Pediatric Care

- Newborn and infant care
- Adolescent care
- Diagnosis and treatment for acute and chronic illness
- Camp, school and sports physicals
- Immunizations and screenings
- Preventive care
- Pediatric surgery
At Poplar Bluff Regional Medical Center, we believe that family-focused care is fundamental to a child's treatment and recovery. That's why pediatric patients requiring hospitalization receive specialized care in a dedicated unit staffed with pediatricians and specially trained pediatric nurses.
We go the extra mile to make sure every child on the pediatric unit is safe. Each child receives an arm bracelet with a sensor that will automatically alarm if a child is taken too close to the exit doors without hospital or parent permission.
It is our focus to make every child as comfortable as possible while they are in the hospital. Special kid-friendly menus are available to help children feel more at home. Rooms in the pediatric unit are equipped with a convertible chair that folds out to a bed for parents staying overnight with their children.
