Housing and Transportation
On-site and Local Accommodations
Bedside:
We realize that a parent's presence during your child's stay at the hospital is reassuring, therefore, we encourage one parent/guardian to stay at the bedside. We provide a single cot or sleeping chair, bed linens and shower facilities for the comfort and convenience of the staying parent.
Parent Apartments:
On-site accommodations are available to patient families. The Parent Accommodation Center offers 10 hotel-like rooms for parents and guardians to stay while their child is in the hospital. The center is linked directly to the hospital by skyway, allowing parent and guardians to visit their child 24-hours a day.
Transportation
Transportation to and from the hospital is often provided by Shriners Hospital volunteers. These caring individuals provide rides to and from local airports, bus and train stations, weekdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Arrangements for assistance can be made prior to your visit through the hospital's care coordination office at (612) 596-6130 or (888) 293-2832 (toll free).
