Family-centered care At Children's Hospital of Wisconsin we provide family-centered care because we know that a child's health impacts the whole family. We create a partnership with families, talking openly and often about their child's care and their personal beliefs. Our goal is to support families by building on their strengths.
What happens at a clinic visit? At the first clinic visit, your child will be seen by a board certified pediatric gastroenterologist and either a nurse specializing in gastroenterology or a pediatric nurse practitioner. During this visit we will record a medical history and perform a physical examination of the child. We will determine what, if any, diagnostic tests need to be done. A plan of care will be outlined and teaching provided.
Children's Hospital of Wisconsin now offers an accommodations program to assist out-of-the area families with travel arrangements. For more information, please visit the Family Accommodations Program page.
