Pediatric Emergency Department
Kids surprise us everyday. That’s why Hillcrest Hospital offers pediatric emergency services 24/7 in the Kathy Risman Family Pediatric Emergency Department. As the only 24-hour pediatric emergency department on the east side, we are committed to providing superior care to your child.
Pediatric Emergency Medicine Network
Our services are part of the Children’s Hospital Pediatric Emergency Medicine Network, bringing together the strengths of Cleveland Clinic Children’s Hospital, their outpatient practices, Cleveland Clinic community hospitals and independent physicians to provide our community with the highest level of coordinated care.
New Convenient Location
The Risman Pediatric Emergency Department has moved to an expanded, convenient location next to the Adult Emergency Department (ED) near the Emergency entrance. The new space offers a large, separate waiting area away from the Adult ED, with more privacy and comfort for our young patients and their families.
