Patient Guidebook
We understand a hospital visit can be overwhelming. At Children’s Health℠, we’re always striving to find ways to help patients and patient families have the best experience possible. That’s why we’ve created the Children’s Health patient guidebook, a concise guide to our services and amenities at our Dallas and Plano campuses, visitor resources, frequently asked questions and much more.
The guidebook includes frequently asked questions, a discharge checklist, a medicine tracker, information about our MyChart patient portal and instructions for ordering food to go online from childrens.Nutrislice.com.
Use the guidebook to ensure you’re familiar with important information such as patient and family rights and responsibilities, privacy information, a discharge checklist, guidance on administering antibiotics safely and billing and payment options.
