Flower About Us
One of the many strengths of Children's is the pediatric expertise that comes together for a patient's care -- physicians, nurses, social work professionals and others, all experienced in serving the special needs of injured children and their families. Because trauma cases are often complex, medical and surgical physicians from emergency medicine, neurosurgery, orthopedics and other specialties coordinate with the Trauma team as needed.
Our Goals
  • To provide the most advanced pediatric trauma care available anywhere
  • To provide safe transportation for critically ill children
  • To prevent childhood injuries through our Injury Prevention Program
  • To provide educational programs to physicians, nurses, emergency response personnel, radiology technologists and allied health professionals throughout Massachusetts on the proper care and treatment for children who have been injured
  • To evaluate and treat children who've suffered a traumatic brain injury through our Brain Injury Program
