An Exciting New Era for Children’s Hospital

Children’s Hospital services will be consolidated under one roof at Columbia Regional Hospital to offer Missouri children comprehensive health care in a single, convenient location In October 2008, University of Missouri Health Care announced our plan to consolidate Children’s Hospital services under one roof at Columbia Regional Hospital. The move of Children’s Hospital will offer Missouri children comprehensive health care in a single, convenient location.

The move will take place in two phases. In the first phase, Children’s Hospital will occupy new pediatric and adolescent units at Columbia Regional Hospital, with 100 percent private patient rooms. The Children’s Blood Disorders and Cancer Unit, pediatric short-stay unit, pediatric intensive care unit and pediatric cardiology clinic also will move during the first phase, which is scheduled to be completed in spring 2010.

In the second phase of the Children’s Hospital move, pediatric specialty outpatient clinics will move to a new home at Columbia Regional Hospital.

“Our new home will offer patients and their families high-quality care in a kid-friendly, convenient location,” said Timothy Fete, MD, director of Children’s Hospital, chair of the Department of Child Health and Children’s Miracle Network Professor in Pediatrics. “The location at Columbia Regional Hospital will provide single-stop children’s health services, 100 percent private, newly renovated patient rooms and easy access by Highway 63 and Interstate 70.”
