The UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Summit location is a specialty medical campus less than 2 miles from the Oakland main hospital. It's equipped with state-of-the-art technology and serves up to 53 hospital patients.
Every patient has a private room with a toilet, and many rooms offer expansive views to create a quiet and healing environment. A sleep chair-bed, pillow and blanket are provided to allow one parent or guardian to spend the night in their child's room. Summit also houses a pharmacy, a classroom and playroom, and a waiting room for families.
