Your Visit

 
Coming to the hospital can be a stressful experience for children and their family. We believe that children will be less anxious if they are prepared. Talk honestly with your child about why being in hospital is necessary, and about what he or she will see, do and feel in the hospital.

BC Children’s Hospital and Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children are smoke-free.

If you are involved in running a family support group within British Columbia, you may be eligible for funding through the Family Support Group/Network Funding. 

The Partners in Care Family Advisory council provides support for families and helps you understand how you can particpate in your child's care.
