New medical staff common room
On Wednesday, April 6, Children's Hospital Boston's Department of Medicine unveiled the new Medical Staff Common Room on the first floor of the Enders Building. Renovated to create an "office away from your office" when community physicians and researchers are at the hospital, the room has desks, computers, a printer, lockers, tables and chairs.
