Prevention page.

Pediatric Inpatient Unit in Dignity Health's Mercy Gilbert Medical Center 

Our new Pediatric Inpatient Unit in Dignity Health's Mercy Gilbert Medical Center, featuring 22 private patient rooms, opens Oct. 1. Around-the-clock pediatric coverage by Phoenix Children’s Hospital physicians is available for children requiring observation or inpatient care. Every doctor, nurse and pharmacist is 100% for children.

Every day, families come to Phoenix Children's and discover their health insurance does not cover all of their needs.  It is extremely important to choose a plan that covers the right providers and procedures, especially when your child has specific healthcare needs. Learn what you need to know and how we can help before deciding what plan to purchase.
