Safety
Success Story of a Children's Hospital
Benjamin
As my body went into a seizure, maybe I thought to myself why didn't I put my helmet on? I don't remember the fall. All I can remember is telling my mom that I was skating downtown with my friends for dinner. Then my head smashed into the asphalt. Lights out.
Miller Children’s Hospital Long Beach knows that parents trust us with their child’s care while they are in the hospital, and we want to assure you that keeping patients safe is a top priority.
Miller Children’s encourages parents to:
- Know their child’s care teams’ schedules.
- Learn the names of the different members of their child’s care teams on each shift.
- Feel confident to ask questions to feel as safe and comfortable as possible.
However, Miller Children’s also wants to help ensure that your family will never have to bring a child into the hospital, because of unnecessary injury or accident. The Miller Children’s safety coalition wants parents and their families to know important injury prevention measures and car seat safety to help keep all children safe.
