Children's National Medical Center is much more than a hospital. We are a resource for you and your family. Sure we're the region's leading provider of pediatric inpatient care, but we do a lot to help parents raise healthy kids, too. In fact, we'd be pleased if your child never had to be an inpatient at all.

With community education programs and classes, and partnerships with other local organizations, Children's works hard to ensure your family is safe and healthy. We've even provided helpful tips here, on our web site, to help you care for the minor illnesses and injuries that are synonymous with being a child.

And, through our Ask A Doctor Program, if you don't find what you need here you can always e-mail us at tbear@cnmc.org and we'll have one of our specialists help you get the information you need.
