It is geared for children 10 and older. It includes discussion with staff, a tour, and the chance to see a real operating room. If you are unable to come to the adolescent program, you can come to the Monday program. However, the information is geared toward younger children. Older children and teens spend time talking with staff and learning about medical equipment and procedures.
Parents have an opportunity to talk with staff and ask questions.
All children, teens, and their families take a tour of the facility. Check in at the second floor of the Day Surgery Building located in the Ritchie Medical Plaza. Pre-registration is requested. We recommend parking in the Green Ramp adjacent to the Ritchie Medical Plaza. Parking fees apply.
