‘Building on a Dream’ Update
The Hospital's Master Facility Plan was unanimously approved by the Board of County Commissioners on July 26, 2007 enabling the hospital to move ahead with the design of planned new structures that will make it possible for patients in critical care units to receive care in private rooms.
Miami Children's Hospital is incorporateing green strategies. We will be installing a system to recycle run-off water for irrigation and will be utilizing environmentally friendly materials in planning construction.
Miami Children's Hospital looks forward to continuing a positive and collaborative relationship with Schenley Park residents for the benefit of the children of Florida and our neighbors in the lovely community that we share.
