Kids and Grownups at Work
School and work responsibilities don’t stop when your child is sick or sidelined by a medical condition. At Phoenix Children’s, we support kids and adults in many ways, including just a few listed below:
- Scheduling assistance – Complex care requires juggling schedules with staggered or same-day appointments. When you check in, ask for a printed itinerary for your child and ways to make scheduling more manageable.
- Notes for the boss, teacher or principal – Please ask your doctor if you need any notes directly related to your child’s health needs and other accommodations.
- Workspaces, internet and charging stations – Stay connected to your work or other needs. We’ll help with resources and details, including tech assistance, work areas, office equipment, notary services and an age-appropriate in-room tablet device for your child.
- Libraries and learning – You can find quiet libraries, multimedia resources and more, including tools to learn about your child’s condition or other areas of interest. Look for additional articles and updates on Phoenix Children’s Bright Futures blog.
- 1 Darn Cool School – Our school program is here for K-12 kids who are hospitalized beyond five days. Special-ed options are also available.
