When children are not feeling well, we help them get better at Kaweah Delta Medical Center. With a 12-bed pediatric unit on site, we offer growing families in our community the very finest in health care for their children, from birth through adolescence.

Getting Here

Our pediatric unit is located on the third floor on the east side of Kaweah Delta Medical Center. To enter our pediatric unit, take the elevators just north of the entrance to Kaweah Delta Medical Center’s Mineral King Wing located at 400 W. Mineral King Ave. Our unit is located just north of the elevators on the right side of the hallway; please use the call box to notify our nursing staff that you have arrived.

Pediatric Hospitalists

Our staff understands and connects with children in a way that they can understand and that families can appreciate. It all happens under the watchful eye of pediatric hospitalists, who are in-house and readily available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week thanks to our pediatric hospitalist program.

What’s a Pediatric Hospitalist? It’s a pediatrician who works primarily in a hospital. This doctor is in constant contact with your child’s regular pediatrician and other physicians and providers involved in your child’s care.  

A Better Stay With Play

And what would a pediatric unit be without a 24-hour-a-day playroom? Our playroom is stocked with everything from stuffed animals to toys to books thanks to generous donations and community support. To make our patients feel at home, and their families feel welcome, our rooms are equipped with bench seats and refrigerators for visiting families.

The clinical aspects of Maternal Child Health Services are complemented by a variety of prenatal and pediatric education classes for the community.
