John H. Ammon Medical Education Center
Adjacent to the Center for Heart & Vascular Health is the John H. Ammon Medical Education Center, which houses 13 classrooms, a 240-seat auditorium equipped with audio-visual and video-conferencing technology, a 7,000-square-foot medical library and a high-tech physician simulation lab that allows doctors and residents to train in a realistic, simulated hospital setting.
Center for Women’s & Children’s Health
Opened in 2020, the spacious Center for Women’s & Children’s Health is an eight-story, approximately 400,000 square foot tower designed to support and enhance the most up-to-date, evidence-based models of care, with improved integration of services and the space to offer innovative patient-centered care for mothers, babies and families. One of the most significant features of the Center is a state-of-the-art neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), featuring private rooms with sleep-in space for families. It’s one of the only hospitals in the United States to provide “couplet care” in the NICU, keeping the mother and baby together even if they both require medical care. The Center also includes a multi-level Ronald McDonald Room to support families with infants who are in intensive care.
Pediatric Care Center
Kids are a lot of things, but predictable isn’t always one of them. When things go wrong, ChristianaCare is here with dependable emergency care made just for our youngest patients. The Pediatric Care Center can handle injuries, serious illnesses and behavioral health emergencies, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The Pediatric Care Center – a Pediatric Emergency Center for kids - offers a calm, family-friendly environment for urgent, emergency, and short-term inpatient care.
