Mary Free Bed’s (MFB) Pediatric Rehabilitation and Therapy Program (the Child & Adolescent Program) was awarded the Pediatric Specialty Program accreditation by the Commission of Accreditation for Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF), which recognizes the hospital as a facility offering family-centered care. But at MFB, family-centered care isn’t a policy or procedure, it’s just the way we’ve always done things. We treat your baby, child, or teen and you as part of our family, offering comfort, respect, and sensitivity.
You, the caregiver, will have needs. Because you know your child best, you’ll be considered part of the team. You’ll need information, too – information about your child’s condition, treatment, and impact on your family. Our doctors, nurses, and therapists will answer all your questions and educate you on the best ways to care for your child. If you need more information, Mary Free Bed offers internet access on the inpatient floor and an on-site medical education library you’re free to use.
