Sunny Hill Health Centre

Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children

Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children is a rehabilitation centre for children and youth with disabilities. Located in Vancouver, Sunny Hill provides specialized health services to children and youth throughout British Columbia.

Sunny Hill is a “tertiary referral centre” because our role is to complement the health care services that are provided in your community – the primary and secondary care providers.

Sunny Hill uses Telehealth, an information technology, to collect, organize, and disseminate information for patient assessment, diagnosis, and treatment. It is also used to deliver education and share research on a range of disability related issues.

Sunny Hill supports children and youth, from birth to their 19th birthday, with:

Complex developmental needs. These children may have difficulties with language, cognitive and motor abilities. They may also have difficulty with sensory, social and/or emotional development.

Conditions primarily affecting physical or motor development, including cerebral palsy, children who are non-verbal, children who have difficulty swallowing, children who require mobility assistance, children with visual impairments, or children who need adaptive recreation.

Identified inpatient needs, such as orthopedic post-operative needs and acute brain injury rehabilitation.

Details about how to refer a child to the Health Centre can be found on the Sunny Hill Referrals page.
