Nursing Services
Nurses at Hasbro Children's Hospital practice by the philosophy that
they helped to create: Excellence of Caring. They are proud of the
honesty, respect and fairness that they provide to each child and family, and
they are equally as proud of the building they helped to create. Working
together with the architects, nurses provided key insight into designing a
state-of-the-art hospital that would be "enjoyed" by the
families that were treated at HCH.
More than 200 nurses work exclusively in
pediatrics. The majority of nurses work on the inpatient
care floors, which are divided by age group. This allows the nurses on
each unit to become very familiar with the specific needs each group
requires.
Nurses on the patient care floors are dedicated to the
children they treat. Expertise in pediatrics is evidenced
in the number of nurses who successfully complete advanced education and
certification. Certification in pediatrics, oncology and emergency
medicine are just a few of the various merits attained by HCH's highly
motivated staff.
Working together to create a
family-centered environment, and value and acceptance of diversity in culture
and heritage, HCH nurses create an environment "Surrounded by
Caring."
