Mott's Milestones
C.S. Mott Children's Hospital has been a leader in the care of children for decades. Below, we provide you reasons why you should choose us for your child's health care.
Your child’s well-being
- An outdoor playdeck, activity centers and other playrooms provide social and recreational activities so important to children’s mental health and development.
- Child life specialists, social workers, spiritual care providers and psychologists help children and families understand and cope with what’s ahead.
- Mott offers in-hospital education to help kids keep up with schoolwork while in the hospital.
- Mott Family Network computers are available – for school, play, and to stay connected – during a hospital stay.
Your family’s well-being
- Patient and Family-Centered Care is our cooperative effort to engage and empower families and patients to participate in their own health care. It’s a philosophy that recognizes, respects and promotes the diversity, strength and culture of family relationships.
- Mott has a Family Resource Center for families to learn to care for their child as well as other family members and themselves.
- Child and Family Life professionals provide programs geared toward the whole family to help kids and their siblings with coping, growth and development during the healing process.
Mott offers many opportunities for patients and their families to work side-by-side with faculty and staff to identify patient care concerns. The Patient and Family-Centered Care program is continually recruiting volunteers to joint this effort. E-mail Mott-PFCC@med.umich.edu or call 734-763-5770.
