Physician pediatric emergency medicine specialists are on site from 10:00 am to 2:00 am daily and augment the care provided by the general emergency medicine specialists on site 24 hours per day. Pediatric sub-specialists from the medical staffs of both Newton-Wellesley Hospital and the Massachusetts General Hospital for Children work together to provide specialty consultation when necessary.
One of the unique aspects of the pediatric emergency room is the onsite presence of a child life specialist during all hours of operation. The child life specialist interacts with children, family members and other staff members to create a more pediatric-friendly atmosphere and better emergency room experience.
