Penn State Hershey Children's Hospital has a new member of the family-centered care team: The Cub's Eye. This new addition is a 40-inch flat screen LCD monitor that can be found in the rotunda of the seventh floor across from the nurses' station. The idea for the Cub's Eye came from a meeting with the Children's Hospital Family Advisory Council.
Similar to the Lion's Eye (monitors providing information throughout first floor of the Medical Center), the Cub's Eye is a new tool and has been put in place to better communicate information about the Children's Hospital to visitors and patients. (more)
