Seattle Children's at EvergreenHealth
We understand it's no fun for your child—or you—to spend time in the hospital. That's why we provide pediatric care in an environment that meets your child's needs for compassion and reassurance.
We encourage you to be actively involved in your child's care. Our staff will explain every phase of treatment so you can be a partner in the healing process. Your child will feel more comfortable having their parents involved, and you will feel more confident caring for your child once you return home.
You can even spend the night on the daybed in your child's room.
Our Pediatric Experts
Our pediatric hospitalists—the physicians who care for children in the hospital—are all on staff at Seattle Children's and work at EvergreenHealth as part of a collaboration with Children's. Parents appreciate that their kids can get care from Seattle Children's pediatric specialists at EvergreenHealth, which is closer to home.

The pediatric hospitalists all completed their three-year pediatric residencies at nationally known children's hospitals. They can handle a wide range of medical and surgical conditions in children from birth to adolescence.
The pediatric hospitalists practice at the hospital, so they are right there to order tests, interpret the results and order any additional treatments 24/7.
They keep in close contact with your child's primary care physician, providing a complete record of their hospital care and suggestions for follow-up care after discharge.
Pediatric Staff
Our pediatric nurses are highly trained in caring for children across a wide range of specialties and bring deep expertise, compassion, and dedication to every aspect of their work. They regularly participate in continuing education to enhance their pediatric expertise and stay current with best practices.
Through our partnership with Seattle Children's, pediatric specialists—including cardiologists, neurologists, and surgeons—are available for consultations.
A Home-Like Place to Stay
