Providence Services for Children

 
Providence Services for Children

Overview

When a child needs medical attention, the whole family is affected. That’s why Providence Health & Services provides specialized medical care and support services to meet the needs of parents and families.

Our physicians, nurses and therapists are skilled experts who know that children are not small adults. Their bodies and minds react differently to injury, illness, medications and therapy. You can trust Providence to give your child the best care, because we would want nothing less if we were treating our own child.
