FOR THOSE WHO TRANSPORT TO UH / GEAUGA HOSPITALS In order to provide a better environment for children in the emergency department, the Pediatric Emergency Department at UHCMC will be moving across the hall to its own space on October 8th, 2009. EMS providers should continue to park in the ambulance bay and transport patients through the adult emergency department. Upon reaching what was the previously the pediatric ED, providers will need to go through the double doors, turn right, and look for the signs on the left indicating the pediatric ED. We apologize for any difficulty this may cause, and are working on a plan for easier entry closer to the department. In the meantime, as always, we are grateful for the prehospital care you provide to our patients and thank you for bringing them to Rainbow Babies and Children’s Emergency Department.
