Superior Intensive Care For Your Little Ones

Traditional Care In a High Tech Setting
Specially designed for our little patients and their families, our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) is equipped with the latest technologies, including full life support and monitoring for children of all ages. Though the setting is decidedly high tech, the care your child receives is extremely traditional – with friendly, caring nurses and support staff and knowledgeable doctors who genuinely care about the health and healing of your child.

Your Child Is In Good Hands
Children who are brought to the PICU at Disney Children’s Hospital at Florida Hospital usually include those who are having severe problems breathing, have certain heart defects, complications from diabetes or are involved in a serious accident. Our PICU caregivers are trained to deal specifically with these critical cases. Even in the most serious instances, our professional team will help you and your child with the stress and anxiety while administering world-class care.

Your Partner In Healing
Once your child has been admitted to PICU, a lot will be happening very quickly. While it may seem overwhelming at first, the staff at Disney Children’s Hospital at Florida Hospital wants you to ask questions. We feel it is vital to your child’s health and healing that you are heavily involved with their care at all times. Our physicians, nurses and support staff will be more than happy to answer your questions. Also, you’ll have access to the hospital’s chaplain, social workers and counselors during your child’s stay to help you with the psychological and emotional aspects of illness or injury. Rest assured, you are never alone when your child is most at need at Disney Children’s Hospital at Florida Hospital.
