"I'll never forget what she did. This physician should not have the power that she misuses. I received a letter from the state of Illinois, department of family services, stating her claim was UNFOUNDED. She was pissed I wanted to be seen at a different hospital and reported me to keep me there... when she returned she tried to apologize for her premature action, but the damage was done. I blame her for it all. Forcing a hospital stay upon me and my baby, stressing me completely out to the point my milk stopped half way thru, keeping me away from my oldest, and the extreme judgement I received from her staff undeserved! My child was always safe with me, and needed his tongue-tie cut, outpatient.Her horrible attempts at trying to build rapport, were insulting in the least. She's not recommended! I also blame her for the trauma... I was able to exceed their benchmarks while admitted.. but being home again was not easy and I couldn't produce knowing I had an active case. I was tricked into arriving at the hospital, and now have no trust in medicine. Especially the kind being dolled out by caucastic females, that don't like to be told no. As promised.. I'm making it my business to follow her until there's justice for her judgement"

What is Pediatric Hospital Medicine?

Pediatric hospital medicine is inpatient care for children. Pediatric hospitalists are physicians trained to care for acute and chronic diseases in infants, children, and adolescents. Pediatric hospitalists treat children in a number of different hospital departments, including newborn nursery, labor and delivery, and emergency department. After a child is admitted to the hospital, the child may be visited by a pediatric hospitalist to coordinate his or her treatment.

Pediatric hospitalists regularly monitor patients and assess patients' health throughout their hospital stay. Pediatric hospitalists provide direct patient care as needed, such as prescribing medications, ordering tests, and performing procedures like laceration repair and catheter placement. Pediatric hospitalists communicate with patients' pediatricians, as well as specialists such as pediatric radiologists and pediatric surgeons.

Pediatric hospitalists strive to enhance children's hospital experience by improving patient health, safety, and engagement. For example, an improvement could be a data-driven initiative to increase in-hospital vaccination rates to surpass those of the previous year. Other changes may be prompted by observation, such as when a pediatric hospitalist notices that additional family or child-life services are needed. Pediatric hospitalists are ultimately responsible for establishing and enforcing pediatric hospital care standards.

When a patient's hospitalization is complete, pediatric hospitalists help ensure a successful return home. They schedule upcoming medical appointments and update the patient's care team accordingly. Pediatric hospitalists frequently work with pediatric subspecialists, child-life specialists, and therapists, among other medical professionals.
