Preparing for a Hospital Stay

Meals

Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center is proud to offer room service dining for patients. You will find a child-friendly menu in your hospital room. However, meals on the psychiatric units are buffets, eaten family style.

Family members and visitors will find many options in the food court, in Location D of the concourse.
