Who We Are
Located on the 9th floor of Tisch Hospital at NYU Langone Medical Center, the pediatric unit provides care for newborns-21 year olds. The 59-bed unit serves children with a wide array of illnesses and provides specialized care in cardiology, hematology, neurology, oncology, reconstructive and general surgeries.

What We Do
Along with the nurses and doctors, Child Life Specialists, Recreation and Creative Arts Therapists work on the unit to provide a safe environment for children to ask questions and express their emotions. Child Life services are designed to help children and their families become familiar with the hospital environment and allay fears that often accompany a stay in the medical center. Various programs are provided to meet the emotional and developmental needs of the children.
