Observation Room

Some patients examined in the Pediatric Emergency Department are placed in the pediatric emergency observation room so that their clinical findings can be closely monitored and a decision can be made on whether to admit them to the hospital before discharge. After your child is taken into the observation room, tests and monitoring will be carried out by the physicians on the pediatric emergency team, and vital signs and other monitoring will be performed by the pediatric emergency nurses. The physician responsible for your child's care in this area may be different.
